[quietthinker]

A better question know that the true is universal and founded by Christ 2000 years ago on Peter and the apostles why do men a heretical sect started 1700 years later could be the one true church???

It appears you are unfamiliar with the context of Jesus' statement tf.

 

[Enoch111]

so Christ did not found a church?

Christ did found a Church. It is the Body of Christ, and consists of all redeemed blood-washed Jews and Gentiles. It is only visible to God and Christ since "the Kingdom of God is within you".

And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, and hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (Rev 1:5,6)
