Summary This study is an examination of how official documents of the Roman Catholic Church have taught the universal salvific will of God. Through the study of papal and magisterial documents, this study seeks to show how official Church teaching has changed its approach to the salvation of members of other religious traditions, moving away from a position of exclusivity and developing an inclusive theology to account for the salvation of members of other religions
