Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A History of Auricular Confession and Indulgences, Vol. 2: In the Latin Church While, in the development of sacerdotalism, the Church has magnified the functions of the priest as the delegate of God, it has not wholly relieved the sinner of responsibility. Powerful as may be the formula Ego te absolvo when uttered in the sacrament, it would be a mistake to assume that it works its beneficent end without conditions and without the cooperation of the beneficiary. Even when the culpa has been removed. Dr. Amort tells us that the remission of the poena is only proportionate to the merits and desert of the penitent. It therefore remains for us to see what have been the teaching and the practice of the Church with regard to the essentials requisite on the part of the penitent to render the sacrament effective. The proper comprehension of this is of vital importance, not only to the sinner but to the confessor, for the latter commits a mortal sin each time that he wrongly refuses absolution to the deserving or grants it to the unfit, and many conscientious priests, we are told, refuse service in the confessional through fear for their own souls. That such fear should exist is natural, for the correctness of the confessors decision must depend on many factors which he can by no possibility estimate with accuracy, and we shall see how intricate are the problems involved, and how discordant, in many cases, are the opinions of the doctors.
