Ways of Salvation and the Way of Salvation

Abstract: Every religion offers salvation or liberation. Since
the time of Cyprian of Carthage, the Catholic Church held
the  exclusive Christian claim that there is no salvation
outside the Church (Extra Ecclesiam nulla salus). However,
at the Vatican II there was a re-visioning and a renewed
understanding of salvation that that went beyond absolute
exclusivism to a recognition of the role of other religions in
the economy of salvation. Based on the teachings of Vatican
II, the author shows that in Jesus Christ, the incarnation
of God’s Communion within the Trinity as well as God’s
communion with humans and their world all authentic 
ways of salvation find their uniqueness and legitimate 
space distinct but not separate from Christ, the Way!
Extra communionis nulla salus – Outside Communion no
salvation.
