Default Re: Do you think Christianity is degraded?

The genuine church is founded not on doctrine nor practice, but is...
...built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. Ephesians 2:20.

The genuine church is founded on the person of Christ Jesus himself.

All others that are founded on doctrine or practice (e.g. helping orphans and widows) are degraded, because they have not "held onto the head":

Col 2:19 "He does not hold on to the head, from whom the whole body, which is nourished and held together by its joints and ligaments, grows as God enables it."

A church that does not hold onto Christ but holds onto other things (good works, sound doctrine etc), have become separated from the Head and lost the reality, since the "reality is Christ" (Colossians 2:17).

The RC church is one that has held onto a doctrine and practice of good works, worship of saints/angels etc.
