well the only difference was that the churches spoke latin back then but now they speack english.
Churches were similar to those seen today except the type of architecture would be different depending on where the church was located. The church would have been the center of town life and the ultimate authority in the lives of the people in the middle ages. Religion would play a big role in the music and art of the time period as well.

The book of revelation is doctrinally written to seven churches that will be on the earth during the time of the great tribulation. The Church of today will not be on the earth during the time that revelation unfolds on the earth. These tribulation churches will be required to believe and express faith in different ways much of the time than the Church of today. That is why much of what Christ says when speaking to these seven churches in revelation is somewhat different than what Paul wrote to the church of today in Romans, Galatians, Ephesians, ect.
All churches are the 'churches of Christ' as long as they believe in Jesus Christ, Holy God, Holy Spirit and Christianity. The Catholic Church is the Church of Christ here on earth. The Churches of Christ is also a denomination. Their churches are identified by the name Church of Christ... For example, Stuartville Church of Christ or Plat City Church of Christ.
Yes Elders are very important to churches even today.
The early churches were strong and more steadfast in their beliefs.
The churches are usually made of stone and that will last through fire, weather, and war. The ones that were wooden didn't last due to all of the reasons above. Plus, the churches you see today have been rebuilt, remodeled, and added to so they really aren't the same church that existed in the middle ages.
A non-denominational church is not affiliated with any specific Christian denomination and operates independently. An inter-denominational church, however, may have members from various Christian denominations and seeks to promote unity among different Christian traditions.
The fonts hold Holy Water so that congregants can bless and exorcise themselves as they enter church for Mass. Some Catholic Churches may also have their baptismal font in the back of the church. However, most churches today have the font in the front of the church.
Some examples of older church hymns that are still commonly sung in churches today include "Amazing Grace," "How Great Thou Art," "Holy, Holy, Holy," and "Great Is Thy Faithfulness."
The Roman Catholic Church is the largest followed by the United Methodist and Lutheran Churches.
it depends which church you mean, e.g catholic or protestant etc
