they may possessess some truth but not all Jesus is the truth and the truth is in His word
Yes. Although other religions have elements of truth, the Catholic Church is the only religion that possesses the complete truth.
It means that the 4 marks of the Church as spelled out in the Nicene Creed - One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic - are found only in the Catholic Church. Other sects may have one, two or three of these marks but only the Catholic Church possesses all four.
The Catholic Church believes that the Russian Orthodox Church is a legitimate Church because it has seven valid sacraments. However, the Catholic Church believes that the Catholic Church alone has the fullness of truth.
Yes
A heretic.
Roman Catholic AnswerI don't think any Catholic thinks he has the fullness of truth and grace. The fullness of Truth and Grace is Our Blessed Lord. If anything one might say that he hopes that Truth and Grace has him, not the other way around. The reason that they believe they have access to the fullness of truth and grace is that Our Blessed Lord said plainly, when He established His Church, that He would be with It until the end of the world. We belong to His Church, which is His Body and His Bride, and we receive Him in Holy Communion every time that we receive Holy Communion at Mass worthily. If we cooperate with those graces, then He possesses us and we are on our way to possessing the fullness of Him in heaven.
The Catholic Church still considers heresy to be an adherence to a religious opinion contrary to Church dogma. It is denial of revealed truth by a baptized member of the Roman Catholic Church. An example of heresy would be to proclaim that Christ is not God.
