the Church instituted by Jesus & his Apostles; you don’t abandon the Church that authored the Bible & is the oldest institution in Western Civilization
Jesus seems to disagree when he threatens to destroy bad churches in the first part of Revelation... I personally find the RCC to be so far removed from the simplicity of the Gospel that it's surely on the chopping block, and this I would say 1,000 years ago, well before Pius XII. Again, who is God telling to come out of her my people, and where are they being told to come out of? If a church sets itself up in a way contrary to God's instructions, should it remain?
And yet, the Church is still here. If Napoleon, Gangis Ka’an & the Satanic Freemasons haven’t been able to destroy the Church yet, I believe she is proving the rest of time.
When was your personal church established? 1997? 2015? 1989?
And you still don't answer my questions! That church need not the help of any; she destroys herself repeatedly, as do her daughters the various Protestant sects as well as the secret societies, the odd sects like Mormons and JW, EO seems to be the least perverse though I don't really know much about it. That's an area of study I'd like to explore some day.
I don't have a personal church as I cannot tolerate any of the local assemblies within any reasonable travel distance from my home, sadly, so I stick to small fellowship and online fellowship for the time being.

Put out their candles. Tell them brother.
