The correct name of the popularly called Catholic Church is The Holy Roman Church. The word "Catholic" is not a part of its official name.

The rise of the Roman Catholic Church?

A: First, as a Catholic, I take issue with the term "Roman Catholicism" or "Roman Catholic." That term did not come into existence until the Protestant Reformation. The term was created by Protestants to describe The Catholic Church. Earliest use of the term was the 16th Century. The Catholic Church Herself does not accept this "qualifier."Example 1: The Catechism of The Catholic Church is not titled: The Catechism of The Roman Catholic Church. There's a reason for that -- such a title would be theologically inaccurate and misleading.Example 2: when referring to The Orthodox Church, we do not call Her The Russian Church or The Greek Church. To do so is inaccurate and dismissive/insulting because The Orthodox Church does not describe Herself by such "qualifiers."Technically, there is no such thing as "the Roman Catholic Church."Second: therefore, the answer to your question is: The Catholic Church "rose" -- came into actual/official existence -- at Pentecost.


Where did the name of the 'Roman Catholic Church' come from?

== The name "Roman Catholic Church" entered use after the Protestant Reformation. The term is used in English speaking countries; with the advent of Anglicanism, as well as other denominations that began making English converts, there began a dispute over what group had claim over the official title of "The Church". To distinguish it from themselves, the Anglicans began to call it the Roman Catholic Church to signify its nature, having its head in Rome (the pope) and invoking its unofficial title of being "Catholic" or universal. Over time this title has organically grown into modern usage, however, only among English speakers. The "Roman Catholic" Church continues to refer to itself simply as "The Church" in all its official documents.
