I planned out in my mind a response to all of this, because I know both sides well, but then I got too lazy and now I'm not going to write it. Plus, there are others on this thread that are doing a good job of arguing my perspective, so I feel less inclined to keep defending it. I was born Protestant and lived in a pretty religious Baptist home for 18ish years. Now I am a Roman Catholic, and I feel so much closer to God now than I ever did growing up. Unlike some Catholics, I still believe that whoever truly believes in Christ and lives his/her life accordingly will most likely go to heaven. Of course, I'm a little biased and think that the Church is the best way to get there, but I am fairly certain that it is not impossible outside of the Church. Ok, that's enough of this.

For me it not so much what denomination, TO A DEGREE. But if you have truly givin your life to the Lord.
Some denomination are to far outside doctrine bibilical truths to preach the Word, but they keep tring.
The true church is that elect group, who have found the Lord. And we (the church) be spread out among the tares, until that faithful day. Matt 13:24-30
