However, only the mystical body of Christ is the one true church, since it alone always and only consists 100% of true believers, whereas the visible orgs that they may I.D. with invariably become admixtures of true and false believers and teachings. The problem with the wheat and the tares is that everybody thinks *their* denomination is the wheat and everyone else is the tares. *cough*.
"Therefore, judge nothing before the time...then every man shall have his praise from God." and all that.

Where did I defend denominations as being the wheat? And who but Catholics and cultist here defend their denomination as uniquely being the wheat? As said, only the mystical body of Christ is the one true church, since it alone always and only consists 100% of true believers.

No they don't...Christian denominations know their church buildings are filled with wheat AND tares...But we know it is only the wheat that are the Body of Christ...Difference is: Catholics think that every Catholic whether wheat or tare is a member of the Body of Christ, since the Catholic church is the body of Christ...
