Well, there was only one Christian church in early Christian history -- The Catholic Church. And, the truth is Our Lord created and intended for His Church to be: "one church, one faith and one Lord" and said so directly.
Not sure how God views the current state of theological chaos we now have in Christendom. In reality, Truth is Truth. There cannot be multiple authoritative opinions re: "what is truth" certainly not when dealing with Divine Truth. God is Truth.
Example: The Catholic Church declares, definitively, that the lawfully consecrated bread and wine are, in fact, The Body, Blood, Soul & Divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ. The substances of bread and wine appear to remain the same but they are not. They have been transformed/transubstantiated into The Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Many non-Catholic Christians reject this Truth. Both cannot be correct. One of us is wrong. And, this is no small matter and error. Ergo, in Christendom today, we do not have "ONE faith" do we? No. That is in direct violation of the Holy Scripture itself.
