Best Answer

Bishops are responsible for leading their flock to heaven. A bishop rules over a diocese, and all the priests in that diocese promises obedience to their bishop and his successors. The Bishop, to a certain extent is responsible for the salvation of all those who live in his diocese, even those who are not Catholics.
