Purgatory

by Rev. Francois Xavier Schouppe

This book, written by a Jesuit priest, explores the Catholic doctrine of Purgatory. It provides a detailed account of the state of Purgatory, describing it as a place of purification for those who have died but are not yet ready for Heaven. Schouppe delves into the nature of Purgatory, including the types of pain experienced by souls there, and the role of prayer and good works in aiding their purification. The book draws heavily on accounts from Saints, claiming to offer eyewitness perspectives on the experience of Purgatory. This book aims to provide a theological understanding of Purgatory and encourages readers to consider its implications for their own lives and their relationship with God.
