Consoler of the Poor Souls

"It is incontestably recognized sincejudgementtrumpet will sound the foundation of Christianity that the souls of the faithful departed are delivered from purgatory through the intercession of St. Michael the Archangel."

                             -St. Robert Bellarmine

For Reflection:

And also, according to St. Alphonsus Liguori: "St. Michael has received the care of consoling and helping the souls in purgatory."   Wow!  I feel much better, even relieved knowing that Our Lady's special Angel, Michael,  will be interceding, consoling and helping souls in purgatory.

 Pg 28  The great prophet St. Paul, for whom time had no bounds and space no size, believed that he had already been transported there.  In his cave at Bethlehem, St. Jerome could hear the trumpet of doom awakening the dead, and his hair stood on end, out of fear, and his flesh and bones quivered with an indescribable shudder.  Lastly, Christ tells us to meditate upon these great teachings, for it is certain that we shall be taken by surprise, and that the time will come sooner than we think.
