Not many religions or church call them selves just Christians either they are presbyterian Baptist Methodist or what have you...
I don't see many Christian church of.... Or .... Christian church.
Christian is a generalization for someone that follows Christ.
Christinity is a religion, same as Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Zoarastriaism, etc.
Presbyterian, Baptists, Catholics, etc. are denominations within the religion of Christianity. They are subsets. A Presbyterian still calls himself a Christian. A Catholic still calls herself a Christian.
It is the same with Shi'ite and Sunni Muslims and Orthodox and Reformist Jews. They are subsets within their religions and not separate religions because they still adhere to the core beliefs of the religion they are a subset of.
Belief in the Holy Trinity is a core belief in Christianity. JW's do not believe in the trinity. Therefore, they are not a denomination of Christianity. They are a separate entity.
