Jesus Christ founded One Church.

That Church is in another dimension, another sphere, of which other participants here are aware and have tried to show you.

The human whose spirit is reborn through the planted Seed of the Word is baptized by the instrumentality of the Spirit of God into one body, into the festal assembly and church of the Firstborn, the host of angels and of redeemed humans whose names are written in heaven (Heb. 12:22-24); and made to drink into one Spirit (1 Cor. 12:13).

Jesus said, "My Kingdom is not of this world!" (Jn. 18:36).

The visible gospel assemblies on earth are but way-stations, vestibules of intake and screening for that great invisible Assembly already gathered and always in session in Heaven. Indeed, one becames a part of that heavenly Kingdom of God which is invisuble to the human eye, but very tangible to spiritual discernment.

The visble churches on earth are melanges of pure and impure humans, some of whom are possessors of eternal life, and others who are only professors of that gift, but who will be sorted out by the Lord on His return.

But in my estimation, it is the one denomination that claims itself and only itself to be "The One True Church," is not; and is so soiled, no matter what the earthly garments it wears, can never be.

It is the resort to which those who will not give themselves over to Jesus alone, through faith in His shed Blood alone, in faith alone, will find a fleeting home there,and occupation in its religious appurtenances abd rituals, which is but a portal to a fiery death.

And despite its claim, it is one not founded by Jesus The Christ, but rather by the god of this world, and staffed by his blinded children (2 Cor. 4:3-4).
