The Church existed before the bible, the bible is God's Word put in written form for the Church.

But you know - I looked all through my Catholic Bible (yes I still use it over the KJV,NIV) and cant find an epistle or letter or gospel to say we need to become Catholic.....everything I see says become a Christian

There is only one Church, the one Christ established, the one you are protesting as a Protestant minister.

[Revelation 911]

The Church existed before the bible, the bible is God's Word put in written form for the Church.

please clarify your point - are you saying the church existed before Genesis was written?

perhaps it would help if you defined Church / bible - Im getting the impression you are ignoring the OT
