No, they were catholic, universal.
The capital "c" was added later so some could claim that the only Christians at the time Jesus walked the earth were Catholics, when in fact they were Christians.
say thanks to the Catholics!!
The scriptures come from God, not "Catholics."
Christians thank God, Catholics thank Catholics.
Believe in what you wish, but attempting to change Christians from following God to following a "Pope" (or your misrepresentations lol) is folly.
of course the scriptures come from God....but He used the Catholics to write them....the Apostles were the early Catholic bishops, Paul and others were also early Catholics. God also used the Catholic church to edit, protect, copy, transcribe....whatever needed, the scripture writings. Through the ages the bible was copied, by hand, in Catholic Monastaries throughout the world. It is because of their efforts in this area that we have the bible today....without the work of God THROUGH the Catholic church, you wouldn't even know what a bible was.....they wrote it, they copied it and they saved it for posterity, through the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
