Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Penitent Christian, Vol. 1: Or, Sermons on the Virtue and Sacrament of Penance, and in Everything Required for Christian Repentance and Amendment of Life, and Also on Doing Penance During the Time of a Jubilee, and During Public Calamities; In Seventy-Six Sermons, Adapted for All Th
The frequent hearing of the word of God in sermons is special ly necessary for those sinners who are actually in the state of sin, and who are thinking of repenting some time or other; for, if they do not hear the word of God, they must, humanly speaking, continue in their unhappy state, and be lost forever. Such is the whole subject.
A constant hunger to receive food for our souls in sermons, and the speedy repentance and conversion of sinners, are the end and object of this discourse. Help us thereto, O Almighty God, by Thy powerful grace, which we ask of Thee through the intercession of Mary and of our holy guardian angel.
