Which is the True Church Established by Jesus Christ?
Assume for a moment that there is only one true religion. Consequently, that would make all other religions false. Persons in these false religions may be sincere, and if in the sight of God they are doing all in their power to live holy lives as God wants them to; they are in a certain sense part of the true Church, though not purposefully so.
The heart of the matter is this: There is but one religion in the world, which is divine, and all others necessarily must be rejected as false. Any system of religion, which proposes false teachings or mingles falsehood with truth, is certainly a false religion.
A thing is morally good only if it is completely good; it is morally wrong if it is even partially flawed. A religion is justifiable only if it is in accord with the law of God. A religion is good only if it worships God as God should be worshipped and if its practice leads of its very nature to unity with God.
Man is bound by conscience to search diligently for the true religion. If a religion is presented, which, with some real plausibility claims to be revealed by God, we must investigate that religion seriously and embrace it, should its claims be proved.
Premise: There is but one Church in the world whose origins can be traced back directly to Jesus Christ, that Jesus left behind a visible Church with consecrated bishops, possessing authority to teach and preach a set form of doctrine, including faith, repentance, baptism and obedience to the commandments. He actually designated a “prime-minister” to this divinely instituted ecclesiastical organization — Peter , who was to preside over the other officers of the Church and to see to it that her disciplines and doctrines were faithfully obeyed, and that this Church would exist until the end of time.
Ideal for anyone searching for the one, true Church established by Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Also for RCIA, Confirmation, and Adult Education classes.

Devotion to the souls in Purgatory contains in itself all the works of mercy, which supernaturalized by a spirit of faith, should merit us Heaven. de Sales
