This is analysis because it first lists the major parts of the chapter and then comes to conclusions about the information given. The outline writes down the main ideas of the sections. I follow that up with the big ideas of individual subsections. The conclusive paragraph restates anf gives reasons and shows understanding of the material.
"...The Church is Christ's instrument...God desires that 'the whole human race become one people of God, form one Body of Christ, and be built up into one temple of the Holy Spirit.'"(CCC 776)
Jesus =God's choses Mediator between God and humans in their fallen human nature
Jesus' Mission = forgiving sins and sanctifying individuals
Jesus founded his Bride the Church to carry on his work through his disciples
The Church = Sacrament of Salvation
The Church is not "a way" to salvation
The Church is "the way" to salvation
Only through the Church can person receive salvation
Extra Ecclesiam Nulla Salus--? Outside the Church there is no Salvation
Coined by St. Cyprian, Bishop of Charthage
Pope Blessed Pius IX says that while the Church is the only way to salvation, people unaware of the Church's salvation are not condemned to Hell
The grace to live according to natural law is a grace imparted by the Church
"All men are bound to seek the thruth, especially in what concerns God and his Church, and to embrace the truth they come to know and to hold fast to it"
The Church is the only way to salvation. That in itself has been told to us by Jesus and his countless saints and holy people. Jesus showed the way to salvation through himself. So that means that all born after 33 AD are condemned to Hell, right? Wrong. Jesus Christ founded the Church, his bride, to carry on his work in the world. As the Church is a Pilgrim Church, on a journey and in a constant struggle for salvation, it also carries on Jesus' work of salvation. But this is probably a pretty phony salvation, right? Wrong, since Jesus founded the Church, his grace and infallibility is imparted to the Church so they can speak infallibly about religious topics and doctrine. The Church can lead people to salvation just as effectively as Jesus, and in more places too. GofGisMFA
