Paragraph 3. THE CHURCH IS ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC, AND APOSTOLIC
825
“The Church on earth is endowed already with a sanctity that is real
though imperfect.”295 In her members perfect holiness is something
yet to be acquired: “Strengthened by so many and such great means of
salvation, all the faithful, whatever their condition or state – though each in
his own way – are called by the Lord to that perfection of sanctity by which
the Father himself is perfect.”296
