This forum is intended to be a safe place for non-Catholics AND Catholics to ask questions about Catholicism and Catholic teachings. Here you can read about the faith from faithful, practicing Catholics, ask them your questions, and start to find out exactly what being a Catholic is all about. (Questions and discussions on matters of faith are to be kept respectful and non-inflammatory.)
Devotion to the souls in Purgatory contains in itself all the works of mercy, which supernaturalized by a spirit of faith, should merit us Heaven. de Sales
certainly isnt ~ classic example our Lord's temptation in the wilderness....and he was without sin......
recently watched the film of Saint Pio ~ he was tormented constantly by the evil one appearing to him (even tempting him with Padre pio's spiritual daughter) ~ also other scenes of his attack in his cell by demonic forces ~
Temptation (as was in the wilderness with Jesus) is the evil ones attempt to make people fall.
Prayers, perseverance and loving trust in God are our shield always.
St Michael protect all
"He who followeth Me, walketh not in darkness." sayeth the Lord
When one doesn't give into the temptation, one is practicing VIRTUE!
