Now wait a minute here. She seems to be saying that salvation is a collective thing. She will not be saved as an individual, but as a member of the church. She can therefore do whatever she wants and, as long as she’s a member of the church, she’ll be alright because Christ saves the church. Isn’t this concept a major feature of Roman Catholic theology?

I am virtually certain that the answer to your question is NO! But I will ping some better able to answer this point.

If you mean the Catholic Church, the answer is no.
