What is a True Church? Church is the Community of believers who have the unity of faith and are separated from this world in order to do the Will of God on this earth. What is the Church of God? Most Christians think that the hierarchy or priests constitute the Church. Some others think that Church is the building and material arrangement put together. Many Christians are of the opinion that the Church authorities can make mistakes, but Church will not. If so what is the Church? Is the council the Church? Who has authority in the Church? Is it the Holy Spirit or the Church authorities? What is the view of Jesus Christ about His Church? How did Jesus Christ institute the early church? Jesus Christ formed the early Church after bringing the people of God out of the existing Church of Judah. There is no church without the coming out of the slavery of sin and from all worldly situations. Holy Mother brought Jesus Christ out of the Judah church, when He was twelve. But one must come out only when the time is right. Coming out is justified only when the Son of God is outside waiting for you. Though the Apostles lived with Jesus Christ and learned from Him for three years, they did not receive Wisdom. That is why they did not understand the life and death of Jesus Christ and deserted Him during His sufferings. After His resurrection, Jesus Christ brought them out and opened their hearts to understand the Holy Scriptures (Lk. 24:44-45). Then, they were given Divine Wisdom by Holy Mother and on the Pentecost they received the Holy Spirit. Thus the Church is the flock that is separated by God to obey the Word of God. - See more at: emperoremmanuel/page.php?slug=temp_four_content&id=254#sthash.FuBthVlk.dpuf
