“Good Catholics, all.”
No more Catholic than I am. I’m beginning to think that some think that before Christ ascended, he waved a magic wand and dubbed them all “Catholic”. There was NO Catholic church in the first century.

There was NO Catholic church in the first century.Your absolutism is misplaced. There was NO church BUT the Catholic Church in the first century. It was His plan.

There was NO Catholic church in the first century. Amen. No Roman Catholic church. The church at Rome did not assert itself until the sixth century.
There has always been the catholic, or universal church of Jesus Christ, made up of all those who are His.
