**...Would be an impossiblility for an unsaved person to be a member of the church Jesus founded...**
Absolutely, yes, who was the first person into paradise after Christ? The good thief who was a sinner, but repented right there on the cross with Jesus.
Hate the sin, love the sinner. Christ died for our sins -- one of the reasons we seek support in scripture, liturgy and fellowship such as catechesis (You call it Sunday School for adults.)

Now we're gettin' somewhere...That's why the Catholic church, nor the Methodist church are the churches Christ founded...There are un-saved folks in those churches...
The saved people from those churches are the church Jesus founded...
Sinners are added to HIS church as they are saved...
The question now is:
Act 16:30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
And the answer:
Act 16:31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
