====Catechism====
The [[Catechism of the Catholic Church]] devotes a section to describing the church with this phrase,<ref>[https://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG0015/__P28.HTM Catechism of the Catholic Church, 781-786781–786]</ref> and indicates the characteristics of the people of God "that distinguish it from all other religious, ethnic, political, or cultural groups found in history", so that it does not belong to any one of these groups. Membership in the people of God, it says, comes not by physical birth but by [[Faith in Christianity|faith in Christ]] and [[baptism]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Catechism of the Catholic Church |url=https://www.catholicculture.org/culture/library/catechism/index.cfm?recnum=2991 |access-date=2023-05-03 |website=www.catholicculture.org}}</ref>
