Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Love of Jesus to Penitents is a devotional and theological work by Henry Edward Cardinal Manning. The book examines the nature, effects, and necessity of the Sacrament of Penance within the Catholic Church. Manning presents a clear exposition of Christ's mercy toward sinners and the means by which grace restores the fallen soul. Drawing on Scripture, patristic teaching, and pastoral experience, he explains how confession renews the interior life through contrition, absolution, and perseverance in amendment.The work is structured as a series of meditations and instructions addressed to both clergy and laity. Manning describes the moral psychology of sin and repentance, the cooperation of the will with grace, and the sacramental character of reconciliation. Each chapter treats a distinct aspect of the penitential process: the call to conversion, the preparation for confession, the effects of absolution, and the formation of habits that sustain a state of grace. The author's intent is to make the theology of penance immediately applicable to the spiritual life, without speculative digression.Within the context of nineteenth-century English Catholicism, The Love of Jesus to Penitents reflects Manning's broader pastoral project of restoring sacramental discipline among the faithful after centuries of neglect. The text served as both a manual of instruction and a work of spiritual encouragement during the Catholic revival in England. It remains a representative document of Manning's style-precise, ascetical, and doctrinally firm-and continues to be valued for its lucid presentation of traditional Catholic teaching on repentance and divine mercy.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - For the first time since its original release in 1892, Charles Maignen's influential work La souveraineté du peuple est une hérésie (The Sovereignty of the People Is a Heresy) is now available in English. This powerful theological and political treatise challenges one of modernity's foundational principles-the idea that sovereignty resides inherently in the people.Drawing on Catholic doctrine and the teachings of Suarez, Maignen argues that true sovereignty belongs to God and is exercised through legitimate authorities, not directly by the people. He exposes the revolutionary doctrine of popular sovereignty as a dangerous error and a heresy that undermines divine order and social stability.A vital read for historians, theologians, and anyone interested in political philosophy, this work provides a rigorous critique of liberal and democratic ideologies from a 19th-century Catholic integralist perspective. Maignen's sharp defense of monarchy and divine authority resonates with ongoing debates about legitimacy, governance, and morality.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - What is conscience, and by what authority does it bind the soul What gives an action its moral weight and fixes responsibility before God How do virtue and vice shape the interior order of the person and the health of society What grounds justice, duty, and obligation beyond private judgment and social fashion How does Catholic moral teaching govern concrete acts in daily life Explanation of Catholic Morals offers clear and authoritative answers to these questions through a disciplined exposition of moral theology rooted in Scripture, reason, and the enduring teaching of the Church. Written by Rev. John H. Stapleton at the opening of the twentieth century, this work presents moral life as an ordered participation in divine law rather than a matter of sentiment, preference, or cultural mood.Against the moral confusion produced by modern subjectivism and the erosion of objective standards, Stapleton unfolds a vision of Catholic morality shaped by hierarchy, duty, virtue, and the final end of man in God. Each chapter guides the reader toward a formed conscience, a stable moral judgment, and a life governed by truth rather than impulse. This volume stands as a sober, traditional guide for readers who seek moral clarity amid the disarray of modernity and who desire to recover the coherence and seriousness of Catholic moral teaching.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This work gathers and arranges the many scattered writings, sermons, letters, and pastoral works of Cardinal Pie, whose episcopal mission in nineteenth-century France made him one of the most ardent champions of the doctrine that Our Lord Jesus Christ reigns over both individual souls and over human society in all its collective and institutional dimensions. In these sources, the good Cardinal repeatedly affirms that the supernatural order, established by God in creation and consummated in the Incarnation and Redemption, remains obligatory and indispensable; the establishment of Christian piety and divine law in private life must find its complement in the public, civic order so that society might reflect the order of grace. Through the methodical work of Fra Saint-Just, the book renders accessible this comprehensive vision: Christ's kingship is universal, lawful, and foundational for all legitimate human community.Very apt for our time, in its systematic chapters the book shows that to deny the social reign of Christ - that is, to limit Christianity to private devotion or mere 'personal morality' - is to accept the desacralization of society. Society is thusly reduced to a bifurcation in which the temporal order is autonomous, dechristened, and exposed to the revolutions of impiety, materialism, and social discord. Cardinal Pie, as Fra Saint-Just presents him, insists that when the State or civil institutions abandon the recognition of Christ's sovereign kingship, they relinquish their legitimacy.…
