Acts 1:20 For it is written in the book of Psalms: ‘Let his habitation be desolate and let no man dwell therein’; and ‘His bishopric let another take.’

Your words from post # 273 (above)
The Catholic church was originally just the universal church. It could just as well be said that where Christ is there is the only church, which is all real believers.
The foundation of the church is the confession that Jesus is God's Son. All true believers...

Real believers?
Jesus built on Rock this means; what Jesus built 2000 years ago still stands today!

Muffled the Holy Church is the "Bride of Jesus"! It takes two to form a baby!
You cannot claim God is your father if you do not have a mother!
The "Bride" re-Forms Adams children into the Children of God by the waters of Baptism! My Mother the Holy Catholic Church formed me, and God the Groom...

Wildswanderer Hello....

Wildswanderer you asked, "What Church did Jesus established!?"
Fact from the bible: Jesus established "One (1) Church"!

I reply... Jesus established a Church and his Church decided what was truly Inspired words of God and what were not! Then his Holy Church put all the inspired works into one book she named "The Bible"! The Church came long before there was a bible...
