Over the past two thousand years, Christianity has taken a lot of different forms. There is Roman Catholicism, Calvinism, Lutheran, Anglican, Puritan, Evangelical, Pentecostal and dozens more. Can Christ be considered in any of these groups? Which do you think best followed the teachings of Jesus Christ about the Kingdom? If Christ were to return today, what would He say to all the denominations of Christianity?

God doesn't care about the denominations of Christianity. He also doesn't really care about what kind of religions we belong to. The only thing that God really care is our heart and what we do. God came to the world through Jesus Christ in order to introduce us about God's law so that humans can understand what is right and what is wrong. God is full of justice. In order to be justifiable, He needs to let us know about His law so that we can differentiate between right and wrong. Unfortunately, humans have made things complicated by creating denominations, religions and gods.

yeah, i agree that somehow the simplicity of the gospel has been made complicated... especially by theologians.(",)

Based on the title alone Christ is Christian because it is derived from his name Christ.No one will not pass the criteria of Jesus if he will return today.Can't we see if the biggest Christian religion in the world is a true religion then the world would not be in trouble.This religion is a political business empire hiding in the mask of religion.All of the Christian religions who are practicing in one way or the other the practice of this dominant Christian religion are the sons and daughter of this religion.

Well, according to most stories I have heard, Jesus was raised a Jew so he wasn't what we would consider to be a Christian religion but, if we have the defintion that to be a Christian only means someone who believes in Jesus then yes he would have been a Christian because, assuming he did/does exist, he would believe in himself wouldn't he?
