Paragraph 3. THE CHURCH IS ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC, AND APOSTOLIC

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

830
The word “catholic” means “universal,” in the sense of
“according to the totality” or “in keeping with the whole.”
the Church is catholic in a double sense: First, the Church is catholic because
Christ is present in her. “Where there is Christ Jesus, there is the Catholic
Church.”³⁰⁷ In her subsists the fullness of Christ’s body united
with its head; this implies that she receives from him “the fullness of
the means of salvation”³⁰⁸ which he has willed: correct and
complete confession of faith, full sacramental life, and ordained ministry in
apostolic succession. the Church was, in this fundamental sense, catholic on
the day of Pentecost³⁰⁹ and will always be so until the day of the
Parousia.
