I believe this from Colossians 2:11, 12 and other passages. Many do. You are right in the application of it as regards holy living as it can't contradict Romans 6.

You are making the point, I believe, that there were legitimate Christian churches apart from Rome long prior to the Reformation. This is obviously true.

Certainly - the Churches in the East. Not the Albigensians and not any heretical church over the previous 1500 years and not in the 500 years past.
