Catholic AnswerThe Catholic Church looks on our separated brethren with love and concern. All of those who are validly baptized are Christians, and we are responsible for them as our brothers in Christ. The primary effort of the Church with regard to these separated brethren is the ecumenical movement which is the Church's effort to return them to the Church and help ensure their salvation. Many of the efforts by the Second Vatican Council were aimed at reuniting Christians into the Church. The Church has made a lot of headway with specific denominations, such as the Lutherans, and the reunion of those who are Catholic in that they still have valid sacraments and clergy, such as the Orthodox, the Old Catholics, the Polish National Catholics, and the Society of St. Pius X are dear the the heart of the Church.

Was Paul a Christian or a Catholic?
Catholics are Christians. Your question is probably implicitly, "Was Paul a Catholic or another type of Christian?" That would depend on who you ask. Catholics consider the Catholic Church as the institution founded by Christ, and thus every Christian recognized by the Church as a Christian is a Catholic. In modern times, where Christian denominations exist, it would be asserted by these denominations that the Catholic Church began at such a time or at such and such an event, usually sometime in the 4th or 10th century, depending on what source is consulted. This would make Paul a Christian retroactively claimed by the Catholic Church as a Catholic. Evidence of Paul following the traditions now considered "Catholic" are his celibacy, priesthood, observation of faith and works, doctrine of the mystical body of Christ, observance and participation in an established Church hierarchy, literal understanding of the Eucharist as Christ's Body and Blood, etc.
