Description
- Exclusive translation with theological supervision.
If you are ashamed to make a good confession, if you do not consider that confession is necessary for you, if you think that God forgives our sins outside the Sacrament of Confession, or if you distrust that even the most serious sins can be forgiven through this channel... I can tell you that St. Alphonsus Liguori wrote this text for you.
The Sacrament of Penance, also called the Sacrament of Pardon, forgives everything, but for this we need that our poor confessions are well made, that they are made with sincerity, with desires of sincere conversion, and that we drive away our Enemy, the Devil, who will put all his meat on the grill to give us back the shame that he took from us to instigate us to break the Commandments of God when repentant we go to Confession.
This little work has had over the years a great diffusion in South America as well as in Spain, doing a great good in many Christian believers, although it has barely been known in the United States, that is why we also publish an English edition (excuse its imperfections as it is not our mother language), the Spanish edition is surely more correct.
No doubt the oral transmission of this work in preaching and catechesis has been almost dictated (including the narration of its examples), so many readers will feel the joy of knowing the source of what they learned about this Sacrament in their childhood, will be grateful for it, and will again spread it.
We have added, for the good it will do, an examination of conscience at the end of the book, which, to be more complete, would have to be longer, though it is not so short to be of no help.
We ask St. Alphonsus Liguori to pray for us and to make us firm defenders and apostles of Divine Mercy.
