Lex Cordis Caritas - The law of the heart is Love

by Bishop Thomas John Paprocki
In my previous reflections, I addressed the topic of indulgences. An indulgence is a remission before God of the temporal punishment for sins, whose guilt is forgiven, which a properly disposed member of the Christian faithful obtains under certain and clearly defined conditions through the intervention of the church. Indulgences are a means from the spiritual treasury of God’s graces to help us get to heaven. So as we celebrate Easter it is fitting to discuss the conditions for obtaining indulgences to assist us on our journey to eternal life.
