Taking into account the writings from the book of Revelation, is it right to consider itself the only Church recognized by Jesus Christ?
In the book of Revelation, Jesus holds the seven stars (the seven angels of the seven churches) in his right hand, he walks in the middle of seven golden lampstands (the seven churches) and he addresses the letters to seven churches to announce his return. Doesn't this seem in contradiction with those churches that sustain to be the only one recognized by Jesus Christ? This is a passage from the Catechism of the Catholic Church: "The Church Is One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic. This is the sole Church of Christ, which in the Creed we profess to be one, holy, catholic and apostolic." There is also written in the Revelation that who pretends to have superior authority, in reality, is lying.
