2nd Way
- 12 Neither is there salvation in any other:
- for there is none other name under heaven given among men,
- whereby we must be saved.
Only one way to be saved
Pope Pius XI ======== {2nd Way}
“Those who are hampered by invincible ignorance about our holy religion, (ignorance is no excuse)
and live honorably and uprightly, keeping the natural law with its commands (not by works)
being ready to obey God, {can attain eternal life} (2nd way)
with the help of the power of divine light and grace.
God clearly sees, searches out and knows the minds, hearts, thoughts and dispositions of everyone;
in his great goodness and mercy he will {on no account permit a man to be punished} with eternal torments,
who is not guilty of voluntary sin.” (Pope Pius XI).
Catholic ========== WRONG
All have sinned
Only one way to be saved
Saved by grace through faith
not of works
Everyone will not have a chance to be saved.
How shall they believe in him
of whom they have not heard?
- 9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,
- and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead,
- thou shalt be saved.
- 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness;
- and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."
- 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
- 14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed?
- and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard?
- and how shall they hear without a preacher?
- 15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent?"
There is only one way to be saved.
That is by the blood of Jesus.
Jesus is the only way of salvation.
