Does that make B16 and JPII heretics, then?
here’s another thought for you:
Outside of the Church there is no sanctifying grace:
Catechism of the Council of Trent, Tan Books, p. 243: For the Eucharist is the end of all the Sacraments, and the symbol of unity and brotherhood in the Church, [u][b]outside of which none can attain grace[/b][/u].
Here the Catechism teaches that outside the Church none can attain grace. This is not complete. Predisposing or prevenient graces are given to those outside the Church[/u] so that they can turn to God, change their lives and enter the Church. Without these graces no one would ever convert. Pope Clement XI in the dogmatic constitution Unigenitus (Sept. 8, 1713) condemned the proposition that, Outside the Church, no grace is granted. The Catechism more accurately intended to teach that outside the Church no sinner can attain sanctifying grace, which is true, since outside the Catholic Church there is no remission of sins (Pope Boniface VIII, Unam Sanctam, 1302, ex cathedra).
Pope Boniface VIII, Unam Sanctam, Nov. 18, 1302, ex cathedra: With Faith urging us we are forced to believe and to hold the one, holy, Catholic Church and that, apostolic, and we firmly believe and simply confess this Church [b]outside of which there is no salvation NOR REMISSION OF SIN[/b]
