Faith Booster

I'm 21 and going to a very secular private university in southern California which is full of lukewarm Christians...especially lukewarm Catholics. My generation has all but lost a sense of fear in God's Justice, and this book is exactly what we need. It helps to clarify everything you ever wanted to know or were curious about Purgatory, restore the gravity and incalculable value of Mass in the mind of the reader, and develops a profound appreciation and inspiration of the Saints of the past.

I had a very rough notion of what Purgatory was before I read this book and boy am I glad I read it. The cover makes it look really ghetto and like some cult book which I wish they kind of changed, but nevertheless, never judge a book by its cover AMEN!

Very few books have covered a topic so well nor have deepened my faith like this one. I think in an age where we have forgotten the concept of guilt, this book is a must read for all Catholics.

More people my age should read this, because it does such a good job of setting values and priorities straight in one's life, creates a strong urgency in a person to change for the better and to strive for perfection, to grow the right type of fear in God's Justice, to better understand and become confident in His Infinite Mercy and most importantly, the book ends on a note of charity and suggests a variety of ways we can fulfill this Divine Commandment towards our brothers and sisters -the Souls Departed.

What can I say?

I love God even more after this and there can be nothing but good that comes out of that :)

Looking forward to reading the book again and again throughout my lifetime.

Peace

Purgatory: Clear, concise, eye opening

Across a broad spectrum of titles, subjects and the like, this is by far one of the best books I have ever read. It is very difficult to put down, once you get into the meat of it. I've never ever had Purgatory explained to me so well and so concise. If you don't believe in Purgatory...think again. If you think Purgatory is simply a stopping off or resting place prior to Heaven...get ready for a BIG TIME reality check. On the good side, if you've made it to Purgatory, at least you are on your way to Heaven. The whole idea, though, is to work here in this life to get straight to Heaven. It's a whole lot simpler and eternally less painful to purge oneself of sin in this life...and not wait until the next. This book needs to be read by all.

A Treasure...

There is absolutely no value we can put to the knowledge we can learn from this book. I am extremely glad to be a Roman Catholic.
