You need to get out more. Read some material not shoved down your throat by Rome. There is a whole world of real truth that says there has always been a group protesting the abomination from Rome. Your historical survey has no connection to reality and their gospel is from the pit.
You may think Jesus spoke about the Catholic Church, but it was the end of the third century before the words were used. The story you hear is rewritten history, friend. We are of the strain of the Apostle Paul and the real Apostle Peter (not the trumped up "first pope" trash peddled by Rome. They can keep the bone they own...we have the man that wrote the epistles and dispelled the humanism Rome holds. Sorry fellas/girls).
Jesus promised to rescue those whom He elected (John 6) and no one whom He did not choose may come close. That is why you will find some pounding on the door claiming they performed miracles (Rome? Medjagorje? Weeping pictures?), but are cast into hell. Rome needs to repent...if it can.
I guess hate, couched in criticism, is considered part of your church's belief?

while it’s true that there have always been dissenters....the Jews were first, but as time went by those dissenters became known as heretics....teaching things that were anathema to the newly formed Catholic church. At the first vatican council, several of those were rooted out and exposed for what they were. Throughout her magnificent history, Catholocism has weathered various dissident groups and protestantism is merely the latest. She’ll weather this one too and as protestant churches dissolve and return to the fold, christianity will once again be the church that Jesus envisioned....the Catholic church. The church of England and maybe the ELCA are leaning that way now.
