Question: There are so many denominations, how does one recognize the Church Jesus founded? Answer: Jesus Christ did not found many different churches - each teaching a different "gospel," each practicing different doctrines. It may be hard to believe, but it's TRUE! Christ said, "I will build My CHURCH." And He did build it! ONE CHURCH - commissioned to preach and to publish His Gospel - to carry God's GOOD NEWS to all the world. But what do we find today? Hundreds of different and disagreeing churches, every one founded by MEN, each professing to teach the truth, yet contradicting and disagreeing with all the others - a modern religious Babylon! Most people today suppose that the true Church was rapidly to grow BIG, to become a powerful influence on the world, making this a better world, becoming a "stabilizing influence" on this world's tempestuous international politics. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
