Roman Catholicism: Trips to Lourdes to Cut Time Spent in Purgatory
by Pastor-Teacher Ken Silva
For those who think that apostate Roman Catholicism has actually changed in things related to salvation CRN has a tip for you: It would seem there’s a large bridge in England one can get a REAL good deal on.
But for those who of you who live in the real world we have this from Enland’s Telegraph: "Pope Benedict XVI is offering relief from purgatory to Roman Catholics who travel to Lourdes over the next year, the Vatican said yesterday." *psst* Now the Vatican would be a pretty good source for what truly goes on in the RCC.
Pilgrims to the shrine in south-west France will receive "plenary indulgences" from the Pontiff, which the Church says reduce the time spent being "washed" of sin after death. The indulgences will be available from this weekend until Dec 8, 2008. The Church teaches that people who do not go directly to heaven must spend time in purgatory, where they can be purified of residual sin.
