The church (Dr Ludwig Ott: 270) is a designation for the Christian cult- structure since the beginning of the fourth century. In the profane sense, it designates the ssembly of the people, the civil community or any kind of gathering of people but in the religion sense it means the community of God. Other synonymous designation is the kingdom of heaven, kingdom of God church, house of God. But the Roman catechism supported by St. Augustine. (Psalms 149 . 3) gives the following definition of the concept “ The Church is the faithful of all the whole world”.
