No Salvation Outside The Catholic Church

Peter and Paul Ministries

“the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of truth.” (1 Tim 3:15)
"I have other sheep that do not belong to this fold. These also I must lead,
and they will hear my voice, and there will be one flock, one shepherd." (John 10:16)

Who Will Be Saved?

"Enter by the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is easy,
that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is
narrow and the way is hard, that leads to life, and those who find it are few." (Matt 7:13 -14)

Those who die in perfect communion with Christ through the sanctifying grace of His sacraments will be given the bliss of seeing God in the face, the beatific vision. People that pass on in a state of grace, but still have temporal punishment to atone for will enter heaven only after they have been cleansed in the fires of purgatory. The people who sincerely searched for God and tried to lived a life in accordance to His’ law written upon their hearts but through no fault of their own never heard the Gospel or had the opportunity to formally enter the Church may be lead into communion with the sole ark of salvation, the Roman Catholic Church, by the miraculous intervention of God. "He that has my commandments and observers them is the one who loves me. And whoever loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and will manifest myself to him."(John 14:21) All Catholics must never forget that it would be a miracle for any invincible ignorant soul to be saved, because it is impossible to keep the whole moral law without Christ’s grace bestowed through His sacraments."For all have sinned, and do need the glory of God." (Romann 3:23) Therefore the conversion of the world to Jesus and His Church is paramount so all will have a true hope of salvation. Lastly, those who live an unrepentant life of sin and debauchery and the prideful who choose by their own freewill to reject either Christ or the Mystical Body of Christ, the Holy Roman Catholic Church, will not like where they end up."I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." (John 14:6) and "If anyone remains not in me, he shall be cast forth as a branch, and shall wither, and they shall gather him up, and cast him into the fire, and burned." (John 15: 6)

"Do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom
of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers,
nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards,
nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God." (1 Cor. 6:9-10)
