That’s ridiculous. There was only one church back then with Christ as its head when He was alive.

And it wasn’t Roman Catholic by any stretch.

Your response is literally funny, in that ridiculus is from the latin meaning laughter.

It’s a joke a stole from a Baptist minister.

As to there being one Church, it depends what you mean by Church. I’ll happily contend that on the deepest level of meaning, there still is only one true Church because there is only one true Christ and the Church is His Body.

Ephesians 1:22-23 And he [God] put all things under his feet and gave him [Jesus] as head over all things to the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.

Ephesians 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior.

Colossians 1:18 He is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything.
