Hmmm, Let's give Christian churches the test...
"*It was founded by Jesus Christ Himself in Mt 16:18."
Check!
"*It would be built on Simon Peter a profession of faith that Christ is Messiah, Mt 16:18."
Check! Since Christ didn't build the gathering on Peter we must strike it out and correct it.
"*It would be defended by GOD Himself, Mt 16:18-19."
Check!
"*It would have authority given by Jesus Christ, Mt 16:19,18:17-18."
Check!
"*It would be guided by the Holy Spirit who will dwell within it, Jn 14:15-17, Act 15:28,16:6."
Check!
"*It would be one and undivided, Mk 3:24-25."
Check!
"*It would have one fold and one shepherd, Jn 10:16."
Check!
"*It would have Priests, Bishops, and Deacons, 1Tim 3:1-13."
Check! Must strike out "priests", since this is an unbiblical Church office.
"*It must have the Holy Eucharist Lord's Supper celebration in memory of Him, Jn 6:42-70, Acts 2:42."
Check!
"*It must be found in all nations, Mt 28:19."
Big Check!
"*It must be found in all centuries, Mt 28:20."
Check!
"*Jesus Christ said He would be with His Church every day, in every year, until the end of the world, Mt 28:20. (This means no gaps in time.) "
Check!
OK, I gave it a shot Salvation. Unfortunately, you tried so slip some voodoo in there. I cleared it out.
The New Testament contains five different metaphors for the foundation of the Church (Matt. 16:18, 1 Cor. 3:11, Eph. 2:20, 1 Pet. 2:5–6, Rev. 21:14). One metaphor that has been disputed is Jesus Christ’s calling the apostle Peter "rock": "You are Peter, and on this rock I will build my Church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it" (Matt. 16:18).
Hmmm, Let's give Christian churches the test...
Why the shift from "a" church to church"es"?
Are all churches that profess to be Christian, really Christian?
Or is there just one church that is? If so, which one?
