Acts 2:47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.

The church was not born here as you say......Joel was quoted as being fulfilled to Israel.

How could the church be born when the Lord ADDED to the church?

The church added to was the church of God, the remnant of Israel, the little flock.

Yes, the church is added to each day and when the number that fulfills the prophecy, we will be raptured. Simple as that.

Joel was speaking about Israel during the Day of the Lord....not what you wanted him to  say.

If one builds a church Brick and Mortar and opens its door on April 5, 1999. At this time it has 100 members and at some time in the future, this church receives into their congregation many new members all at one time....Does this Church change its starting date because of these new members....Doug, This is not even logical....

The Church (Body of Christ) has been accepting members from day one when it received three thousand. How many did it receive from that time until Acts 10 where it received 5,000 more. Maybe we should make its starting date, Acts 10.... It is logical according to you... along this line of thinking, the newest person on earth that was saved was a few seconds ago. Then the Church should change its starting date to today July 20,2020. It would fit in with your illogical thinking.
