St. Anthony the Great

The Coptic Church

“Whatever and whatsoever kind of man he is, he is not a Christian who is not in Christ’s Church. And, ‘since he cannot have God for his Father who does not have the Church for his mother’, there is no salvation outside of the Church.” (St. Cyprian of Carthage)
