All who have been justified by faith in baptism are
incorporated into Christ. They are rightly called Christians. With good reason
they are accepted as brothers and sisters by the children of the Catholic
Church. (Ecumenism § 3)
Many of the most
significant elements and gifts which together go to build up and give life to
the Church itself, can exist outside the Catholic Church.
(Ecumenism § 3)
Christ summons the Church, as she
walks her pilgrim way, to continual reformation, a reformation of which she
always has need. (Ecumenism § 5) |
