The original what? Church? Christian Church? It would seam to me anyway that the temple in Jerusalem was the first formal place of worship.
Striaght off their web site....
The literature on this site is published by the United Church of God, an International Association, which has ministers and local congregations in the United States and many countries around the world. We trace our origins to the Church that Jesus founded in the early first century. We follow the same teachings, doctrines and practices established then. Our commission is to proclaim the gospel of the coming Kingdom of God to all the world as a witness and teach all nations to observe what Christ commanded (Matthew 24:14; 28:19, 20).

If you mean is it the first Christian church, no, there was no special name for the Bride. Christians are simply the people who choose to follow Christ's teachings.
All of the different churchs and doctrines ... are traditions of man, not God

Lets set the record straight. Ever hear of Isaiah?
Hears what God told him.
Isaiah 43:10-11
10Â “YOU are my witnesses,” is the utterance of Jehovah, “even my servant whom I have chosen, in order that YOU may know and have faith in me, and that YOU may understand that I am the same One. Before me there was no God formed, and after me there continued to be none. 11Â I—I am Jehovah, and besides me there is no savior.”

I have heard that the "Church of God" is the original, completely unchanged church since Jesus Christ.

It is not the original church and it is not the only church going to heaven.

Each of the myriad denominations of Christianity is the one true church. Just ask any member.

I am an ex catholic, religion is a business so wise up, no one is really interested in that crap anymore, it was forced on me, and is forced on others. The perpetrators are still at it, immune to prosecution, as are most religious businesses, for thats what they really are.

Don`t all Protestant denominations and their offshoots claim this anyway,so one more is hardly a surprise.
Imitation though is said to be the sincerest form of flattery!
