AC 10765 - Living and Acknowledging One God

AC 10765

Those who are outside the Church,
and yet acknowledge one God,
and live according to their religion
in a kind of charity toward the neighbor,
are in communion with those who are of the Church,
because no one is condemned
who believes in God, and lives well.
From this it is evident
that the Lord's Church is everywhere in the whole world,
although specifically
it is where the Lord is acknowledged,
and where the Word is.
