The "True" Church

Here is wisdom;

There is only one true church. It is the church that Jesus leads.

How will I know which church is real?

They will teach what Jesus taught and will follow the ten commandments.

Revelation warns us of the seven churches. Many of them are rebuked by Christ.

Revelation is not our only source for these churches.

"And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, "We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach" (Isaiah 4:1).

This is prophecy. In prophecy "women" represent the church (Jeremiah 6:2), "one man" represents Christ, "bread" represents the word (John 6:35), and "clothing" represents character (Isaiah 64:6).

What this is saying is that there are several churches but to stay away from the ones that make their own rules or word and character even though they claim to represent Christ.

What if I'm wrong?

Follow Jesus and the ten commandments and you have nothing to fear.

Jesus said, "...other sheep that I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear My voice; and there shall be one fold and one shepherd." (John 10:16)

...just study and follow God's word. Do what it says and you will always be in the fold.
