Book Of Holy Indulgences: Compiled From The Decrees Of The Sacred Congregation Of Indulgences And Other Approved Sources (1876)

The Book of Holy Indulgences is a compilation of decrees from the Sacred Congregation of Indulgences and other approved sources. Written by Michael Comerford in 1876, the book provides a comprehensive guide to the Catholic Church's teachings on indulgences. Indulgences are a form of remission of temporal punishment for sins that have already been forgiven, and they are granted by the Church to those who perform certain acts of piety or devotion. The book explains the various types of indulgences, their requirements, and the benefits that accrue to those who obtain them. It also includes prayers and devotions that can be used to obtain indulgences. The Book of Holy Indulgences is an essential resource for Catholics seeking to deepen their understanding of the Church's teachings on this important aspect of spiritual life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
