And your 7 year posting history is a supporting testimony that being Catholic believe in Jesus and are just as saved as those in the store front churches so many "individual believers" attend?

People who trust Christ alone for salvation and not their church are saved no matter what church they go to or if they even go at all.

There are going to be saved and unsaved people in every church. The only difference is going to be in the ratios, with some denominations having a higher saved to unsaved ratio than others.

People are not saved because they're Catholic, or Baptist, or Lutheran, but in spite of it.

"People who trust Christ alone for salvation and not their church are saved no matter what church they go to or if they even go at all."

Then why the constant lack of respect and the twaddle condemning Catholics because of Catholicism? Your actions don't match your rhetoric. It is possible to disagree without being disagreeable.

"But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. “Do not fear their threats; do not be frightened.”

"But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander." - 1 Peter 3:14-16

That's Bible 101...Saved people were added to the church...No one did or could become a member of the Body of Christ without first being saved...As a result, there are no unsaved people in the 'church'...

And as you say, the church is not an organization...The church is an organism...
