Has the 'One True Church' been identified?

Apparently the one true church is the true church of Philadelphia. Which Volbrigade is privileged to be a member of.

Yes. And Amen.

Among the 320,000 churches in the US, ONE of them has been identified as the "One True Church".

This Forum is fortunate enough to have a member of that church as a debating member. S/he can explain to readers why that church is 'true' and the other 319,999 are (apparently) 'not true'.

Perhaps there are some who disagree?

Sounds like the person you quoted is about to find a new debate friend:

[JehovahsWitness opined]

I believe this is refering to the true religion (Jehovah's Witnesses) and the hundreds of thousands of true Christian congregations of Jehovah's Witnesses around the world

Perhaps the two of them can sort this out for us. Or maybe luck would have it that they belong to the same church and the two of them can convince the rest of us.

I'll go grab the popcorn.

There is no verifiable 'truth' where religion is concerned, they are all human inventions, imo.

I have NO idea (though it may have been stated somewhere). It could be any of 40,000 sects OR some personal version of Christianity.

Not everyone is willing to (or required / expected to) identify their specific sub-brand of Christianity. There may be reasons to stay vague . . .

Z, by whom? Remember the RCC has made this claim for centuries, more recently the JWs. And you point out a few others.

Joseph Smith prayed and asked God a similar question, and got a visit from the angel Moroni for his troubles.

I doubt unless God Himself descends from the clouds we will ever get an answer to this question, except maybe in the afterlife.

Then, there are bound to be a lot of surprised faces in Heaven at the sight of all those "others" (the supposedly "lost") who have been admitted to the fellowship of their good and eternal company.

No specific church has ever been identified as the one true church. Of course that does not stop certain denominations from claiming to be the one true church, but of course nobody else takes them seriously.

The bible seems to suggest that all Christians should be in unity with one another. ie we are all one family. Even Jesus wanted it to be this way and expected it to happen so that the world could see it was all one big family and thus show the power of God.

It seems the Christian family is a very dysfunctional one and Jesus did not get what he prayed for. God and the holy spirit have been unable to bring all his followers together as one.
