Why would it “appear that the Catholic Church is the true church”? ;-)

JAK


It appears to have the largest membership numbers. Do you think it's also the richest in assets?

Globally, the Roman Catholic Church has the largest assets.

That's because it's the true church.

JAK,

Let me explain this more fully. In order to ascertain which church is the true church, one must consider three aspects:

1. The number of members (truth by membership)
2. The amount of wealth (truth by assets)
3. Which church claims to be true (truth by assertion)

See how that works?

What happened to many are called, few are chosen?

Surely the causal link is to the fewest. It’s in the Bible!!!

Let me check that link again and figure out which is the most Biblical.

Don’t all claim to be true?

I don’t recall any church group announcing that it is
not true. Which group does that?

Sadly, the link you supplied offers a listing of the top 10 Largest churches in the US. Biblically, because they are the largest churches, it only follows that they are also the top ten false churches.

I suppose I could access the SBC to find out which group is false, but then how would I believe them?

How do you plan to measure that? Which is the most biblical. Humm

Relatively speaking, which points count more than other points?

See :-) This is going to become difficult.
