***He had a body of believers who were in a number of churches after Christ was resurrected.***
Name them.
Oh, really now. Name the body of believers? Aren’t you getting ridiculous? There were churches at Corinth for one. Thessalonica, and at least five the other churches named in the Bible. I’ll look them up for you if you can’t. The body of believers is the ONE TRUE CHURCH but no use in telling you that since you believe the heretical Roman church has that distinction. Wrong.
