What is the difference between Christianity and a cult?

It started as a cult, but after it gained social acceptance it then could be considered a religion.

For your interests...

"The Nicene Creed was written centuries ago to help Christians remember the important beliefs of the faith. In the Nicene Creed we identify the four marks of the Church. The four marks of the Church are not characteristics that the Church creates or develops or learns. They are qualities that Jesus Christ shares with his Church through the Holy Spirit. The four marks of the Church are that it is one, holy, catholic, and apostolic."

Way too much money to be cult. Even Scientology has proved that.

There's no comparison. The word "cult" has come to signify a religious group which is sinister. Christianity is a belief system

There are many different religions that claim to be Christian.

Who knows?

I asked myself this many years ago. I compared the two, and found little difference. IN fact I was just reading a world history book, which basically said, that before Constantine elected that Christianity become the main Roman religion it was considered a cult. Personally, I think they are the same thing. Look into the cult of Mithras, it has many of the same themes and characters as Christianity.

None. All religions are just cults based in mythologies.

One has 12 letters and the other 4 letters. Otherwise they are the same thing.
