So what do we call this whole body of knowledge? Only the Catholic Church. In Italian we call it Solamente la Chiesa Cattolica.

 

So  today we can have the traditional mission based upon the necessity of believing in God, the Trinity, Jesus as the Son of God, His Death and Resurrection  and the necessity of membership in the Catholic Church ( Ad Gentes 7, Lumen Gentium 14) , with no known exceptions, for salvation.

There could be catechesis among Catholics, by Catholic evangelizers, who interpret Vatican Council II rationally and so also interpret the First Commandment rationally. There would be the rational interpretation of the Nicene, Apostles and Athanasius Creed, all the Catechisms and the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus with invisible cases of the baptism of desire, invincible ignorance and the baptism of blood not  being visible exceptions.

Then there could be follow up Bible Reading/Discussion Meetings, similar to those of the Neo Catechumenal Way of Kiko Arguello, or other Catholic groups and organizations.

In this way everyone is made aware of the traditional Catholic faith, with the old theology and exclusivist ecclesiology, in harmony with Vatican Council II (Rational). This is irrespective if they attend Holy Mass according to the Neo Cathechumenal Way, Latin,vernacular or the Byzantine Rite or the Syro-Malabar Rite.

So what do we call this whole body of knowledge? Only the Catholic Church. In Italian we call it Solamente la Chiesa Cattolica.
