Maybe this would help:
After Pete said to Jesus,"You are the Christ", Jesus said to him, "You are Petros (masculine- a rock) and upon this Petra (feminine- a gigantic rock like Gibraltar) (Pete's confession of Who Jesus is) I will build My Church.
There is more though.
The prophecy ( I think by Paul) was that in the last days some would DEPART from the faith (the Christian faith)- giving heed to seducing spirits- FORBIDDING to marry and FORBIDDING to eat meats.
Now, which organization is this practice found in?
Ever hear of Catholic priests? (can't marry)
How about Lent? Or fish Friday?
It was stated these would be a couple of signs they have DEPARTED from the Biblical New Testament faith.
Oh, you want more?
OK.
The Mass is a re-sacrifice (fake) ceremony whereby the priest holds up the wafer god (called "Transubstantiation" where he changes the Babylonian/ Egyptian disc into "Jesus" body via a hocus pocus chant.
The official position of the organization for hundreds of years is and has been- anyone denying transubstantiation is CURSED.
The Mass is the foundation of Catholicism, attendance to it is mandatory, along with "Holy days of obligation".
This is NOT Christianity.
"Catholic" means "Universal".
The devil saw he could not kill Christianity by persecution so he created a hierarchy to displace it.
Within that system there are people who do trust what Jesus did personally for them,
and to these people the call will be "Come out of her- My people that you not share in her plagues"
Revelation 18;4.
