What is Christendom?
"Christendom." Webster's New International Dictionary defines Christendom as "the portion of the world in which Christianity prevails or which is governed under Christian institutions in distinction from heathen or Mohammedan lands." True Christians today do not confuse Christendom with Christianity or make them identical. They object to making Christendom mean the whole body of persons who claim to be Christian, because true Christians do not want to be part of Christendom. As a word, Christendom is used to include such countries that claim to be Christian or that have been legally called Christian as Great Britain, the United States of America, Spain, and so forth. Christendom particularly refers to the whole body of hundreds of religious sects that claim to be Christian in such lands. Eight hundred millions claim to belong to such a Christendom. Mainstream Christian beliefs, but through actions and speech prove to be false follows of Christ and true servants Of the Almighty Universal Sovereign Jehovah God. Psalm 83:18, also see Dictionary.com and do research on the name Jehovah.
