One God, one Church, one Faith
"Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God." -John 3:5
"He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned." -Mark 16:16
"He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters." -Luke 11:23
"If you love me, keep my commandments." -John 14:15
"For all the gods of the Gentiles are devils: but the Lord made the heavens" -Psalm 95:5
"Whosoever will be saved, before all things it is necessary that he hold the Catholic faith; which faith except every one do keep whole and undefiled, without doubt he shall perish everlastingly." -Athanasian Creed
"There is indeed one universal church of the faithful, outside of which nobody at all is saved" - Fourth Lateran Council
"If anyone denies the one true God, creator and lord of things visible and invisible: let him be anathema." - First Vatican Council
"It firmly believes, professes and preaches that all those who are outside the Catholic Church, not only pagans but also Jews or heretics and schismatics, cannot share in eternal life and will go into the everlasting fire which was prepared for the devil and his angels, unless they are joined to the Catholic Church before the end of their lives...and that nobody can be saved,no matter how much he has given away in alms and even if he has shed his blood in the name of Christ, unless he has persevered in the bosom and unity of the Catholic Church." -Council of Florence
"It must be held by faith that outside the Apostolic Roman Church, no one can be saved; that this is the only ark of salvation; that he who shall not have entered therein will perish in the flood. -Pope Pius IX
"It is a sin to believe that there is salvation outside the Catholic Church!" -Pope Pius IX
"Every man is free to embrace and profess that religion which, guided by the light of reason, he shall consider true." condemned as an error - Pope Pius IX, Syllabus of Errors
"Man may, in the observance of any religion whatever, find the way of eternal salvation, and arrive at eternal salvation." condemned as an error - Syllabus of Errors
"In the present day it is no longer expedient that the Catholic religion should be held as the only religion of the State, to the exclusion of all other forms of worship." condemned as an error -Syllabus of Errors
"The Church ought to be separated from the State, and the State from the Church." condemned as an error -Syllabus of Errors
"That the State must be separated from the Church is a thesis absolutely false, a most pernicious error." - Pope St. Pius X, Vehementor Nos
"This perverse opinion is spread on all sides by the fraud of the wicked who claim that it is possible to obtain the eternal salvation of the soul by the profession of any kind of religion, as long as morality is maintained." -Pope Gregory XVI, Mirari Vos
"Also perverse is the shocking theory that it makes no difference to which religion one belongs, a theory which is greatly at variance even with reason. By means of this theory, those crafty men remove all distinction between virtue and vice, truth and error, honorable and vile action. They pretend that men can gain eternal salvation by the practice of any religion, as if there could ever be any sharing between justice and iniquity,any collaboration between light and darkness, or any agreement between Christ and Belial." -Pope Pius IX, Qui Pluribus
"Furthermore, we declare, we proclaim, we define that it is absolutely necessary for salvation that every human creature be subject to the Roman Pontiff." -Pope Boniface VIII, Unam Sanctam
"as long as individuals and states refused to submit to the rule of our Savior, there would be no really hopeful prospect of a lasting peace among nations." -Pope Pius XI, Quas Primas
"Thus the man, so long as he lives on the body of the Church, he is a Christian; separated from her, he becomes a heretic" - Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum
"To be Christian one must be Roman. One must recognize the oneness of Christ's Church that is governed by one successor of the Prince of the Apostles who is the Bishop of Rome, Christ's Vicar on earth." -Pope Pius XII
"it is clear why this Apostolic See has never allowed its subjects to take part in the assemblies of non-Catholics; for the union of Christians can only be promoted by promoting the return to the one true Church of Christ of those who are separated from it" -Pope Pius XI, Mortalium Animos
"Such is the nature of the Catholic faith that it does not admit of more or less, but must be held as a whole, or as a whole rejected: This is the Catholic faith, which unless a man believe faithfully and firmly, he cannot be saved." -Pope Benedict XV
"He who has turned his back on the Church of Christ shall not come to the rewards of Christ; he is an alien, a worldling, an enemy. You cannot have God for your Father if you have not the Church for your mother." -Saint Cyprian
"justice therefore forbids, and reason itself forbids, the State to be godless; or to adopt a line of action which would end in godlessness - namely, to treat the various religions(as they call them) alike, and to bestow on them promiscuously equal rights and privileges." -Pope Leo XIII, Libertas Praestantissimum
"A true worshipper is one whose mind has not been defiled with any false belief." -Pope St. Leo the Great
