Eye Opening; Good that I know this now

"Purgatory has been very unmindful for me in the past but this book will explain the theological logic of Purgatory and it'll make you take notice of your future. It's all good; understanding of how to help others that have passed before us and how to make retribution before our last heartbeat."

LARRY P. (5/5)

Very Enlightening

"I always believed in Purgatory, but never knew or was taught in Catechism class what it was REALLY like. I found it a little frightening but so worth it if it gets you to the Glory of Heaven and eternal life with our loving God!"

Purgatory by Fr. FX Schouppe, SJ

"I borrowed the book from my church library, and I am GLUED to the pages! I had no idea of the importance of praying for the dead. Sure you hear about it, but it goes in one ear and out the other. This book gives hard numbers about accumulating petty sins just in one day, and it's clear that we will ALL spend time in Purgatory with very few exceptions. I'm still on the first part about Jesus' justice, and want to warn everyone in sight now. What a wonderful boon to have this book."

Purgatory Explained

"Very good can’t wait to read more. Great stories about the saints. Perfect if you want to read about purgatory and legends of the saints."

Margaret P. (5/5)

Excellent!

"Excellent! Part 1 - Contains 41 chapters of the Mystery of God's Justice Part 2 - Contains 65 chapters of the Myster of God's Mercy We are so blessed to have the documentaries of the accounts of the lives of the saints! Easy to read - Packed with short chapters composed of compelling accounts of the lives of the saints. It's organized such that reading one or more of these short chapters at a time is easy."

Purgatory

"The revelations from the saints about Purgatory was frightning, but I am glad to have purchased this book. I did not realize that the torment was as bad as hell, especially the fire, except that the soul knows one day it will be in heaven. Everytime I open or close the oven it comes to mind! To counter this fright, the book describes what you can do to pay your debt and others in Purgatory in this life. St. Catherine of Genoa said that if purify yourself of your faults in this life, you satisfy with a penny a debt of a thousand ducats ($300,000)."

Laura D. (5/5)
