The New Testament contains a book from the Apostle to the Gentiles to the church at Rome in the First Century.

You mean the one where Paul wrote about all have sinned...which would include Mary (Rms 3:23).

The one where he talks about salvation through faith in Christ (Rms 5) and through Christ alone and which is a free gift (Rms 3:24) by which is not dependent upon works? (Rms 3:27-28)

The one which teaches the Holy Spirit is always praying for us? Rms (8:26-7)

The one that Paul wrote to saying:

8But what does it say? “THE WORD IS NEAR YOU, IN YOUR MOUTH AND IN YOUR HEART”—that is, the word of faith which we are preaching,

9that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved;

10for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.

11For the Scripture says, “WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.”

What Paul does not say is very telling. Romans contradicts so much of Roman Catholic theology.

As I noted...the Roman Catholic church is not found in the New Testament.

To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world. For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers;

...

Salute one another with an holy kiss. The churches of Christ salute you. Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple. For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil.
