Evangelicals cannot really answer that sort of practical question because their concept of one true church in the city is theoretical and expected to be fulfilled in practice in a future time when Christ returns.

The new believer should pray and follow the Lord. That is how the Spirit led me and countless others. Our Heavenly Father will direct his path to a congregation, part of the one true church.
It is your LC "vision" which is theoretical. Your leaders preach oneness more than any other, yet are more stubborn, proud, arrogant, and divisive than any others. They are modern day Pharisees, whose teachings are filled with leaven.
The "one true church" is the spiritual body of Christ, composed of His own children meeting in numerous places. Your vision of the "one true church" is a building with an address and a website linking them with
dead ministers. When looking for the "one true church," one desires to find a
living minister, One who has risen from the dead, a merciful and faithful High Priest in things pertaining to God.
