Yeah, because how old something is totally defines how good and right it is.

I think the catholic church began in Genesis 11.
1. Land forever. Gen 17:8 (KJV)
2. City FROM heaven. Rev 21:2 (KJV)
3. Heavenly places. Eph 2:6-7(KJV)
Don't mix them, leavening the whole household of God. Luke 13:21 (KJV)
Rev 22:14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Joh 4:23 "But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers.

Regarding ecclesiology, if it's directly traceable through history to Jesus Christ and the apostles (as is the Catholic Church), absolutely.

The Body of Christ was established by Jesus Christ when he founded his Church in 33 A.D. They are one and the same.
