There IS Salvation Outside the
Roman
Catholic Church
Regardless of What The Roman Catholic Catechism Claims
We Can Confirm It Using the Holy Scriptures
Part III
PURPOSE
The overall purpose of this four-part document is to ensure that the
fewest number of Christians - mostly Catholic - do not fall in the
death trap of adoring the False Christ who will be sprung upon the
unsuspecting humanity right before the true Second Coming of Christ.
We wish to remind the reader that we consider: (a)
the
Catholic Faith
the faith with most revealed truths - thus the most
effective faith to establish a solid link with God; (b) and
there was a real,
valid and necessary
Petrine
Ministry which
used to be
fulfilled by the
Bishop of Rome.
INTRODUCTION
In the First Part [1]
of this document we explained the Theology which confirmed the reality
that there is Salvation outside the Roman Catholic Church. To do
so we
used the same document that Ratzinger's Congregation for the Doctrine
of the
Faith originally published, Dominus
Iesus.
In the Second Part [2] we dismantled the
efforts
of the second non-Pope after
John Paul II, the Argentinean Jorge Bergoglio, who was, once again,
trying to
pass as a Divine Truth the lie that there is only Salvation from within
the Roman Catholic Church [3][4][5].
In Part III of this document we are going to quote
directly from the Roman Catholic Church Catechism and, in an
unassailable
manner, dismantle their claim about said requirement once and for all.
DETAILS
Quoting from the appropriate section [6] of the official
Catechism of the Roman Catholic Church...
845...
"Outside the Church there is no salvation"
846 How are we to understand this
affirmation, often repeated by the Church Fathers? Re-formulated
positively, it means that all salvation comes from Christ the Head
through the Church which is his Body:
Basing itself on Scripture and
Tradition, the Council teaches that the Church, a pilgrim now on earth,
is necessary for salvation: the one Christ is the mediator and the way
of salvation; he is present to us in his body which is the Church. He
himself explicitly asserted the necessity of faith and Baptism, and
thereby affirmed at the same time the necessity of the Church which men
enter through Baptism as through a door. Hence they could not be saved
who, knowing that the Catholic Church was founded as necessary by God
through Christ, would refuse either to enter it or to remain in it.
The Administrators insist in confusing
the faithful
with the proverbial "smoke and mirrors" as they present the Body of
Christ exclusively as the Roman Catholic Church.
The
Body of Christ is
composed by all who strive to live and uphold the teachings of our Lord
Jesus Christ -
it
does not matter what group he/she belongs to.
Otherwise we would be going against a fundamental teaching of Jesus
Christ:
Master,
we saw a certain man casting out devils in thy name, and we forbade
him, because he followeth not with us. And Jesus said to him: Forbid
him not; for he that is not
against you, is for you. [Luke 9: 49-50]
Any claim of
exclusivity goes against the crystal clear instructions of Jesus Christ
- and that, using the term frequently used by the Roman Catholic Church
Administration, is heresy!
But that is not all. If one is to believe that there is no Salvation
outside the
Roman
Catholic Church then, the members of the following Christian Churches -
which appear in the Holy Scriptures - were not saved.
Jerusalem
Antioch
Corinth
Ephesus
Laodicea
Thessalonia
Smyrna
Pergamus
Thyatira
Sardis
etc., etc. Just to mention a few
A consideration which is
utterly ridiculous!
Now they try, with the use of more of the proverbial "smoke and
mirrors",
to confuse the issue further:
831...
Each particular Church is "catholic"
832 "The Church of Christ is
really present in all legitimately organized local groups of the
faithful, which, in so far as they are united to their pastors, are
also quite appropriately called Churches in the New Testament.... In
them the faithful are gathered together through the preaching of the
Gospel of Christ, and the mystery of the Lord's Supper is
celebrated.... In these communities, though they may often be small and
poor, or existing in the diaspora, Christ is present, through whose
power and influence the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church is
constituted."
833 The phrase "particular
church," which is the diocese (or eparchy), refers to a community of the
Christian faithful in communion of faith and sacraments with their
bishop ordained in apostolic succession. These particular
Churches "are constituted after the model of the universal Church; it
is in these and formed out of them that the one and unique Catholic
Church exists."
As you may see, their point is that unless a group of individuals, who
are striving to live by word and deed the Word of God, is not under the
authoritative boot of a bishop ordained in apostolic succession, that
group will not be saved.
Perhaps they have forgotten that many of the churches in
the area between the time of the Crucifixion of Jesus and the
destruction of the Temple of Jerusalem were established by Paul
who was not a member of the
original twelve. As a matter of fact, Paul was "ordained" by
Jesus via a direct supernatural intervention while using Ananias - a
disciple,
but not one of the
Twelve - for the imposition of hands upon Paul.
[Acts
9:1-20]
May those who have eyes, See and those who have ears, Hear!
CONCLUSION
We close the third part of this series
of documents by, once again, reminding all of the crystal clear
position of our Lord Jesus Christ - the True, and only, Head of
the Mystical Body of Christ:
Master,
we saw a certain man casting out devils in thy name, and we forbade
him, because he followeth not with us. And Jesus said to him: Forbid
him not; for he that is not
against you, is for you. [Luke 9: 49-50]
Which is confirmed and expanded by Mark:
Master,
we saw one casting out devils in thy name, who followeth not us, and we
forbade him. But Jesus said: Do not forbid him. For there is no man that doth a
miracle in my name, and can soon speak ill of me. For he that is
not against you, is for you. For
whosoever shall give you to drink a cup of water in my name, because
you belong to Christ: amen I say to you, he shall not lose his reward. [Mark
9:38-41]
miguel de Portugal directs now to the
Temple Masters of our time -
the Administrators of the Roman Catholic Church -
in the Holy Name of God, the same words Jesus used when
addressing the Temple Masters of His time:
Woe
to
you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you go round about the
sea and the land to make one proselyte; and when he is made, you make him
the child of hell twofold more than yourselves. [Matthew
23:15]
EPILOGUE
Never forget that....
....as I have been with Moses, so will I be
with thee: I will not leave thee, nor forsake thee. [Josue
1:5]
and
Who
then shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation? or
distress? or famine? or nakedness? or danger? or persecution? or the
sword?
As it is written: For thy sake we are put to death all the day long. We
are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. But in all these things we
overcome, because of him that hath loved us.
For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor
angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor
things to come, nor might, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be
able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our
Lord. [Romans 8:35-39]
