>How does God affect anything or anyone? Grace. Moved by His grace, the pope and bishops teach the truth, protect it from error and help us understand revelation.<
After all this you see the light.The Holy Spirit guides people not Churches.A church is only guided by the Holy Spirit as it reflects the Holy Spirit inspired Grace of the Christians in the body.

Christ's bride, the Church, is not seperate from the people. They are one in the same. You are attempting to perpetuate a false dichotomy.

The Church is administered to by people, that's the way He set it up. There is one Church ordained by God and it is that Church which by His influence on those chosen to lead is free of error in regards to the faith. That is the light because it is of God.
