The first thing we need to do to arrive at our answer is go to a simple dictionary, such as dictionary.com
or Merriam-webster dictionary and look up the definition of catholic.

Both dictionaries reference a universal church body.

Biblically and spiritually, the only true universal church is the body of Christ, which is all the born again believers in the age of grace, which is from the day of Pentecost in 28A.D. until the return of Christ in I Thessalonians 4:13-18 which will happen at some point in the future.

It is not any man-made denomination or religion!

The ROMAN catholic church is the world's [Satan's] counterfeit of God's true church, which is the born again believers in the age of grace.

Ephesians 1
15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith [believing] in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,
16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;

17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,

19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working [energizing] of his mighty power,
20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,

21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:
22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things TO THE CHURCH,
23 WHICH IS HIS BODY, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.
