Catholicism is not a denomination, it is Christianity in it's purest form.

A claim many FReepers have heard previously many times.

Still is not provable. Still is untrue. Just a claim of superiority by members of ONE of many religious groups that incorporate their own version of Jesus of Nazareth somehow into their own belief systems and traditional practices.

The RCC is not the only cult to make the OTC claim now or in the past.

And as you know, there are those FReepers who cling to, believe in, and walk in the Spirit in Lord Jesus Christ and Him alone and are the called-out of this world that Jesus called His Church. No other Name whereby men can be saved. No organizational name either.

my edit in bold:
And as you know, there are those FReepers who claim to, purport to, aspire to, or intend to cling to, believe in, and walk in the Spirit in Lord Jesus Christ and Him alone and are the called-out of this world that Jesus called His Church. No other Name whereby men can be saved. No organizational either.

Your standard: Still is not provable. Still is untrue

of course...to each his own....I however, read the part where Jesus established a church (upon this Rock I will build my CHURCH) and I fugure that as long as He and the Apostles established and died for, and during the establishment of that church, I ought to at least belong to it. Can you imagine Christ, the Apostles and the Evangalists sitting around a table....looking over the scriptures and Gospels and deciding...lets everyone go our own way and let all the people decide on their own what the road to salvation is. Who needs a system, who needs organization?? Peter, you teach what you want....Paul interpret things the way you see fit and James and John, well you guys just go and do your own thing....

Perhaps it didn't happen that way.....fortunately!
