1 | True church of God | John 14:6 | faith531 | 53681 | ||
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father; but by me. I believe that there is only one way, truth and life which is by Christ Jesus. Can anyone tell me how all these different churches came along. If there is one way, truth and the life; which church is the true church? |

2 | True church of God | John 14:6 | Hank | 53696 | ||
Faith 531 -- The 'true church' is not identified by a shingle on the outside of a building. A label or a name on the church door does not necessarily mean that all, or indeed any, of the members congregated inside are regenerate believers and thus members of Christ's body, the church, the 'true' church, if you will. It is only through regeneration that anyone ever becomes a member of, or is added to, the church, the true church, the body of Christ. Church membership as we commonly understand it, that is, the act of going through the motions to meet the requirements of a particular denomination, does not per se constitute addition to the Lord's body, the true church. Only regeneration does that. So we have essentially two types of membership. One is "physical" membership in a certain denominational group. The other "spiritual" membership in Christ's church. The latter is the true church. --Hank | ||||||
