John 6:53-57 “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in you... The Lord thinks so. So do I.
The Catholic Church has made it very clear that non-Catholics can be saved. How is this possible, without taking the Eucharist?

It sounds like a question of what it really means to eat his flesh and drink his blood.

Christ gave the keys to Peter, giving Him the power to bind and to loosen. But the Church believe God’s mercy is greater than we know (thankfully). It’s called ‘baptism of desire’. Think of the good thief on the cross, He was saved without it. The Church also believes that God takes care of those who have never heard of Him. Like some guy living in Outer Mongolia. Ulimately, God is still the judge, only God knows what is in men’s hearts.
