What is the true church of Jesus Christ?
536444
As a Christian, I have to say the Christian Church.  The denomination doesn't really matter.  The differences are not of the essentials of the Christian faith level.  They are minor differences so Baptists, Presbytarians, Lutherans, Pentacostals, etc. are all part of the true Church of Jesus Christ.  I might add that Mormons, though they like to claim to be Christians, are not Christians.

Jesus says in His word that there is just want church.  And is the one who seek His is spirit and truth.  Even there's a lot of denomitation, for God there's no denominations, only the ones who really seek Him and His word, and follow His word are part of the church would Jesus join if he returned to earth in our days.

There is only One Church of which Jesus The Christ is The Head. And it has no earthly building... The Church is The Body of beleivers who make up The Church. Where two or more of The Body are that is where The Church is.

Jesus Christ is the only and true way to God. Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation for us humans and the only way to have a relationship with God. Christianity is not a religion but a relationship. All of the other religions you are trying to work your way to God and doing all sorts of meaningless things to please their gods. However, salvation from Jesus Christ is a free gift since He died on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins. All we have to do is ask Him into our lives, make Him Lord and Savior of our lives and we are saved.

True Christians are to seek truth, not unite over some untruth.  True Christians are united over the essentials. Some things do not matter, like the mode of baptism. Other secondary issues do matter, so people should seek out the truth and not just take someones word for it.

Jehovah's Witnesses are the only true Christians. True Christianity as practiced in the first century and by Jehovah's Witnesses rejects all paganisms.\n\n1. True Christianity draws its teachings exclusively from the bible, rather than from philosophy. Doctrines such as Trinity, hellfire, and immortality are not found in the bible.\n(Mark 7:7) It is in vain that they keep worshiping me, because they teach as doctrines commands of men.\n\n2. True Christianity works to make known God's personal name. No group has done more to advocate that name than Jehovah's Witnesses .\n(John 17:6) I have made your name manifest to the men you gave me out of the world.\n\n3. True Christianity recognizes the active role of Christ as heavenly King NOW, not just as a storybook character in a manger or dying helplessly. Witnesses look to Jesus as their Head and King who is ruling in heaven already.\n(John 3:36) He that exercises faith in the Son has everlasting life; he that disobeys the Son will not see life\n\n4. True Christianity is not just formalism, but is a way of life for its adherents. Jehovah's Witnesses have a real reputation for honesty, integrity, and faith. Their worship shuns pageantry and sacerdotalisms.\n(Isaiah 1:15-17) Even though YOU make many prayers, I am not listening... Learn to do good; search for justice\n\n5. True Christianity is known by its members love for one another. Witnesses do not go to war, and do not take up arms against anyone much less members of their own religion.\n(John 13:35) By this all will know that YOU are my disciples, if YOU have love among yourselves.\n\n6. True Christianity is separate from the world. Unlike the clergy of Christendom, Jehovah's Witnesses remain neutral to human politics and nationalism, looking instead to God's Kingdom through Christ Jesus as the only solution for all mankind's problems.\n(John 15:19) Now because you are no part of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, on this account the world hates you\n\n7. True Christians follow Jesus' command to preach. No religion has more prominently emphasized preaching by all its adherents around the globe.\n(Matthew 24:14) And this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations

Jesus said His Church would be “the light of the world.” He then noted that “a city set on a hill cannot be hid” (Mt 5:14). This means his Church is a visible organization. It must have characteristics that clearly identify it and that distinguish it from other churches. Jesus promised, “I will build my Church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it” (Mt 16:18). This means that His Church will never be destroyed and will never fall away from Him. His Church will survive until His return.\n\nAmong the Christian churches, only the Catholic Church has existed since the time of Jesus. Every other Christian church is an offshoot of the Catholic Church. The Eastern Orthodox churches broke away from unity with the pope in 1054. The Protestant churches were established during the Reformation, which began in 1517. (Most of todays Protestant churches are actually offshoots of the original Protestant offshoots.) \n\nOnly the Catholic Church existed in the 10th century, in the 5th century, and in the 1st century, faithfully teaching the doctrines given by Christ to the apostles, omitting nothing. The line of popes can be traced back, in unbroken succession, to Peter himself. This is unequaled by any institution in history. \n\nEven the oldest government is new compared to the papacy, and the churches that send out door-to-door missionaries are young compared to the Catholic Church. Many of these churches began as recently as the 19th or 20th centuries; some even began during your own lifetime. None of them can claim to be the Church Jesus established. \n\nThe Catholic Church has existed for nearly 2000 years, despite constant opposition from the world. This is testimony to the Churchs divine origin. It must be more than a merely human organization, especially considering that its human members - even some of its leaders - have been unwise, corrupt, or prone to heresy. \n\nAny merely human organization with such members would have collapsed early on. The Catholic Church is today the most vigorous church in the world (and the largest, with over a billion members - one sixth of the human race), and that is testimony not to the cleverness of the Church’s leaders, but to the protection of the Holy Spirit.

The true God is a spirit.  He is love and his words are truth. He is all knowing, all powerful and all present. He is the God whom the Hebrew patriarchs, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob served.  He was displeased with the wickedness of his people, Israel and with the sins of mankind, as His creation.  Therefore, he sent Jesus Christ into the world (this is the other form He took) in order to experience our pain and to atone for sin and thereby, make mankind (Christian believers) worthy of eternal life in God's kingdom. When man rejected Jesus Christ, and sent Him back out of the world, God sent the Holy Spirit to live inside ALL people who love Him, believe in Him and obey Him.

Real.\n\nScripture:  Jesus said, "I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you" (John 6:53).\n\nTradition:  "In the most blessed sacrament of the Eucharist the body and blood, together with the soul and divinity, of our Lord Jesus Christ and, therefore, the whole Christ is truly, really, and substantially contained" - the Catechism of the Catholic Church\n\nReason - It's certainly what St. Paul and the Early Church believed:  "For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body."  Saint Paul - 1 Corinthians 11:29\n\nBesides all of that - Jesus was pretty clear when he said:\n\n"Hoc est enim corpus meum"\n\n"THIS IS MY BODY"

Any church can be considered a cult.  It's a very subjective term.

I say any verse in the bible is the word of God and is the truth. Jesus is the truth so the word is the truth.

I would love to answer your question directly but I do not know how. Which church of Christ? Here in the Philippines there are many divisions of the Church of Christ with only a single word modified tfro registration with the government..\n\nAlso I find the church of Christ on the web search with over 44,000,000 postings. Do you mean the church of Christ in the Bible? Let me assume that OK just to answer.\n\nIn my opinion the Head of the Church of Christ in the Bible said with His own words the trinity is incorrect. The very builder who said "upon this rock, I will build My Church" also said "I go to My God and Your God, to My Father and Your Father". To me in my opinion I am convinced that the trinity is a lie because I do believe the church head who did say he would build his own church.\n\nI hope I did answer your question. If not just smile and let another give you a better answer. Remember I said it was just my opinion and you may \nhave yours.\n\nFrom a "NO" do have a great day OK

Salvation and church are almost mutually exclusive.  Good, church going folk are almost never true Christians.

you know the same God? right. so much so that you have typed it G-d...right. as for whether you really are saved or good with God, no one can be the judge of that, except God Himself. however, the only TRUE RELIGION is christianity. end of story. it's the religion behind believing what you need and having the right relationship with Jesus/God. so there ya are. the truth.

The answer to your question is actually pretty involved, and would take semesters of study to truly understand.  I'm not an expert, but I can try to sum it up briefly.\n\nBasically, what all these churches differ about is who has the authority to act in the name of Jesus Christ and what the true teachings of Jesus Christ are.\n\nJesus Christ is the son of God and He came to be a sacrifice for the sins of the world, and to teach people the way to return to our Father in Heaven.  When Jesus Christ organized His church approximately 2000 years ago, He called 12 apostles, who were responsible for the workings of the church.  When Jesus Christ was resurrected and ascended into heaven, Peter, the head apostle, became the earthly head of the church of Jesus Christ.  Shortly after that time, however, the members of the church were persecuted and many were forced into hiding.  Also, geographical differences between the congregations of the church meant that many followers of Christ started teaching doctrines that were not correct.  While the early apostles tried to correct the incorrect teachings that were taking place, the early church basically fragmented and went into a period of darkness because the true teachings of Jesus Christ were not being taught in their fulness.  Part of what Jesus Christ gave to his true followers was a power called "priesthood", which basically means the authority to administer sacred ceremonies with the permission of Jesus Christ.  As the church of Jesus Christ fragmented and incorrect teachings were established, the priesthood was not properly passed along in the church.  So, relatively soon after the ascension of Jesus Christ, there were many sects, each of which taught some true doctrines of Jesus Christ, but none of which had the complete doctrine, nor the authority from Jesus Christ necessary to administer His church.\n\nDuring this period of darkness, for quite a long time, the Catholic church was the main church over the Roman empire and, later, Europe.  After Constantine took over, there was a split between the Catholic church and the Orthodox churches.  Reformers such as Martin Luther and John Calvin recognized that the teachings of the Catholic church were not completely in keeping with the true doctrine of Jesus Christ that they had learned from the Bible, and so they tried to form new churches that were closer to the things they read about in the Bible.  That was the beginning of Protestant churches.  Of the ones that you've listed, the Protestant churches are: Episcopalian/Anglican, Lutheran, Methodist, Presbyterian, Seventh-Day Adventist, Amish, and Jehovah's Witnesses.  None of these churches, though, had the authority or direction of people with priesthood authority from Jesus Christ.  And these branches of churches have continued to split to today.\n\nThe good news is that that is not the end of the story.  The world is no longer in darkness and no longer lacking the authority from Jesus Christ.  In the year 1820, God the Father and Jesus Christ personally appeared to Joseph Smith, a young farm boy who lived in New York State.  As a result of this experience and other experiences,  Joseph Smith became a prophet of God, and he was called to reorganize the Church of Jesus Christ.  He received the authority to administer the Church of Jesus Christ directly from John the Baptist and Peter, James, and John, people who had the authority in Jesus Christ's day.  The church organized by Joseph Smith is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and members of this church are sometimes known as Mormons.  The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is completely separate from other Christian sects because it is a restoration of the original church of Jesus Christ, not a reaction to any other church.  (We use the term latter-day simply because we are talking about the church of Jesus Christ that has been organized in this time period, the last days, but it is the s

Christianity started in the Middle East in Israel, where there are still Christians to this day. It is the world's largest religion and can be found all over the world. As you know from the terrorist movement among some Islamic extremists, the name of any religion can be abused by evil men. A TRUE Christian is someone who has the love of Jesus Christ in his heart. This comes from a conscience that is at peace with God. This peace can only be procured by faith that Jesus Christ took upon Himself the punishment of your sins by dying on the cross. If you confess to God that you are a sinner who can't save yourself by your own inadequate efforts to meet His perfect standards, but instead you humbly accept what His Son Jesus did as payment for your sins, you will be saved.
