The officer applying for the warrant must set forth in the application that sufficient 'probable cause' exists that the person named in the warrant was the one that committed the offense. The judge reviewing the warrant application must agree that the 'probable cause' is legally sufficient to support the arrest. When he signs the application it becomes the warrant and is then returned to the officer (or agency) for service.

Whats the main differences between arrest with and without a warrant?

Without a warrant you must find reasonable grounds to arrest someone, whereas with a warrant your reason to arrest the suspect already exists. Without a warrant a Police Officer can arrest anyone without permission of a Magistrate as long as they follow the correct procedures so their arrest is lawful, which is unlike an arrest with a warrant where you must be granted the warrant to be able to arrest that person. Without a warrant, a Police Officer can mess the arrest up and make it an unlawful arrest but with a warrant it is very unlikely that they make it an unlawful arrest.
