Both the African Methodist Episcopal Church (AME) and the Christian Methodist Episcopal Church (CME) are two predominantly black Christian denominations within the Wesleyan / Methodist family of churches, both of which share similar theological beliefs as the rest. The primary difference between the two denominations is how they came to exist as separate Christian denominations.

The AME was originally a single congregation of black Methodists who originally attended services of the white-dominated St. George's Methodist Episcopal Church, Philadelphia, PA. This single congregation was known as Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church with Rev. Richard Allen as their pastor. It took lawsuits against St. George's Methodist Episcopal Church in order for them to gain recognition as a completely independent congregation with all the rights and previleges associated with self-governance, including the ability to choose their own ministers and bishops and ownership of church property. Several other black Methodists from the Mid-Atlantic states met with Rev. Richard Allen in Philadelphia and resolved in 1816 to establish the African Methodist Episcopal Church as the first black Christian denomination. The AME remained primarily a northern states church until after the end of the Civil War opened up the opportunity for rapid expansion throughout the former slave states of the South.

The CME was originally established as the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church in 1870. They were established in response to the rapid departure of southern black Methodists from the Methodist Episcopal Church, South (later known as United Methodist Church) in favor of the AME Church and the AME Zion Church (which also separated from the northern MEC and was officially established in 1821). The CME was established with the full support and assistance of the white-dominated Methodist Episcopal Church, South. Several difficulties experienced was associated with the appearance of being a subordinate church to the MEC, South although technically they were completely autonomous from each other. They were seen as an attempt by the white-dominated MEC, South to keep black Methodists from joining northern-based Methodist churches that many felt truly championed freedom for blacks. In recent years, there had been negotiations over the possible merger of CME Church with AME Zion Church; however, such a merger has not taken place. This denomination adopted Christian Methodist Episcopal Church as its official church name in 1954.

"Methodist" was a derogatory term that school mates used to describe John and Charles Wesley because of their habit of "methodically" following the same schedule every day.

A preacher, who used a "method" to study the Bible. He took his sermons to the people, preaching on the streets and even in mines to bring the word of God to everyone. He founded the Methodist Church. Protestants do not consider great preachers to be prophets, even if they founded a denomination.

Main Holidays include Easter, Christmas, and All Saints Day. Methodists also observe holy seasons such as; Advent, Christmastide, Lent, and Pentecost.

You are asking the wrong question. Anybody can become a catholic, but your need is be saved from sin! You are a religious person in need of the new birth. A change in religion is not going to give you the peace you are looking for. What you need is to meet God and come to a saving knowledge of the LORD Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ came to this earth and died for our sins on calvary and was buried and on the third day he raised again victorious over death hell and the grave.The gospel is in the fact that Jesus paid your redemption with his own blood, ACTS 20:28, and when you put your faith and trust in him to save you and cleanse you from your sin God will give you peace and acceptence into his family. Quit worrying about religious acceptance. Do you know God?

If you believe that John Wesley and his brother hold the key to eternal salvation, then you choose the Church that they founded in the eighteenth century: the Methodist Church. If you believe that the Son of God, Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ, holds the keys to salvation, then you choose the Church that He founded on St. Peter in the first century - the Catholic Church.

Methodist is a branch of the Protestant religion. That is a branch of Christianity.

One of the key organizers of the Methodist denomination was John Wesley. He, along with his brother Charles Wesley, played a pivotal role in founding the movement in the 18th century, emphasizing personal faith, social justice, and a methodical approach to spiritual growth. Their efforts helped shape Methodist theology and practices, leading to the establishment of the Methodist Church as a distinct denomination.

Charles Wesley was the younger brother of John Wesley, the founder of the Methodist movement of Protestantism, but was also a leader of the Methodist movement in his own right. Whilst studying at Christ Church College, Oxford, Wesley formed the "Oxford Methodist" group among his fellow students in 1729, a group which his brother later joined. However, Charles did not wish to break away from the Church of England into which he and his brother were both ordained.

Charles Wesley is best known for writing up to six thousand popular and well-loved hymns. His name is listed in the Gospel Music Hall of Fame for the enduring nature of his hymns.
