Which statement best captures the Paschal Mystery in relation to salvation?

It concerns a historical event with no present relevance.

A mystery that cannot be known.

The pattern of salvation through Jesus' death and resurrection that continues to impact believers.

The Paschal Mystery is the saving work of Jesus—His suffering, death, and resurrection—made present and effective for believers today. It isn’t just a past event; through this mystery, Jesus defeats sin and death and continues to share new life with every Christian. The pattern of dying to sin and rising to new life shapes Christian living, and believers participate in this reality through the life of the Church, especially in the sacraments like Baptism and the Eucharist. Because of this ongoing, life-giving impact, the best description is that salvation unfolds through Jesus’ death and resurrection and continues to affect believers now.

A symbolic act only tied to the early Church.
