Roman Catholic AnswerThe Gospels in the Bible are Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The "Catholic Bible" is the Bible as used by the Church for two millenium.
Roman Catholic AnswerThe Catholic Church wrote the New Testament, and decided which books would make up the canon of the Bible as we have it today. In other words, it preceded the Bible, and wrote it; authors do not normally include their names in their books - or answers for that matter. I do not write "PiusX says" although Wiki puts my name down at the bottom, you don't see me write it in the answer normally.

The word "Catholic" just means universal, and wasn't applied to the Church until the end of the first century.
