In my question I did not refer to Scottsdale. I am not talking about "Witness Lee's groups" or "StG's group". We are talking about the principles of determining a genuine church. Human names do not play a factor in determining the genuineness of a church.

I am speaking of a situation where two different groups that have no connection or offshooting one from another, who completely independently from each other, both consider themselves the genuine church in that city and believe all other gatherings are NOT the genuine church. In that case, which one is the genuine church? Are you saying it is just who claimed dibbsies first? If so, what if they were established at the same time? Which one, regardless of what they think about themselves, is truly the genuine church?
