As an active Episcopalian, it doesn't surprise me...the church is founded upon tradition and reason and many members believed that those who have not known Jesus can still be saved.

If I were an active Episcopalian, I'd be running for the hills to find a new denomination.

Yes, but the only name by which these people can be saved is 'Jesus.'

How do Episcopalians reconcile that belief with what the Bible says about it:

Jesus said: "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by me." (John 14:6)

That's what we were always taught. That's why I am not understanding this.
