***The Holy Spirit indwells saved Christians, not churches... ***
Saved Christians ARE the Church. Read the Acts of the Apostles for a description of how all those who were saved were called "the Church." Here are a few verses:
"And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved." Acts 2:47b
"And so were the churches established in the faith, and increased in number daily." Acts 16:5
"Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood." Acts 20:28
I'm well aware of the verses...
You admit then that there are no 'unsaved' in the church...At the same time there can not be any that do not know if they are saved, since only the saved already are members of the church...
If you must endure to the end, you are not saved til the end and you won't know til the end if you are really saved...In which case, that person can't be a member of the body, the church...
Eschatologically, yeah, but not right now. Right now we have this wheat tares thing going on, and as far as we know the Church is not identical with the community of the saved -- not yet.
That's what I thought anyway. Am I wrong?
