and you said that Jesus stated that He would build His church on the truth that He is the Savior and the Son of God. There was and is no need for any other church to be built or restored

that means that if we believe your logic, there was no need for Protestant churches to be created.
I'm not asking you to believe my logic, the Catholic church named everyone who didn't fall in line with their teaching as Protestants. Catholics actually put their trust in the "church" and the Pope whom they have been trained to call "Holy Father". They must be members of the catholic organization and perform certain prescribed works to be saved. That is not biblical doctrine but catholic doctrine. The Gospel according to Jesus does not need the pope, veneration of Mary and "saints" (they can't hear anyone's prayers) or any other extra-biblical doctrine.
