The Catholic Church was founded by Jesus Christ and built upon the Apostles and their successors. It's very important for people who aren't yet Catholic to enter the Church; and for those who are Catholic to remain so.

Yet I know that "The Good News is preached to the poor" is one of the "signs" of the Kingdom of God----so I admire the zeal of the Pentecostals and Evangelicals who are reaching out to the poor and the stranger.

So let's try to out-do each other in faith, hope, and love, drawing closer to Christ and helping others drew closer to Christ. A vast competition in doing good. Wouldn't that cause a jigging celebration amongst the angels of heaven?

Jesus of Nazareth was a Jew. The church that followed was founded by His sucessors.
