About This Book

The author presents a series of Lent conferences that examine the conditions God imposes for the pardon of sins committed after baptism. He argues for the necessity of genuine contrition and for judicial absolution accompanied by confession, marshaling scripture and extracts from early Christian writers to support these points. The work outlines the biblical and patristic foundations of repentance, distinguishes true conversion from mere reformation, offers pastoral guidance for priests and penitents, and includes added material answering questions about sacramental confession and absolution.
