Yes, the Salvation Army is very spiritual. In fact, the entire basis of the Salvation Army and all of it's employees in based on the bible and Christianity itself. If you did't know, the Salvation Army is a church that hold services all around the world, just as the Baptist and Methodist just down your street. The Salvation Army also runs thrift stores, kettles, homeless shelters, rehab centers, etc., to better the community of its surrounding in a Christian way.
Yes. The CEO is General Brian Peddle and he is part of The Salvation Army.
There are many. for one thing ( or seven) the Saklvation Army despite its laudable works in the charity field- totally repudiates the whole idea of Sacraments. in contrast the Catholic Church observes seven- Baptism, Penance, Communion ( or Eucharist), Confirmation, Holy Orders, Extreme Unction ( last rites of the dead and dying) and Matrimony. the SA do not have sacraments. they do have paralell rites for weddings and dedications ( probably called a call to arms) but never use the term Sacrament. there are SA pamphlets and tracts on this. They argue in part the word itself does not appear in the King James Version of the Bible- and even Luther could only trace Baptism ( man must be born again of Water!) and Communion-called the Lord"s Supper, (do not confuse with Last Supper) directly to the Bible.
No. The only time the Salvation Army salute is seriously offered today is when a new commissioned lieutenant receives his first appointment {job} from his territorial leader as part of the commissioning {ordination} celebration.
The Salvation Army, an international movement, is an evangelical part of the universal Christian Church. Its message is based on the Bible. Its ministry is motivated by the love of God. Its mission is to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to meet human needs in His name without discrimination.
No.AnswerIf you mean 'catholic' with a small 'c', then yes. the word 'catholic' simply means 'universal' and so the Protestant Church is part of the universal Christian Church worldwide. If you mean 'Catholic' with a large 'C' - this usually refers to the Roman Catholic Church and, though the Protestant Church is part of the catholic (universal) church, it is not part of the Catholic (Roman Cattholic) church as this is a separate denomination.
There is no "Roman" Catholic Church: Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is rarely used by the Catholic Church. The Chaldean Catholic Church is part of the Catholic Church.

The Melkite Greek Catholic Church is an Eastern Catholic Church in full communion with the Holy See as part of the worldwide Catholic Church.
The Catholic Church, which was founded by Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ, teaches that the way to heaven is to do the Will of God. It teaches that the clearest way to do this is through the Catholic Church, which teaches with His voice: "Go therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you: and lo, I am with you always, to the close of the age." St. Matthew 28:19-20. The Church teaches that to the extent that they are consistent with the Church, non-Catholic Churches teach part of the truth, and for those who do not realize that the Catholic Church is necessary for salvation, may be a means of doing God's Will, but only in a partial and crippled manner. The full means of salvation ("way to heaven") subsists in the Catholic Church, this is infallible teaching.
The correct name of the popularly called Catholic Church is The Holy Roman Church. The word "Catholic" is not a part of its official name.
the Armenian Apostholic church never splitted from the Catholic Church. there was a major separation of churches back in 451 AD (see: Council of Chalcidon), and the Armenian church is from one part of that separation, whereas the catholic - from another part.
