Define the only church in the New Testament.

Conclusion WFTL shows his Christian attitude by his kindness and consideration. He is an individual that belongs to the Church of Christ and genuinely believes that his "church" is the only true Christian Church as demonstrated in the New Testament. Maybe it is because the members of his particular church are kind and considerate to one another, and genuinely study the New Testament to practice what is pleasing to God. I appreciate him sharing the reasons why his church, the Church of Christ, follows the traditions concerning worship services given by Paul in the NT. It wouldn't be fair of me to offer a rebuttal of specific arguments he made during round 4 because he doesn't have an opportunity to counterbalance any rebuttals. I will close with describing what I would consider to be Christ's true church. What exists in lieu of an official true church are true believers that are individuals from many Christian denominations. John 3:16 lets us know who can be saved. "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." This passage is intended for anyone of any denomination, or even for those who believe and yet don't officially belong to any church, or body of believers. The body of believers who are members of Christ's Church are those who believe in him, repent of their sins and do the will of the Father after receiving New Life. The formalities that Paul laid the foundation for, were at a time when Romans were persecuting Christians, as well as Jewish zealots were also, as Paul had also done before his conversion. Certain structures were needed to remain "unspotted from the world," during these crucial times, so it is fitting that early Christian gatherings were organized to remain undetected. James 1:27 "Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world." I will now list and quote all the scriptures I cited to support my claim that Christ's Church isn't a formal body of believers that gather in a specific location. I have already provided evidence for how God wishes to be worshipped, and to worship him truly, we must love our neighbor as we love ourselves. Luke 17:21 "Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you." Luke 7:47-51 47 Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little. 48 And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven. 49 And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that forgiveth sins also? 50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace. John 4:24, "God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth," Matthew 25:34-45 34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: 35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: 36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. 37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? 38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? 39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? 40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. 41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: 42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: 43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. 44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? 45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. 46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal. Matthew 6:43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. 44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; 45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. Matthew 7:7-12 7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. 9 Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? 10 Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? 11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? 12 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. John 10:7-11 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. John 10:16 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. I enjoyed this debate, and would like to thank WFTL for the opportunity to define my beliefs about Christ's church. Please understand that it is not my intention to discredit WFTL's faith as an individual. From his kind persona, I know he is a true follower of Jesus Christ and hope he can come to see that there are individuals outside of his particular denomination, who serve Christ and are also saved by his grace..
