<<<The true Church of Christ (Father Son and Holy Ghost) will not occur until we are with him.>>>

Your doctrine is flawed. If we don't have him in this life than we will also not have him in the life to come. Consider the following scripture:

For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named. Ephesians 3:14-15.

Chris

Dear Dan,
IMO we will not have unity until we learn to respect and love the way God has made people different. If He did not want a race He would not have made it. However, He chose to make us the way we are and it is up to us to love one another as we love ourselves. I have said before that there are still male and female and there is still Jew and Greek in this world so the text must have a meaning of being eligiable for salvation and in that case this is totally true. The physical world still has Nations and His plan is proceeding regardless of what men want.
I long for the day that He sets up His Son on His Holy mountain Zion.
Psalm 2
1: Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
2: The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
3: Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
4: He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.
5: Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.
6: Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.
7: I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.
This time is yet to come, IMO we are now indwelled individually amongst the tears.

Hi Alan,

If we can reach no unity of spirit, then IMO it is to our shame not from God. The scriptures clearly say that we are ONE in Christ, and when we choose to go outside that then we are the problem not God. Not to say we are not different peoples , as we certainly are, but in Christ we are to be one.

It is my belief that the true Church is very much on earth and Christ is the Head. The following are scriptures that I base my belief on.

Matt. 21:42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?

(Col 1:18 KJV) And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

(Eph 1:22 KJV) And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church,

(1 Pet 5:13 KJV) The church that is at Babylon, elected together with you, saluteth you; and so doth Marcus my son.

(Heb 12:23 KJV) To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,

(James 5:14 KJV) Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:

The saints called by God and saved by the blood of the Lamb are the church of Christ. I could say no less with the evidence I have seen.

God bless
