Ep 135 - Removing the Stain on Your Soul, What's Up with Indulgences Anyways?

An episode too good we had to do it twice! In the last episode, Fr. Dom and James spoke on indulgences and we mentioned Episode 25. Well, we decided to republish it for you all so you can enjoy it yet again.

Learn all you can regarding indulgences and purgatory, two of the most controversial topics in the Catholic Church.

*Takeaways*

🍿 Indulgences are a remission of temporal punishment due to forgiven sins.

🍿 Purgatory serves as a purification process for souls before entering heaven.

🍿 Every action has eternal consequences, affecting both ourselves and others.

🍿 Indulgences should not be viewed as a license to sin.

🍿 The Church offers indulgences as a means to limit time in purgatory.

🍿 Praying for the dead is a tradition rooted in early Church teachings.

🍿 Purgatory is not a final chance to turn to God; it is for those already assured of salvation.

🍿 Understanding sin and its consequences is crucial for spiritual growth.

🍿 The sacrament of reconciliation is vital for maintaining a state of grace.

Death is viewed as a gift, leading to eternal life with God.
