Nonbiased which Christian church was the first?

In 31 Ad, on the Day of Pentecost: the holy spirit descended onto disciples + brethren gathered indoors. That right then, was the birth of the New Testament post Christ's death church. Named 'Christians' from Christ as they were His followers. Apostles prophesied the perversion of this true Christianity by subversive religious enemies of Yahweh + its splintering resulting. Yahweh's true church has always existed since then + into modern times, although often very small + even underground. Ancient Israel is referred to as the 'church in the wilderness." At the very end, when Christ returns: Yahweh's true church WILL be + is described in Revelation as a "small flock' that the gates of hell will never overcome! The RCchurch history is linked to Simon Magus, the magician mentioned in the NT. The RCc has via popes: presumed to "change times + dates" as prophesied centuries ago; even changing God's 10 commandments + enforcing Sunday 'day of the sun' worship over God's weekly Sabbath. Mithraism was melded by the RCc into their theology + named Christmas! Which city do you feel is mentioned in the bible as among ' 7 hills? ' That city is where the great false prophet will dwell!

According to the four Gospels and the Acts of the Apostles, about the year 33 C.E., the structure of the Church was set up by Jesus Christ before His Ascension and then the early Christian Church was born on Pentecost when the Holy Spirit descended upon the Apostles and disciples.

This same Church has referred to itself as the “Catholic Church” at least since 107 C.E. (about 10 years after the last book of the New Testament was written), when the Greek term "Katholikos" (meaning universal) appears in the Letter of St. Ignatius of Antioch to the Smyrnaeans:

"Wherever the bishop appear, there let the multitude be; even as wherever Christ Jesus is, there is the Catholic Church."

We do not know how long they had been using the term "Catholic" before it was included in this rare surviving letter.

All of this was long before the Council of Nicea and the Nicene Creed from 325 C.E. which states, "We believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church."

With love in Christ.

The first Christian church was the Jerusalem church of the followers of Jesus, eventually led by James, the brother of Jesus. They considered themselves a sect within Judaism.

Jesus Christ came first and formed the first Christian church--on whose foundation and authority and sovereignty --the Christian body of believers

-aka the Christian church stand upon---

Another name for Jesus is "the Rock of my salvation" on which I the Christian stand--by faith upon.

Matt:16V16ff:"And Simon Peter answered and said, "Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

V17:"And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.

V18:"And I say unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it."

Some use this passage to teach that Peter was the foundation of the church, that he had a primacy among the apostles, and that he became Bishop of Rome.

The verse will scarcely bear the first of these propositions and certainly none of the others.

Peter may be meant by the rock but he is not the exclusive foundation.

For the twelve-fold foundation of the apostles of the church; Ephesians 2V20; and Revelation 21:14.

This seems borne out of the fact that the same words are spoken to all the disciples in Matthew 18V18 as are spoken to Simon Peter in 16V19.

Therefore the rock or foundation of the church is the confession (ultimately, the doctrine) of the apostles which became normative for the true church.

The word here translated "church" (Gr. ekklesia) means literally "a chosen or called-out assembly."

Thus the use of the word as a technical term for an assembly or group of believers in Christ was quite natural.

It is not viewed as an external organization, denomination, or hierarchial system.

The New Testament church, therefore, is a local autonomous congregation or assembly of believers, which is a "church" in and of itself.

This is the first occurrence of the word in the New Testament.

Since the commission of Matthew 10 sent eh apostles only to the "house of Israel," and no further commission was given until chapter 28, there was no worldwide task for the disciples until the physical manifestation of the church on the Day of Pentecost.

Jesus promises that "the gates of hell shall not prevail" against the church.

The phrase "shall not prevail should be understood as meaning "shall not stand against."

The imagery would then picture the church as being on the offensive against the gates of hell.

Here hell (Gr. haides) probably represents the kingdom of Satn, not just death and the grave.

While Jesus' resurrection certainly will overcome the sting of death, it will also enable His church to aggressively and offensively attack the gates of hell (usage as Satan's kingdom in Job 38V17; Is:38:10; Ps.107V18) by snatching out victims from darkness into His glorious kingdom of light.

The church is on the offensive here and hell is on the defensive.

The church of Christ is the one which uses only the Bible and not man's word.

Where in the bible does it command people to be popes or nuns? No where. The catholic church is false.

The early church bore no name i.e.catholicism..but it eventually was named catholicism..satan infiltrated her and corrupted from within...and we see this clearly with popes..confession to priests...thinking to change Gods laws and times I.e. sun day over Gods Sanctified set aside 7th day Sabbath for which she claimed ecclesiastical authority.. She condemns Gods Word aka Sola Scriptural As IF Gods Word is not suffice.. God forbid!!! Her golden cup is Full of the blood of the saints and abominations...former rcc btw
