The word "catholic" in the Apostles' Creed is not intended to refer solely to any particular sect (such as the Roman Catholic Church), but is from the Latin word ''catholicus'' meaning "universal", which itself is taken from the Greek ''katholicos'', from ''kata-'' thoroughly and ''holos'' whole.  It is used in the sense of seeking out and embracing all peoples of all times in all places included under the universal authority of one Lord, one God (see Matthew 28:18-20). It was first used in reference to the Christian Church in writing by [[Ignatius of Antioch]] at the beginning of the 2nd century.

Christian singer [[Rich Mullins]] wrote a song version of the Apostles' Creed (simply known as '''Creed''') which was a popular hit on Christian radio.  His version does not include the word "catholic" but uses the phrase "Holy church" instead, so as to not upset Protestants who oppose Catholicism.
