Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from In Paradise; Or the State of the Faithful Dead: A Study From Scripture on Death and After-Death In the exercise of that sweetest office of the Christian priesthood, the ministry of sympathy and consolation to the suffering, there are found in every parish these classes: (1) Many Christian people who, in spite of the depth of their trust and the sincerity of their penitence, do yet tremble at the great mystery of death; (2) Others who, for themselves and for their loved ones gone before, have not yet caught the clear horoscope of that future life, as drawn in the teaching of Christ and in the testimony of the Church. To give light upon this sweet and sacred subject, there are many large and learned volumes of our best scholars, but these are too erudite to meet the simple needs of everyday parochial life. It would seem that a little book which aims, in the simplest way, to gather up the Church´s teaching upon Death, Paradise, the Resurrection and Heaven, might find some useful, though humble, place. Upon such subjects it is evident that there cannot be, and should not be, any attempt at originality. Originality here would be irreverence, if not blasphemy.
