This misunderstanding of the nature of the visible church (which always has contained both “wheat and tares”) and the invisible church (the body of Christ which is only made up of born again believers) would lead to the concept of a visible Holy Catholic Church, outside of which there is no salvation.
Ang maling pagkakaunawang ito sa kalikasan ng nakikitang iglesya (na laging kinabibilangan ng mga damo at trigo o ng mga ligtas at hindi tunay na ligtas) at ng hindi nakikitang iglesya (na laging kinabibilangan ng mga tunay na ligtas o tunay na mananampalataya) ay naging konsepto na isang nakikita at tinawag na banal na Katolikong Simbahan na sa labas nito ay walang kaligtasan.
