Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Sin is never small, private, or inconsequential. In these uncompromising sermons, Cardinal Henry Edward Manning examines sin as Scripture and the Church understand it: a rupture in the soul that distorts reason, weakens the will, and darkens the path to God. With clarity and precision, he traces sin's effects through conscience, habit, judgment, and eternity itself. This is moral theology, Dear Reader, spoken with the urgency of a pastor--intended not to accuse, but to awaken. Manning writes for souls who desire truth more than comfort, and repentance more than reassurance. His words restore gravity to moral choice and illuminate the mercy that alone can heal what sin destroys. This book does not flatter modern sensibilities; it forms them, calling the reader to vigilance, humility, and conversion while there is still time to return Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.…
