  Church of Jesus Christ in Zion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Church of Jesus Christ in Zion was also the name of an earlier organization which broke away from the Church of Scientology in the 1970s.
The church was originally the Kansas City Mission Church of Scientology; however, this group broke away from the Church of Scientology, and on March 31, 1975, according to records of the state of Missouri, this group changed its name to the Church of Jesus Christ in Zion.
Thus, the earlier Church of Jesus Christ in Zion was not associated with either the Church of Scientology or the later organization called the Church of Jesus Christ in Zion.

 Latter Day Saint - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Often, the term is used to refer specifically to members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), which is the largest Latter Day Saint denomination.
Because the LDS Church is by far the largest and most well-known Latter Day Saint denomination, a number of denominations who consider themselves Latter Day Saints prefer more informal terms to refer to their members, in order to avoid confusion.
The size and prominence of the LDS Church, however, has led to the terms Mormon and Mormonism being generally understood as applying only to the LDS Church and its polygamous 20th century offshoots, who generally are happy to call themselves Mormons or Latter Day Saints.

 Apologetics Press - In Defense of...Christ's Church
Jesus made it clear that He would provide this way of escape through a plan that would result in the establishment of His church—i.e., His body of “the called out.” The first messianic prophecy was to be fulfilled: Satan would bruise the Lord’s heel, but the Lord would overcome, and bruise Satan’s head (Genesis 3:15).
The body, Christ’s church, would be known as “the church of the Lord” (Acts 20:28), “the church of God” (1 Corinthians 1:2; Galatians 1:13), “the house of God” (1 Timothy 3:15), “the household of faith” (Galatians 6:10), and “the kingdom of God” (Acts 28:23, 31).
Jesus said the time for its coming had been “fulfilled” (Mark 1:15), and that the kingdom was as near as the generation of people to whom He spoke, since some of them would not taste of death before they saw the kingdom of heaven come (Mark 9:1).
