The Catholic Church is the only official voice of Our Blessed Lord in the world today. Our Blessed Lord commissioned "His" Church with St. Peter (and his successors) at its head to preach His message and spread His Gospel (see St. Matthew 16:17-19). All those who protested against some of the Church's teachings are known as heretics (persons professing heresy; heresy refers to to a doctrinal belief held in opposition to an established system of thought, in this case, the teaching of Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ, as taught by His Church: the Catholic Church.
