does that mean all churches?

Christ may be found amongst certain churches...but it doesn't mean that the church is the source of salvation. That is reserved for the Solo Savior.

Note, too, in Romans 6:3, we are baptized into a Person, Jesus Christ...not into any church body!

That's a very good answer Colo. After I was saved I found a wonderful, Christ-filled church where I gathered with my fellow believers. I was baptized there.

But I don't "owe" that particular pastor or congregation anything. They don't own me. I belong to Jesus. I know my "church" is anywhere true believers gather to worship in fellowship.
