From Jesus - Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me. (John 14:6)

From the Catechism - “Outside the Church there is no salvation”


Hmmm... Which should I choose...?

One thing Catholics should consider. Catholicism is not necessarily Jesus’ Church. Perhaps it's the remnants of poor, erroneous teachings passed down from a group of believers who fell away and perverted the gospel.

I will hedge my bet and follow Jesus.

I don't want to play guessing games. You believe that they're damned, correct?

But to be fair, I'll ask you again.

Do you agree with the following statement, based upon your understanding of Scripture?

Those who, through no fault of their own, do not know the Gospel of Christ or his Church, but who nevertheless seek God with a sincere heart, and, moved by grace, try in their actions to do his will as they know it through the dictates of their conscience - they WILL NOT achieve eternal salvation.
Take all the time that you need. And consider your position carefully. The Church's position is clear. What is yours?
