o.k. so what is your idea of a true church??
A local assembly that teaches only what the Word teaches ( OT and NT ) .
That salvation (being born again) is totally based upon the faith of Jesus, not upon what a man does or does not do.
That baptism is the first act of obedience of a person that is saved, and is not a part of salvation.
That once a person is saved (born again) he will never lose that salvation.
That a person that is truly born again will produce some good works as evidence of his salvation.
Even thought the flesh continues to sin, a person that is truly born again will not continue to live in sin, but will confess his sin to the Father and ask forgiveness.
A true church will teach that it is always about Jesus and glorifying Him, and not about me or you.
This is what I would look for first when looking for a true church,
