The disciples of Jesus Christ who were used by the Holy Spirit to pen Scripure, never used either the word or the concept of “Catholic.”

The name came later; but they were Catholic nonetheless.

So, put three to five Scriptures in a string that domonstrate the concept of “Catholic,” and how that applies to the Church of Rome.

I would suggest that "Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel, baptizing in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit" pretty much nails down both catholic and apostolic as being at the core of what the Church is.
