1257 The Lord himself affirms that Baptism is necessary for salvation. He also commands his disciples to proclaim the Gospel to all nations and to baptize them. Baptism is necessary for salvation for those to whom the Gospel has been proclaimed and who have had the possibility of asking for this sacrament. The Church does not know of any means other than Baptism that assures entry into eternal beatitude; this is why she takes care not to neglect the mission she has received from the Lord to see that all who can be baptized are "reborn of water and the Spirit." God has bound salvation to the sacrament of Baptism, but he himself is not bound by his sacraments.-Catechism of the Catholic Church (emphasis added)
for those to whom the Gospel has been proclaimed and who have had the possibility of asking for this sacrament.
Lionel:
The above statment is hypothetical. These cases are not known to us on earth.So they cannot be relevant to all needing the baptism of water for salvatiion.
but he himself is not bound by his sacraments
Lionel:
Yes he is bound to the Sacraments as 1257 says that baptism is necessry for all.This is taught by the Holy Spirit.
CCC 1257 is double talk, irrational and non traditional.It contradicts the teaching of the Holy Spirit over the centuries.

Where does the Catholic Church teach that the baptism of Blood and of Desire are physically visible and known to us in the present times (2014) ?

Why did the Holy Office 1949 mention the baptism of desire as an exception to the dogma? This is a factual mistake.

Only at the physical level can there be exceptions to extra ecclesiam nulla salus.Hypothetical, theoretical cases cannot be defacto exceptions
