The Mormon Church is "The Church"?

My point is that omitting such groups and others like them has no impact on Luther recovering salvation by faith alone.

Could we apply that same line of reasoning to Witness Lee’s churches?

Of course, go ahead. Let's compare how many things have been recovered by Nee/Lee as compared to the Coptic church. Many positive things have come out of the recovery and these are even stated on this forum if you look hard enough.

I do not recall however anyone posting about how much the Coptic church has benefited them, or even the EOC for that matter.

If anyone thinks these churches don't need recovering or reforming then why not join them like Hanegraaf did? Based on his words that the EOC did not have a Reformation, I suspect we shall see Aron's conversion to the EOC any day now.

That's not an option here in Kentucky. Neither is the so called recovered churches. I'm in the church of no city, since I live out in the county. But there are plenty of Christians in this church, all around me. Do they need perfecting in Christ? Yes! Just like the rest of us, including those in the so called recovered churches. The recovered churches just think they are better than all the rest ... but they are not ... their cultic ways make them worse.

That is no excuse, Kentucky is where they recovered the church back to Noah's Ark isn't it?

Ha ha. Good one bro. Ky recovered the church back to the Flintstones, when people rode dinosaurs.
