We have OCOC now. Or one church one country, or one church period. There is only one Lord, one Spirit, one body. This is the spiritual reality already. Everything else is a lie.
OCOC isn't mentioned in scripture, so therefore I shouldn't be too dogmatic about it, nor is it essential to the faith. It's just a reality in Spirit.
OCOC maybe has too much "baggage" associated with it. And gathering or assembly seems to be much less confusing than the archaic "church." So yes, many gatherings in a city, but they are still of one body in that area - is that maybe a better way to put it?
