In every country too ... Composed of all the true, believing, born again, blood washed, children of God.
What's scary are the LC demands that only LSM books are read, only LSM trainings are legit and required, only LSM appointed elders must rule this church in every city, only LSM ...

Yes I know that, but that's the theoretical one true church that does not exist in practice. Suppose there is a person who has just converted to Christianity. He wants to meet with the "one true church" in the city. Where should he meet?
If he asks an evangelical person they might say "there is a good baptist church on 32nd street, I think that will suit you". And the person asks them "is this the one true church in the city?" and the evangelical person would normally say no, right? They might explain how denominations are a present reality until Christ returns.
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.
