The Catholic Church is the Mystical Body of Christ which, obviously, was established by Him, primarily from His side as He hung dead on the cross and was pierced by a lance, and blood and water flowed out - representing the sacraments of Baptism and the Eucharist. Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ, appointed St. Peter as It's first visible head (the first "Pope") in St. Matthew's Gospel 16:17-19, and guaranteed that it would remain as the infallible way to heaven until the end of the world. He sent the Holy Spirit to guide it always. The Church of England is a protestant ecclesial community which was established by King Henry VIII, his daughter, Elizabeth I, as their own "church" when they could not abide the commands of Our Blessed Lord given through His Church. It is entirely a human institution, howbeit with some Catholic "trappings", but Pope Leo XIII ruled in Apostolicae Curae on 18 September 1896 that its Orders are null and void, thus unlike the Orthodox Church, it is no "Church" as properly understood, at all.
