Boy! You really like to slice and dice what everyone is saying to meet your preconceived notions. Let's start at the beginning.
Are you really asking or do you have some very-special teaching you need to impart on us dumb schmoes?
(Hint: You can answer either way, but I won't be bothering with this thread anymore, if you answer a certain way.)

One Shepherd / one fold:
John 10:
11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
16 And other sheep 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.

The Bible is plain concerning the truth,and if they do not display that truth,then they are wrong,but of course the Bible says,thou shalt not steal,but some will say that only means on Saturday,so it does not matter if you are in the truth,and understand every subject of the Bible,to somebody you are not in the truth,and they may even say you are of the devil because you believe you should not eat pork,for we can be nit picky like that,and do they have to be that bad for some little error.
Claim Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior,receive the Spirit,study the word,love works no ill towards their neighbor,therefore love is the fulfilling of the law,and abstain from fleshy lusts that war against the soul,and abstain from eating blood of animals.

Don't follow the Lord according to a church's interpretation. Read the Bible, learn about the Lord, pray constantly (1 Thess 5:17), develop a personal relationship with the Lord, and do his will as best as you can. Don't let your church do your thinking for you. Instead, set an example for your church.
As for churches that might be imposters, I would beware of institutions that call themselves "churches," that do not believe in God.

Of course there is a very special biblical teaching that needs to be addressed, but apparently no one on this forum knows, who it is who claims to be the shepherd of God's earthly People. Jesus is the good shepherd, but who is the head of the one particular religious organisation, who claims to be Jesus [The shepherd of God's people] on earth?

Elijah, who was carried up to stand by Enoch’s side
Stood by the brook at Kishon where the priests of Baal all died
It was He, who gave the order and the waters all ran red
As fifty and eight hundred more, false prophets all fell dead.
Will you fight the war ‘gainst ignorance, the war that will be won
By those who wield the S-word of God, the sharp two edge-ed tongue….By S-word.
When one stands up for the truth, they should expect to be attacked from all sides. Those who call themselves christians, who love to wallow in the ignorance of the virgin "daughter-wife" of their god, who was born of the (According to them), same spirit, who spawned her son, which is both, "his grandson and son," as they pray to the 'Daughter/wife of their father god,' and mother to the son of her father, who they have carried bodily up to heaven and placed in the throne that they themselves have created, and placed upon her head the crown of co-redemptress of the body of man.
Then also those of the godless religion of the so-called atheists, who feel threatened once they realise that you have come with the truth. That a higher MIND than that of man, has evolved within the eternal cyclic universal body. A MIND far, far, greater than the World Wide Web of information.
As that MIND , is the Supreme Personality of Godhead to the creation, the spirit that has evolved within the body of Mankind, "the Most High" in the creation and who is Lord of creatures: and He, who is fed on all the information gathered through the senses of the body of the Most High in the creation, who has access to all the information gathered from all the human bodies who dwell within Him, "The Son of MAN," is the Most High among the spiritual godheads to the creatures that are lower than man on the ladder of creation. Spalms 82:1; Our God presides in the heavenly council, in the assembly of the gods he gives his decisions.
Those who will choose to pick up the Sword of God, can expect to be insulted, by filty sarcastic harmless tongues, and threatened to be kicked out of their Godless assemblies, which is the only weapon that they have against the truth.
And now my friend, come soar with me
To the outer limits of reality
This universe, though wide it seems
Is but the shadow of our dreams
We are nought but knowledge in these tents
Refined through pain and punishment
We're the hive of man and neath His rod
We are one, we're the Son of God.
The past, the present, the future is He
He was, He is, and He will be
And heaven is but a point in time
To where the spirit in man must climb
Eventually when He's there at last
And stands and gazes on His past
And takes the throne prepared in heaven
Then all His past will be forgiven.
I am who I am, the die is cast
For I was created by my past
And we who we are this very day
Determines His future in every way.
If my past were changed, then who would I be?
One thing is certain, I wouldn't be me......... By S-word.
Kevin, I'm still waiting for you to prove that [strawmanning nonsense deleted again-KB]
Prove to us Kevin, that [more strawmanning nonsense deleted]
Just wondering
