Please do read the Catechism -- highlighted in chapter 846 that states that How are we to understand this affirmation, often repeated by the Church Fathers? Reformulated positively, it means that all salvation comes from Christ the Head through the Church which is his Body" (CCC 846).We would say it this way
" all salvation comes from the propitiation of Christ for our sins ...Christ is the Head of the church.. the body of believers.. the bride of Christ , the saved..
See we are not saved by a church, any church . The church is the assembly of the saved

As I said in my post, and I'll repeat again for your edification, the Catechism -- highlighted in chapter 846 that states that How are we to understand this affirmation, often repeated by the Church Fathers? Reformulated positively, it means that all salvation comes from Christ the Head through the Church which is his Body" (CCC 846).
The Church teaches that Christ's sacrifice is what saved us -- his sacrifice was super-sufficient for our salvation
We are saved by Christ's salvic action on the Cross, Christ is the Head of the church.. the body of believers.. the bride of Christ , the saved..
