Summary/Abstract: Saving work of Jesus Christ was committed to the "fullness of time" in a certain moment of history through the incarnation, teaching, life, sacrifice and resurrection from the dead. But the appropriation of salvation is normal and safe in the Church and through the Church. The church is our life in Christ and therefore our salvation and sanctification body. The Ecclesiology is closely related to soteriology and Christology, since the Church is the reality session, the focus and specifies all teaching and Christian life. Sacramental priesthood is exercised really only in the Church and for the Church, and therefore ordinations are done always only in the Church in the Holy Shrine around the Holy Table.
