{"product_id":"the-biblical-basis-for-purgatory-john-salza-9781935302179","title":"The Biblical Basis for Purgatory","description":"Jesus taught us about it, and for centuries the Church has faithfully defined and defended it. Protestants deny it even exists, while many Catholics fundamentally misunderstand it. It is Purgatory: that place of purifying penance where souls saved by Christ are made perfect and acceptable to spend life eternal in heaven. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In The Biblical Basis For Purgatory, author and apologist John Salza (Why Catholics Cannot Be Masons) offers the definitive scriptural explanation of this distinctively Catholic doctrine. Building on the teachings of Christ and St. Paul, he shows how the existence of a place of temporal punishment after death is not only a logical extension of what we know about the reality of sin and God's justice, but is also a supreme expression of God's love and mercy. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Although Purgatory is a place of mercy, its pains are real, and they are severe. This book does more than defend and explain Purgatory it provides a solid plan, drawn from the Church s perennial wisdom for conquering our sins by God s grace, while still on earth. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Salza\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1935302175\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781935302179\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Saint Benedict Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.80d","brand":"John Salza","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43989545353471,"sku":"9781935302179","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_285705dd-6a83-41aa-9a48-ea7c2375f5d3.jpg?v=1683300117","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-biblical-basis-for-purgatory-john-salza-9781935302179","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
