Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Groundwork of Christian Perfection The favour with which Catholic Doctrines Explained and Proved was received has encouraged the author to publish the present little work in the hope that it may do good. It is not written for any special class of persons. On this account, anything which would lead to the idea that it is a book exclusively for religious, is sedulously avoided. The principles laid down in it are only those that every good Christian, whether in religion or in the world, ought to know and to live up to. There are numbers of persons in the world who practise Perfection without any formal aim at it. It is for these especially that we write; as it appears to us that a little direction, and study of the grounds of Perfection, would be a wonderful help to them. Man´s object in life is shown to consist in Charity - in the love of God and the love of our neighbour. We have thought it very important to keep this point before the minds of our readers, because otherwise their devotions may be misdirected. We next deal with the various means of attaining to this end. The writer has made every effort to put things as briefly and as plainly as possible so that his teaching may be within the reach of the ordinary mind. Pie has avoided all digressions and has set before his readers their main business in life, telling them what they must do, rather than what they must not do.
