Home›Song›TraditionBrowse ByTraditionThis page groups musical works by the religion that produced them. Wikipedia notes that "religions such as Islam, Judaism, and Sinism demonstrate this, splitting off into different forms and styles of music that depend on varying religious practices." Browsing by tradition lets a visitor read every work from one religious tradition together.FactsTraditionSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsDirectoryCategoryWell-attestedMusical Works 1TraditionFilter Results10 entriesAdherents Today MaximumAll887,000 (1)100,000,000 (1)Adherents Today MinimumAll887,000 (1)53,871,526 (1)Bankruptcy FilingsAll1 (1)Basis of the Membership FigureAllChurch-Reported Rolls (8)Independent Survey (2)National Census (2)Scholarly or Demographic Estimate (1)Basis of the Wealth FigureAllAudited Annual Report (1)Journalistic or Scholarly Estimate (2)Calendar SystemAllJulian (Old Calendar) (1)Church FamilyAllBaptist (1)Eastern Orthodox (2)Evangelical (1)Pentecostal (3)Date of Separation End YearAll1612 (1)1850 (1)1966 (1)Date of Separation Start YearAll1609 (1)1811 (1)1833 (1)1881 (1)1966 (1)Defining Doctrinal PositionAllAchintya bhedabheda: inconceivable oneness and difference (1)Achintya bhedabheda: inconceivable oneness and difference (1)Chalcedonian: two natures in the one person of Christ (Chalcedon, 451) (2)Non-trinitarian: the Nicene doctrine of the Trinity is not held (1)Rejects the Filioque: the Spirit proceeds from the Father (2)Trinitarian: one God in three persons (2)Trinitarian: one God in three persons (3)Vishnu as the supreme reality (1)GovernanceAllA single central governing body over the whole movement (1)Authority in a living teacher and their succession (2)Autonomous local bodies under a national umbrella association (1)Congregational: each congregation self-governing (2)Delegated representation from congregations up to a general conference (1)Episcopal: governed by bishops (1)No central authority (3)Self-governing churches under patriarchs, deciding in synod (1)How the Expectation Is EnforcedAllCustomary Norm (3)Preached Expectation, Not Enforced (1)Liturgical LanguageAllGeorgian (1)Greek (liturgical) (1)Sanskrit (2)The vernacular (8)Membership Figure As OfAll1979-01-01 (1)1999-01-01 (1)2010-01-01 (2)2014-01-01 (1)2015-01-01 (1)2019-01-01 (1)2019-07-03 (1)2020-01-01 (1)2022-01-01 (1)2024-01-01 (3)2024-03-18 (1)2025-01-01 (1)2025-08-04 (1)2026-08-14 (1)2026-08-16 (1)OrdinationAllAuthority conferred by initiation rather than by ordination (2)Married clergy permitted (2)Open to women and men (4)Restricted to men (4)Varies between provinces or member bodies (2)Origin Period End YearAll52 (1)337 (1)1534 (1)1612 (1)1881 (1)1897 (1)1907 (1)1914 (1)1916 (1)1966 (1)Origin Period Start YearAll49 (1)326 (1)1486 (1)1609 (1)1881 (1)1887 (1)1897 (1)1913 (1)1914 (1)1965 (1)Position on MarriageAllMarriage is held to be a lifelong, monogamous, indissoluble union; remarriage after divorce is not sanctioned while a spouse lives (1)Marriage is held to be monogamous, with remarriage after divorce sanctioned under specified conditions (2)Position on SexualityAllSame-sex orientation or practice is held to bar full membership or participation (5)Same-sex sexual relationships are held contrary to teaching; LGBT individuals are welcomed as members but not ordained, and same-sex unions are not blessed (1)Relation to the StateAllDisestablished (1)No Establishment (4)Varies by Province (2)Settlement TotalAll9,500,000 (1)Standard Rate ExpectedAllTen percent.
