The church as we all know is a religious gathering of people of different backgrounds.

The early church during the time of Peter and Paul was far more better than the modern church. Christianity was born in Israel. The main activities of the early church was to spread Christianity all over the world. Other activities involved charity etc.

Their leaders were mainly Peter and Paul. Others were known as the seven deacons appointed by Peter.

The similarities between the early church and the modern church is they both spread Christianity worldwide and they involved in acts of charity and also performed miracles.

The differences between them is that the modern church isn't one,there is criticism among modern churches which was not so in the early church.

The problems of the early church was mostly on the issue of circumcision of the Gentiles and also the law passed on not eating strangled animals.

The history of the Christian religion and the Christian church began with Jesus and his apostles. Christianity is the religion that is based on the birth, life, death, resurrection and teaching of Jesus Christ.Early Christians were known to meet in Jerusalem where Christianity had its origins. Early apostles, teachers, and preachers of Christianity were actively travelling and spreading the word, or the "Great Commission", wherein after his resurrection Jesus instructed his followers to baptize all nations and gain new disciples.The early church experienced the split of Christianity and Judaism and the moving of church centers to locations such as Constantinople/Byzantium, Anatolia, Rome, Antioch, and Alexandria. Jerusalem remains to be seen as "holy land". The modern church has experienced some changes such as the split of England and the creation of the Church of England, the importance of the Pope, the emergence of religious titles such as bishop, priest, and cardinal, the importance of denominations and the waxing importance of political and governmental influence.Christianity spread orally through preaching from Jerusalem, through the Roman Empire, around the Mediterranean Sea, Greece, Africa, and Asia through practices such as baptism, keeping the Sabbath holy, communal meals, receiving Holy Communion (bread and wine, representing the memory of the body and blood of Christ). Early leaders of Christianity include Paul the Apostle, Saint Peter, and James- brother of Jesus. Many Christians faced problems such as religious persecution after complaints from neighboring pagans who were concerned with displeasing their gods.
