Again, you just said that "the church" was not Christ. And I just pointed to a few items that were not present or part of the original founding.

Your assertions are merely that. Assertions. They may be pleasing to many, but do not stand up all that well under critical scrutiny.

All my heresies shall perish? Of what heresies am I guilty of? (don't confuse myself with others --- show your work).

Here, let me help in this work or "inquiry" as it may be...is it;
Not agreeing with singular papacy? (or that there be be "papacy" at all). Not agreeing with Monfort, whom the Latin church ecclesiastical community has declared to be a "saint"? Perhaps the Lord accepts Montfort, that would be ok with me -- but I don't need accept Montfort's teachings.

I'm acquainted with the Lord. For reasons beyond my own understanding, it pleased himself to draw me towards Himself, and He has shown me personally and most directly that He will do so more completely, ultimately, beyond that which I have proper words to describe...

You say;

but seem confused as to gates not prevailing (and what that means) even as mistaking the Roman Catholicism as being the ekklesia spoken of.

Do you really think the spirit of the Lord not be able to speak, beyond the limited understanding of yourself and others -- even those within [Roman] Catholic church ecclesiastical community?

It does seem to me that He has spoken often enough there (to various individuals) --- but there are other influences too, which are mistaken as being Him, drowning out even His own voice within that community at times, adding things not of Him, at others.

Then again, that condition is much the default condition outside of the narrower confines of the RCC, too. So -- it's not just "you guys" who can get a bit fouled up. If that's an consolation...

You are asking me to sort out your opinions for you. No time. If you have a specific question about the teachings of the Church, ask.
