CATHOLIC CHURCH IS THE SHIP Of SALVATION!



FOUNDED BY OUR LORD HIMSELF THROUGH ST PETER OUR FIRST POPE AND VICAR THE CHURCH IS THE ONLY CHURCH OF CHRIST, THE BRIDE, AND WILL REMAIN AS SUCH TILL OUR LORD RETURNETH. WHEREST HIS FAITH IS THERE TO ALSO IS HIS CHURCH.

And I say to thee: That thou art Peter(first Catholic Pope of Christs only Catholic/Universal Church); and upon this rock I will build my church(Roman Catholic), and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven(salvation of Christ comes only thru the Church). And whatsoever thou shalt bind upon earth(only Popes and the Church make dogmas and say what is truth), it shall be bound also in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose upon earth(the Church alone* interprets scripture ), it shall be loosed also in heaven." Matthew 16 verse 18-19

"The Holy Roman Church 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 Church before the end of their lives..."
(Pope Eugene IV, Council of Florence, Cantate Domino, 1441)


The term Catholic Church used in history/Tradition verifying the Catholic Church is Christ’s:

St. Ignatius of Antioch (100 A.D):
The Epistle of Ignatius to the Smyrnaeans
See that you all follow the bishop, even as Jesus Christ does the Father, and the presbytery as you would the apostles; and reverence the deacons, as being the institution of God. Let no man do anything connected with the Church without the bishop. Let that be deemed a proper Eucharist, which is [administered] either by the bishop, or by one to whom he has entrusted it. Wherever the bishop shall appear, there let the multitude [of the people] also be; even as, wherever Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Church.

Keep praying for conversions to the true traditional Catholic Faith!

Ave Maria!
