The Catholic Church IS a religious institution.

The body of Christ is made up of saved believers. THere is no one in the RCC who claims they are saved, or can even KNOW if they are saved while they are on this earth. So no, the Catholic Church is NOT the Body of Christ on earth.

of course you don’t know this, i said CHRISTIANS know it as the Body of Christ on earth.

thanks for sharing your thoughts though.
