'THE BLESSED COMPANY...'

From Donald Schell's essay titled 'The Blessed Company of All Faithful People', Part II at the Daily Episcopalian:

Just what do Episcopalians mean by “salvation?” A lot of different things, of course. I think salvation has little to do with “where we end up” and everything to do with God’s work reconciling us to each other and to God, moving closer to our embrace of one another in God now and forever.

Amen! Read the rest of Schell's essay, which is excellent, along with the commentary, which is quite good.
