What a bunch of baloney. While He did pray that we'd be one, that verse doesn't even come close to saying that.

John 17:20-21 20 “I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, 21 that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me.

He never said a word about “One Holy and Apostolic Catholic Church”. The purpose of His prayer for us to be one was so that the world would believe that God sent Jesus. That's the reason He gave Himself.

John 17:21
King James Version (KJV)
21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.

Not a man, not Rome......Me Him God Us

That's deception. Learn the **warning of adding or changing God's Word which catholicism, mormonism, islamism is know for. These counterfeits high jack God's Word to produce deception/man-made teachings.

That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art 'in Me', and 'I in thee', that they also may be 'ONE IN US': that the world may believe that thou hast sent Me.

To be 'in-Christ', to be filled w/His Spirit.

**For I testify unto every man that heareth the Words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. (Revelation 22:18-19)

God clearly directed 'every Word' and will not tolerate man's meddling with it. They are 'His Words.'
