For sake of discussion, i will concede you have the ONE true church, not the Catholics.
Actually, you are correct in your assumption, I do belong to the only ONE true church as it is described in the New Testament. The One true church is made up of those Born-Again, whose sins have been forgiven, and whose hearts have been changed, old things have passed away and all things have become new by the Blood of Jesus Christ.
This church is not made up of the members of any church organization here on earth, it is made up of those who Love the Lord our God with their whole hearts, their whole mindes, with everything they are, not of anything they have done to accomplish this Love of God, but what God has done in their hearts when He saved them.
The members of the ONE true church are also members of the earthly churches of Catholics, Methodists, Baptists, Lutherens, even some Mormons who don't know their own doctrine.

Elendur,
To further clarify who belongs to the ONE true church, it is those, and only those who are Born-Again and their church affiliation does not matter at all to Christ.
In fact, Christ said there would be many who had done many good works, who had healed the sick in his name and worked miracles and called him Lord, Lord who would ultimately end up in the fires of Hell.
Only those who have the Love of God in their hearts, who have been born-again will make Heaven.

Perhaps we can make this religion forum a place where one can share, disagree and even agree to disagree and bless each other. Thank you
