THE BIBLE SAYS OUTSIDE THE CATHOLIC CHURCH THERE IS NO SALVATION
Jesus died and is risen.With
this Sacrifice he offered his life.It was for the salvation of everyone from Hell. Those who accept His Sacrifice for them, who believe in Him and live his
teachings in the Catholic Church go to Heaven (Dominus Iesus 20, CDF,
Notification, Dupuis 2001 etc).For salvation from Hell everyone must enter and
remain in the Catholic Church, Jesus Mystical Body, with Catholic faith and the baptism of water (John
3:5, Mark 16:16, John 6 etc, Ad Gentes 7, Lumen Gentium 14). For outside the
Church,outside Jesus, there is no salvation.Everyone needs the Sacraments in 2023. Without
the Sacraments, Jesus' death and resurrection will be in vain. They will die
outside the Church, the only Church which Jesus founded.
Jesus can give the grace to someone to believe in Him and to be saved, who is not a visible member of the Church. However, in time this person should have entered the Catholic Church. In Heaven he or she will be a Catholic.In Heaven there are only Catholics. They are there with Catholic faith, whch includes the baptism of water. (John 3:5, Mark 16:16,).
Catholics are the new people of God, the chosen people (Nostra Aetate
4). They have the Sacrifice (in the Mass), the Messiah (promised by the Jewish
prophets), the Ark of the Covenant (the tabernacle with the Eucharistic presence),
Tradition (a continuation of the Jewish religion), the Holy Scriptures (a
fulfillment of the Ancient Testament), the Eternal Covenant with the death and
resurrection of Jesus (a fulfillment of the covenants Yahweh made with the
Jews), and the Temple in which His One and Only Sacrifice is repeated in a
bloodless way. (Holy Mass in all the Rites of the Catholic Church).
So proclaim the Good News that only those who believe in Jesus, the Son
of God, the Jewish Promised Messiah, can have eternal life. They need to live
His teachings in the Catholic Church, to avoid mortal sin and have Sanctifying
Grace at the moment of death. This is in a world where most people, as
non-believers, are oriented towards the fires of Hell. They don't know about
Jesus or they refuse to follow him.
On Judgment Day, Jesus will not recognize them. Their soul would be
under the control of Satan, as it was all their life. (Mt.10:32:33) This is the
state of people who live with original sin. They commit mortal sins and in that
state they are not baptized with water.
Without faith which is pleasing to God, and which is there in only in
the Catholic Church; the only Church with the fullness of the means of
salvation, there is no way to Eternal Bliss in Heaven.
This was the faith that made many choose martyrdom for Jesus and his
Church and thus has access to the direct and fast way to Heaven.
We can choose to affirm the truths of our Faith, founded by Jesus, who
is the same, yesterday, today and tomorrow. The Catholic Church has a perennial
Magisterium inspired by the Holy Spirit. Jesus is the same yesterday, today and
tomorrow (Hebrews 13:8). Jesus in the Catholic Church is the narrow gate
(Matt.7:13), the pearl of great price (Mt.13:45-46), the man who found treasure
in the field and sold everything to get it (Matt: 13:44-46).
Jesus identified with his Church, when Saul was persecuting the Early
Catholics, the Early Christians.
"Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?” Jesus asked.He was telling Saul that when he persecuted the Church he was persecuting Him.(Acts.9: 4). Therefore we cannot have faith in Christ (Christology) without belonging to the Catholic Church (ecclesiocentric ecclesiology).The Bible tells us that the Church is the Mystical Body of Jesus.
The Catholic Church is the Mystical Body of Jesus
((Cf. 1 Cor 12:12-31; Col 1:18; 2:18-20; Eph.
1:22-23; 3:19; 4:13).)
The Catholic Church is the Kingdom of Heaven on earth now, it is Jesus present today in His Mystical Body, and it ‘is like a merchant look for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it.’ (John 13:45-46).
The Catholic Church is like the narrow road that leads to life; to paradise
(Matt. 7:13).
Most people go to hell without faith and baptism in the Catholic Church.
Everyone needs water baptism in the Catholic Church for salvation (John 3:5).
He who does not believe will be condemned (Mark 16:16). Enter through the narrow
way (Matthew 7:13) since most people take the wide road, which leads to perdition
(Matt: 7:13).
The Eucharist at Holy Mass is necessary for salvation and so is the Sacrament of Baptism. Those who die for Jesus and the Church as martyrs have a special place in heaven.
Everyone needs the Eucharist for salvation.
Jesus said, "Truly, truly,
I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you
have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life
and I will raise him up on the last day. For my flesh is real food and my blood
is real drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me and I in
him. As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who
eats me will also live because of me. This is the bread that came down from
heaven, not such as your fathers ate and died. Whoever eats this bread will
live forever.”- John 6:53-58.
God offers salvation from sin and condemnation. He does this through His
Son and His act of love in Jesus’
Sacrifice.
For God so
loved the world, as to give his only begotten Son; that whosoever believeth in
him, may not perish, but may have life everlasting.
He that believeth in him is
not judged. But he that doth not believe, is already judged: because he
believeth not in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
And this is the judgment:
because the light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than
the light: for their works were evil.
For every one that doth evil
hateth the light, and cometh not to the light, that his works may not be
reproved. But he that doth truth,
cometh to the light, that his works may be made manifest, because they are done
in God.
The person who does not believe in
Christ and lives His teachings in the Catholic Church will go to Hell and know
the wrath of God.
The Father loveth the Son:
and he hath given all things into his hand.
He that believeth in the Son, hath life
everlasting; but he that believeth not the Son, shall not see life; but the
wrath of God abideth on him.
To know Jesus is to know the truth. Jesus is the Truth.
28 Jesus
therefore cried out in the temple, teaching, and saying: You both know me, and
you know whence I am: and I am not come of myself; but he that sent me, is
true, whom you know not.
29 I know him, because I am from him, and he hath sent me.John : 7: 28-29.
Those who do not believe in Jesus and who do not live His teachings in the Catholic Church will die in their sins and go to Hell. They will lose their inheritance which Jesus won for them through His Sacrifice.
And he said to them. You are from beneath, I am from above. You are of this world, I am not of this world. Therefore I said to you, that you will die in your sins. For if you believe not that I am he, you shall die in your sin.-John 8 : 23-24.
There is salvation in no one else since there is no other name given to mankind to be saved Peter and John proclaimed. This was the beginning of the new Church, the Catholic Church.
Neither is there salvation in any other. For there
is no other name under heaven given to men, whereby we must be saved. -Acts 4:12
So Jesus told us to go into the whole world and proclaim the Gospel.He who believes in His teachings in the Catholic Church, His Mystical Body will be saved from Hell. Those who do not do so will be condemned to Hell.
And
he said to them: Go ye into the whole world, and preach the gospel to every
creature.
He that believeth and is baptized,
shall be saved: but he that believeth not shall be condemned. –John 16:
15-16

CDF agrees with me
Cardinal Luiz Ladaria sj, Prefect, Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Vatican, and Archbishop Augustine di Noia, Secretary, CDF, recognize their past mistakes. They would agree with me on these three pages marked in golden (1, 2, and 3).
It is an issue of common sense. It would be obvious even for those who are not Christian.
1. Outside the Church there is no salvation is the teaching of the Church Councils, Vatican Council II and the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
2. Hypothetical cases of LG 8, LG 14, LG 16, UR 3, NA 2, GS 22 etc are not objective exceptions in 1965-2023 for the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus (EENS).
3. The Church still teaches that there is exclusive salvation in only the Catholic Church. This is taught through the Bible, Vatican Council II, the Catechisms, the Creeds, Councils etc. - Lionel Andrades
1.
OUTSIDE THE CHURCH THERE
IS NO SALVATION
JOHN 3:5, MARK 16:16.
VATICAN COUNCIL II (Ad Gentes 7/ Lumen Gentes 14).
CATECHISM OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH 846
CATECHISM OF TRENT, CATECHISM OF POPE PIUS X
FOURTH LATERAN COUNCIL (1215), COUNCIL OF FLORENCE (1442).
THE BAPTISM OF DESIRE (BOD), BAPTISM OF BLOOD(BOB) AND BEING SAVED IN INVINCIBLE IGNORANCE (I.I) ARE ALWAYS HYPOTHETICAL AND PHYSICALLY INVISIBLE CASES. SO THEY DO NOT CONTRADICT THE DOGMA EXTRA ECCLESIAM NULLA SALUS (EENS).THE BOD, BOB AND I.I ARE NOT KNOWN PEOPLE IN PERSONAL CASES. THERE ARE NO PHYSICALLY VISIBLE CASES OF BEING SAVED IN INVINCIBLE IGNORANCE.SO THEY ARE NOT OBJECTIVE EXCEPTIONS FOR THE DOGMA EENS IN 1965-2023.AD GENTES 7 AND LUMEN GENTIUM 14 SUPPORT THE DOGMA EENS .LG 8,14, 16, UR 3, NA 2, GS 22 ETC ARE NOT PRACTICAL EXCEPTIONS FOR AG 7/ LG 14 AND THE DOGMA EENS. THE COUNCIL HAS THE HERMENEUTIC OF CONTINUITY WITH THE SYLLABUS OF ERRORS, THE ATHANASIUS CREED AND THE CATECHISM OF POPE PIUS X ( 24Q,27Q).
2. INVISIBLE CASES
THESE ARE REFERENCES TO INVISIBE CASES IN 2023. THEY ARE NOT VISIBLE EXAMPLES OF SALVATION OUTSIDE THE CHURCH. THEY ARE NOT OBJECTIVE EXCEPTIONS FOR THE DOGMA EXTRA ECCLESIAM NULLA SALUS, THE ATHANASIUS CREED AND THE SYLLABUS OF ERRORS OF POPE PIUS IX.
This Church constituted and organized in the world as a society, subsists in the Catholic Church, which is governed by the successor of Peter and by the Bishops in communion with him,(13*) although many elements of sanctification and of truth are found outside of its visible structure. These elements, as gifts belonging to the Church of Christ, are forces impelling toward catholic unity.- Lumen Gentium 8, Vatican Council II
Catechumens who, moved by the Holy Spirit, seek with explicit intention to be incorporated into the Church are by that very intention joined with her. With love and solicitude Mother Church already embraces them as her own. - Lumen Gentium 14, Vatican Council II
But the plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator… Those also can attain to salvation who through no fault of their own do not know the Gospel of Christ or His Church, yet sincerely seek God and moved by grace strive by their deeds to do His will as it is known to them through the dictates of conscience.- Lumen Gentium 16, Vatican Council II.
Moreover, some and even very many of the significant elements and endowments which together go to build up and give life to the Church itself, can exist outside the visible boundaries of the Catholic Church: the written word of God; the life of grace; faith…
… These liturgical actions must be regarded as capable of giving access to the community of salvation. – Unitatis Redintigratio 3 Vatican Council II
The Catholic Church rejects nothing that is true and holy in these religions. She regards with sincere reverence those ways of conduct and of life, those precepts and teachings which, though differing in many aspects from the ones she holds and sets forth, nonetheless often reflect a ray of that Truth which enlightens all men. – Nostra Aetate 2, Vatican Council II.
All this holds true not only for Christians, but for all men of good will in whose hearts grace works in an unseen way. For, since Christ died for all men, and since the ultimate vocation of man is in fact one, and divine, we ought to believe that the Holy Spirit in a manner known only to God offers to every man the possibility of being associated with this paschal mystery.- Gaudium et Specs 22, Vatican Council II
3. EXCLUSIVE SALVATION IN THE CATHOLIC CHURCH TODAY
14. This Sacred Council wishes to turn its attention firstly to the Catholic faithful. Basing itself upon Sacred Scripture and Tradition, it teaches that the Church, now sojourning on earth as an exile, is necessary for salvation. Christ, present to us in His Body, which is the Church, is the one Mediator and the unique way of salvation. In explicit terms He Himself affirmed the necessity of faith and baptism124 and thereby affirmed also the necessity of the Church, for through baptism as through a door men enter the Church…- Lumen Gentium 14, Vatican Council II
Therefore, all must be converted to Him, made known by the Church's preaching, and all must be incorporated into Him by baptism and into the Church which is His body. For Christ Himself "by stressing in express language the necessity of faith and baptism (cf. Mark 16:16; John 3:5), at the same time confirmed the necessity of the Church, into which men enter by baptism, as by a door.-Ad Gentes 7
CATECHISM OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH 845-846
845 To reunite all his children, scattered and led astray by sin, the Father willed to call the whole of humanity together into his Son's Church. The Church is the place where humanity must rediscover its unity and salvation. The Church is "the world reconciled." She is that bark which "in the full sail of the Lord's cross, by the breath of the Holy Spirit, navigates safely in this world." According to another image dear to the Church Fathers, she is prefigured by Noah's ark, which alone saves from the flood.- Catechism of the Catholic Church
846 …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…
Fourth Lateran Council (1215): "There is but one universal Church of the faithful, outside which no one at all is saved."
