SIGNATURE & RELATIONSHIP
(MUST BE A FAMILY MEMBER):
Love of Neighbor: The Communion of the Saints,
The Souls in Purgatory.
One of the works of mercy is to pray for the living and the dead.
The living gets the lion’s share of our attention when we think of
love of neighbor. However, love of neighbor also includes
prayer and Masses for the dead. Prayer for the dead should be
daily. They are dead to this world but we trust alive for God in
eternity. We cannot assume anyone is in heaven except
canonized saints and innocent baptized children. Even if the
person we are praying for is in heaven the love being bestowed
is not wasted because the Lord uses the love for some other
member of the family which is the Church.
November 1st is the day we remember the saints and the angels
in heaven. On November 2 we remember those being purified of
the wound of sin and unforgiven venial sin in purgatory. We on
earth are still striving (the Church militant) to reach heaven. This
union of the saints in heaven, the souls in purgatory, and the
faithful on earth is called the Communion of the Saints.
Nov. 1st through Nov. 8th is a privileged time to visit the
cemetery. Those who do so engaging in prayer for a deceased
soul may gain a plenary indulgence for that person.
-3-
An indulgence is the complete (plenary) or (partial) remission of
the temporal punishment due to sin or the wound of sin. All sins
have two effects: they either destroy (mortal sin) our relationship
with God or they weaken our relationship with God (venial sin).
However, even after the sin is forgiven the wound of sin remains
which must be healed. This is why we receive a penance in
Confession to help heal the wound. This penance is to help make
up for the damage our sins have caused (satisfaction) us and the
Church because our sins injure the Body of Christ to which we
are united as cells in a living body. What we do for good
benefits the Body of Christ; our sins drag down and injure the
Body of Christ.
To be clear, the wound of sin or the temporal punishment due to
sin means this: an unhealthy attachment to creatures which must
be purified in this life or in the life to come. This means an
attachment to some love in opposition to God’s love. Life is the
battle of the loves. Loving God with all our heart, soul, mind,
and strength is the key to heaven and seeing God face to face.
Indulgences mean, that in seeking to make up for our sins, we
have the help of the holiness of Christ, the Virgin Mary, and the
saints, (the treasury)because since we are one family the holiness
of one profits or benefits the other. A special share in that
holiness through the action of the Church is called an
indulgence.
This treasury should not be thought of as an accumulation of
material wealth. Rather it is the limitless and inexhaustible value
that the expiation and merits offered by Christ have in the eyes
of God for the liberation of humanity from sin and the creation
of communion (family life) with the Father. The treasury of the
Church is Christ the Redeemer Himself. Added to this treasure is
also the vast, incalculable, ever increasing value in God’s eyes
of the prayers and good works of the Blessed Virgin and all the
saints. They also have contributed and contribute to the salvation
of their brothers and sisters.
Indulgences developed during the centuries when the Church
began to mitigate the great and heavy penances people had to go
through for serious sin in order for them to be forgiven. The
Church through her power to bind and loose in Christ’s Name
gives us a special share in the holiness of Christ and the saints
through the performance of some religious/charitable work: in
this case visiting the cemetery during the privileged time and
praying for the soul buried there for whom you wish to gain the
indulgence as an act of love.
To gain a plenary indulgence you must do the work prescribed;
go to Confession and Communion within the week; pray for the
Holy Father usually on the day you do the work; and be free
from all attachment to sin even venial sin. Only God knows
whether we gain the plenary indulgence. As part of our spiritual
life we should always make the intention to gain all indulgences
attached to our works of piety and charity.
At the end of life we will be judged on our love, strive to love as
God desires to be loved and abandon your present state. St. John
of the Cross, Dichos (the Sayings) #64
