Why Catholic?
Because—Jesus is not the author of confusion. He established the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church. Jesus sees and speaks of His Kingdom with great precision and detail. Many protestant Churches claim to be following Christ truthfully with a sincere and honest heart. They can't all be true.
Just before his ascension, He said to His Apostles, "go ye, teach all nations: baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and the Holy Ghost, teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world (Mt 28:19-20)
The Vision of the Whole World
If we don’t see the world clearly, we see confusion, or we miss something altogether. Looking at the world through the eyes of Jesus, we see what Jesus sees; we see the truth of the whole world. When we rely on our own eyes and look directly at Jesus, we see the world the way we want it, not as it actually is. The word Catholic means universal. Jesus would of course establish his church for all people of all times and of all places.
Despite its problems, Christ promised his Church would not fail. Though He would be crucified and buried, He began building his Church long before his death with the Apostles. Jesus promised that the powers of death could not hold him in. Not only would the Church be established in spite of the powers of Hades or hell, but it would also thrive in spite of these powers. The Church will never fail; though generation after generation succumbs to the power of physical death, yet other generations will arise to perpetuate the Church. continuing reading
