Do you think the catholic church is the 'one true church of Christ'?

Answer 1

I agree with Sophie (I like that answer) it cuts to the chase.
Those who have confessed Jesus Christ as lord and believe in there heart (innermost part of the mind) that God raised Jesus Christ from the dead are saved. The word for "saved" is the greek word "sozo" made whole. That saved believer now has God's gift of holy spirit or "Christ in them" the hope of glory. Thus they are now a member of the body of Christ spoken of in 1st Corinthians 12.
Being a believer has nothing to do with what Church you attend but rather fulfilling the conditions of Romans 10:9 (as mentioned above).

Answer 2

I believe the teachings of the Catholic Church.

Here is the full text of the new document that states nothing new: http://www.vatican.va/roman_curia/congregations/cfaith/documents/rc_con_cfaith_doc_20070629_responsa-quaestiones_en.html

Most Christian denominations believe that each of them is the fullest version of the Church of Christ.

While the Catholic Church also believes that she is "the highest exemplar" of the mystery that is the Church of Christ, she does not claim that non-Catholic Churches are not truly Christian. The Catholic Church teaches:

Furthermore, many elements of sanctification and of truth are found outside the visible confines of the Catholic Church: the written Word of God; the life of grace; faith, hope, and charity, with the other interior gifts of the Holy Spirit, as well as visible elements.

Christ's Spirit uses these Churches and ecclesial communities as means of salvation, whose power derives from the fullness of grace and truth that Christ has entrusted to the Catholic Church.

All these blessings come from Christ and lead to him.

With love in Christ.

Answer 3

None of the religious groups, including atheist is the true religion.
All of the churches, including atheist has false teachings.
That's one of the reasons why there's so much fighting going on among the various groups.
Put one book on the earth and not reveal the true meanings of the words, then how many people would read it and assume they understand what the book is saying? Who would believe who? That would depend on how you mind thinks.
When the people reads the bibles that are down there on the earth, then who is guiding them while they read, God or the devil? Jesus said, "Even though you say you go to church, pray to God, it is still the devil who is you father, would guides and instructs you. The bible warns that God is going to guide and instruct only one man, not the people. Jesus warn that it's the devil who will be guiding and instructing the people, not God as they will believe.
The bible warns that the true preist will not be on the earth until the last days. Didn't Jesus warn about the days when you will see the Son of Man, also known as the mediator, returning to the earth?
Didn't Jesus say the day will come when I will no longer speak in parables? Even to the day he rose up, he was still speaking in parables.
Those were signs that those days were not the days of the mediator.
Jesus revealed what the days of the mediator will be like.
That's why Jesus rose up alone, not with others.
The bible warns that the sinners in hell shall remain there till God's son returns and left them up. The bible says all people are sinners.

Answer 4

Nope. The one true church of Christ is the entire body of Christians, not an organization.

Answer 5

It is
Through the study of Scripture and the Church Fathers, we see that, not only is the Catholic faith biblical, Catholicism is Bible Christianity par excellence.

Because the Old and New Testament Scriptures are the divinely-revealed, written Word of God, Catholics venerate the Scriptures as they venerate the Lord's body. But Catholics do not believe that God has given us His divine Revelation in Christ exclusively through Scripture. Catholics also believe that God's Revelation comes to us through the Apostolic Tradition and teaching authority of the Church.

What Church? Scripture reveals this Church to be the one Jesus Christ built upon the rock of Saint Peter (Matt. 16:18). By giving Peter the keys of authority (Matt. 16:19), Jesus appointed Peter as the chief steward over His earthly kingdom (cf. Isaiah. 22:19-22). Jesus also charged Peter to be the source of strength for the rest of the apostles (Luke 22:32) and the earthly shepherd of Jesus' flock (John 21:15-17). Jesus further gave Peter, and the apostles and elders in union with him, the power to bind and loose in heaven what they bound and loosed on earth. (Matt. 16:19; 18:18). This teaching authority did not die with Peter and the apostles, but was transferred to future bishops through the laying on of hands (e.g., Acts 1:20; 6:6; 13:3; 8:18; 9:17; 1 Tim. 4:14; 5:22; 2 Tim. 1:6).

By virtue of this divinely-appointed authority, the Catholic Church determined the canon of Scripture (what books belong in the Bible) at the end of the fourth century. We therefore believe in the Scriptures on the authority of the Catholic Church. After all, nothing in Scripture tells us what Scriptures are inspired, what books belong in the Bible, or that Scripture is the final authority on questions concerning the Christian faith. Instead, the Bible says that the Church, not the Scriptures, is the pinnacle and foundation of the truth (1 Tim. 3:15) and the final arbiter on questions of the Christian faith (Matt. 18:17). It is through the teaching authority and Apostolic Tradition (2 Thess. 2:15; 3:6; 1 Cor. 11:2) of this Church, who is guided by the Holy Spirit (John 14:16,26; 16:13), that we know of the divine inspiration of the Scriptures, and the manifold wisdom of God. (cf. Ephesians 3:10).

Where the Bishop is, there let the multitude of believers be;
