The Church will ALWAYS be what she once was because she cannot be anything else. People are changed, but the Church, as the body of Christ changes not.

No church ever has been nor ever will be the Body of Christ...The Body of Christ is 'people', proven time and again by Scripture...

Yes, the Church is the body of Christ. Ephesians 1:22-23 says so. Now you may disagree as to whether or not that Church is the Catholic Church, but clearly, ACCORDING TO THE HOLY SPIRIT AND SAINT PAUL, the church is the body of Christ.

It amazes me how often anti-Catholics insist the Bible denies something it affirms.
