RON
The only Church to remain consistent from its inception is the
Catholic Church. The Orthodox don't disagree on any doctrines decided in
council so they have not deviated doctrinally. The Copts have devited in
their doctrine of the nature of Christ. The same is true of the
Reformation churches as well. The Catholic Church is THE Church
established by Christ. He is not a God of confusion. The truth does not
change with "culture". There is only ONE true Church. All baptized
Christians are members of this body whether they realize it or not.
