So why do you believe Eastern is correct and Oriental is wrong? And what if you pick the wrong one? Does Christ’s blood still redeem you or only if you are part of the One True Church?

The Oriental Church split off after the council of Chalcedon (mid 5th century).

The council confirmed that Christ has two natures- divine and human but the Oriental Church disagreed (monophysites) and has not been in communion with the Orthodox Church since.

Yes, I read up on this schism and it seemed like splitting hairs over something that is not worth breaking fellowship.
