However, since the Protestant revolt in the sixteenth century, there are people who are not visible members of the Catholic Church who are considered Christians as they have been validly baptized and believe in the Nicene Creed in its traditional interpretation.
Your confusion may stem from the protestant revolt when the heretics who left the Church called themselves "Christians" and used that word to exclude Christians who belong to the Catholic Church. This is an error, and historically incorrect.
All Catholics are Christians, not all Christians are Catholics.
