Yet we know that none of us is really perfect and that few human beings die in a state of soul with all their past sins atoned for during life. Most people whose souls are saved, therefore, end up detained for a time in Purgatory. Some reports say that the passage of \"time\" (though they have passed out of time, in a fashion) in these souls' perception is slowed to a hundredth or less of what we on earth experience. Thus, the agony and languishing of the Poor Souls often seems almost interminable.</p>\n<p><strong><em>Stories about Purgatory and What They Reveal: 30 Days for the Holy Souls</em></strong> will impress upon your heart a healthy and holy respect for the sufferings endured by the Holy Souls, such that you will ever after remember them in your prayers and Masses. It will teach you also to strive to rectify your own life, that you may avoid Purgatory altogether&mdash;or at the very worst, spend very little \"time\" there before being united to God in Heaven. Belief in Purgatory is truly Catholic and consoling; it is a reality whose truth has been buttressed by many famous true stories, recorded here, of the sufferings undergone by the Poor Souls, plus their gratitude toward and wonderful aid for those who help them.</p>\n</div>","tags":[],"warranty":"","price":{"without_tax":{"formatted":"$16.95","value":16.95,"currency":"USD"},"tax_label":"Tax"},"height":"8.50","detail_messages":"","availability":"","page_title":"Stories About Purgatory and What They Reveal: 30 Days for the Holy Souls","cart_url":"https://tanbooks.com/cart.php","max_purchase_quantity":0,"mpn":null,"upc":"9780895557995","options":[{"id":5135,"type":"Configurable_PickList_Set","display_name":"Format","required":true,"state":"variant_option","partial":"set-rectangle","condition":true,"values":[{"id":10117,"label":"Paperbound","selected":true,"data":"Paperbound"},{"id":10118,"label":"eBook","selected":false,"data":"eBook"},{"id":10119,"label":"MP3 Audio Download","selected":false,"data":"MP3 Audio Download"}]}],"related_products":[{"id":1378,"sku":"TE3334","name":"Stories About Purgatory and What They Reveal (eBook)","url":"https://tanbooks.com/products/books/stories-about-purgatory-and-what-they-reveal-ebook/","availability":"","rating":0,"brand":null,"category":["Books","Books/General","Books/General/eBooks & Audiobooks"],"summary":"Originally arranged as 30 Days for the Holy Souls, this book was written to engrave on the minds and hearts of its readers an indelible understanding of Purgatory: first, that it exists;

The book aims to deepen the reader&#039;s understanding of Catholic teaching on Purgatory and the importance of intercessory prayer for the deceased. Each day features a story illustrating the suffering of souls in Purgatory and emphasizes the role of prayers, indulgences, sacrifices, and Masses in helping these souls reach Heaven. It includes real-life accounts and mystical experiences highlighting the power of intercession for the souls in Purgatory. It underscores the belief that those who are purified through suffering in Purgatory are destined for Heaven but require the prayers and sacrifices of the faithful to shorten their time of purification. \r\n\r\nTakeaways:\r\n1.\tThe Power of Prayer and the Mass: The book highlights how offering prayers or indulgences, especially the Mass, can significantly aid their journey toward Heaven. \r\n2.\tThe Reality of Purgatory: The book illustrates the real spiritual significance of Purgatory through various stories, showing that it is a necessary purification before reaching eternal life with God. This book will deepen your understanding of the Church&#039;s Suffering.\r\n3.\tLiving a Life of Holiness: By recounting the sufferings of souls in Purgatory, the book emphasizes the importance of striving for holiness and avoiding sin during earthly life to reduce or avoid the time spent in Purgatory.\r\n4.\tCatholic Tradition: The stories reflect deep-rooted Catholic traditions about the afterlife, emphasizing a continued connection between the living (The Church Militant) and the souls in Purgatory (The Church Suffering) through prayer, penance, and indulgences.\r\n5.\tThe book&#039;s Appendices: They contain prayers and a novena as a guide for offering prayers for the holy souls. \r\nIn conclusion, Stories About Purgatory and What They Reveal: 30 Days for the Holy Souls offers a profound and thought-provoking reflection on the often-overlooked Catholic teaching of purgatory. Its clear, accessible language and structured 30-day format make it an ideal resource for personal reflection or group study during the month of November. These lessons encourage more profound reflection on one&#039;s spiritual journey, especially the Last four things: Death, Judgment, Heaven, and Hell. This book is a compassionate guide to the mystery of the Church Suffering and the power of intercessory prayer by us, the Church Militant.\r\n\r\n","date":"Nov 17th 2024"},{"name":"Geri ","rating":"5","title":"Purgatory ","text":"What a great way to pray for the poor souls in purgatory on a daily basis!

Originally arranged as 30 Days for the Holy Souls, this book was written to engrave on the minds and hearts of its readers an indelible understanding of Purgatory: first, that it exists; second, that the souls detained there suffer long and excruciating pains, likely even of the same nature as those of Hell, and thus that they desperately need our prayers, sacrifices, and Mass intentions; and third, that while we are still living, we ourselves should strive mightily to avoid Purgatory.

We read in St. Matthew's Gospel, "Be ye therefore perfect, as also your heavenly Father is perfect" (Matthew 5:48). Yet we know that none of us is really perfect and that few human beings die in a state of soul with all their past sins atoned for during life. Most people whose souls are saved, therefore, end up detained for a time in Purgatory. Some reports say that the passage of "time" (though they have passed out of time, in a fashion) in these souls' perception is slowed to a hundredth or less of what we on earth experience. Thus, the agony and languishing of the Poor Souls often seems almost interminable.

Stories about Purgatory and What They Reveal: 30 Days for the Holy Souls will impress upon your heart a healthy and holy respect for the sufferings endured by the Holy Souls, such that you will ever after remember them in your prayers and Masses. It will teach you also to strive to rectify your own life, that you may avoid Purgatory altogether—or at the very worst, spend very little "time" there before being united to God in Heaven. Belief in Purgatory is truly Catholic and consoling; it is a reality whose truth has been buttressed by many famous true stories, recorded here, of the sufferings undergone by the Poor Souls, plus their gratitude toward and wonderful aid for those who help them.
