It would be great if protestants were willing to actually tell us what church they belong to so that they can’t hammer ‘personal attack’ everytime we challenge ‘personal’ beliefs.

Who's doing that? Links to complaints, if you can.

I belong to the body of Christ, the Bride of Christ, of whom I am a member by being born again through faith in Jesus.

Catholics are singularly incapable of wrapping their minds around the concept that THE church, the body of Christ, is NOT a denomination or building. That is an organism, not an organization.

FWIW, I don't belong to a "church", I belong to Jesus. I am willing to attend any local assembly of believers whose statement of faith attests to salvation by grace through faith in Jesus, not of works.

I could even attend a Catholic church, if they started teaching what the scripture teaches...

‘FWIW, I don’t belong to a “church”,’

Quel surprise.
