The Church is the Church composed of all those who have washed their robes in the Blood of Christ and are His redeemed children, not one particular denomination, no matter how highly it thinks of itself.

[Mrs. Don-o]

If the Church is "composed of all those who have washed their robes in the Blood of Christ and are His redeemed children,"--- and I'll not give you any hassle about that ---then when we are told to "listen to the church," to whom are we supposed to listen? If we are supposed to bring our disputed questions to the "church", can we take them to any church in the phone book?

If these churches disagree on doctrine and moral law, how can I be confident that any one of them can render true judgment on a disputed question?

I don't think you would, but do you you recommend the phone book approach?
