this is an easy question for a real christian. Romans 16:16. this is the place in the new testament where the name of the church appears. and it is obvious that the church of Christ cannot have a different name. it is just The Church of Christ

I'm not sure if your question is serious, but the Bible does not suggest the building of churches as seen in America today. The scriptures in the New Testament portray what a home/cell church, a fellowship of believers, might look like and the Old Testament vividly describes the Temple of God and both contain many references to the synagogue, a place of learning.
If you are looking for denominational foundations, those are all man's idea of what he believes God wants as a foundation for fellowship.
I hope I have been of some help.

There was only 1 church in existence for the first 1500 years of Christianity, the church Jesus personally founded. The same church he appointed St. Peter to lead. That was the same church which was called Catholic by St. Ignatius, who was a disciple of St. John the evangelist, the last surviving apostle. St. Ignatius started calling the church Catholic early in the 1st century. It's the same church that's called Catholic today.
No where in the bible does the bible claim to be the only authority on anything, but 1st Timothy 3:15 clearly states that the church is the pillar and ground of the truth.
Here's the scripture verse for you:
1Ti 3:15 But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.

The Church
There is only one true Church. And Jesus The Christ is The Head of The Church.
Ephesians 1:22 , 5:23
For those of The Church, The Word of God is what is important. Not a man invented denomination. It is in The Word, and in The Name of God, and The Head of our Church, Christ Jesus, that we gather. The particular building dose not matter. So Long as The Word is first in it.

No where. God did not create a man-made church/ denomination/ religion..His true church is made up of born-again people, those who truly put faith in Him for their salvation and souls. It is a spiritual church, composed of many people of different backgrounds, cultures, race, religions, & nations. We are members of that true church, which is the body of Christ.
