Wasn't the. original church of Christ ? .Jesus was a Jew and died a Jew..he did not come to start a new religion...some of the people he taught decided to do that...Paul a Roman.... Roman Catholic church...Constantine...even Julius Caesar declared himself a God...lots of god's about then. Religion was the very thing the man they call Jesus in the Bible was against and he would have laughed at a guy in red shoes saying from his throne he was a follower of him!
