This revelation was given in 1838. For the eight years prior to this that the church was in existence, it had been known as "The Church of Christ." The official name of the Church is very important to most of it's members. The name means that this is the Church of Jesus Christ - it is a Christian Church operated directly by Jesus Christ and founded on His teachings and commandments. It also means that it's members should be living as "Latter-day Saints" or, as literal Saints who are living in the Last Days.

What is the real name of the church that Jesus built?
Reasoning would suggest that the church Jesus established would be named, Jesus Christ. If the Lord did establish a church then it is reasonable to assume that within the thousands of churches and sects that exist in the world today, there will be one called the Church of Jesus Christ. If one is looking for God's church I suggest you investigate the scripture in the New Testament, Ephesians 4:5: "One Lord, one faith, one baptism,". That should put you on the right track, but take with you humility and leave the blinkers behind.
