When we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, we were still enemies; now that we have been reconciled, surely we may count on being saved by the life of his Son?
Rms.5:10
Paul displays the source of our hope of salvation... the death and resurrection of Jesus.
There's a misplaced hope that all good people get to heaven. Not so, only forgiven people do. This means I need to admit I need forgiveness and that there is a person greater than me who is the only one who can grant it.
This is a stumbling block for many and reason enough to pray for all souls here on earth as well as those in purgatory.
Thank you Jesus for dying for me to gain me mercy and hope .
Saint Philip Neri, please pray for me.
