St. Alphonsus Liguori s Moral Theology has long been praised and
held in the highest regard by the Church, covering every moral
question of his day. This first ever English translation features
book 4 of the Theologia Moralis, on The first through sixth
commandments. These will cover topics as broad as the sin of
divination, worshiping demons, blasphemy, oaths, vows, and when
they are binding; when you must go to Mass and abstain from work,
as well as considerations on the fourth commandment in regard to
obedience, the fifth in terms of murder, just war and abortion, and
in the 6th, adultery and the various sins against chastity.
St. Alphonsus Liguori's Moral Theology has long been praised and
held in the highest regard by the Church, covering every moral
question of his day. Mediatrix Press is pleased to bring you the
first English Translation of this excellent work, once widely read
but relegated to obscurity on account of the loss of Latin fluency
in Western Society. Volume 1 embraces the first three Books of
Alphonsus' Moral Theology. Bl. Pope Pius IX declared: "Focusing his
mind on the glory of God and the spiritual salvation of men he
wrote many books, related with holy erudition and piety, whose
opinions were between those embraced by both more lax and rigid
theologians, to fortify the safe path by which the confessors of
Christ's faithful could advance without dashing their foot upon a
stone. [Apostolic Letter Honoring St. Alphonsus with the title of
Doctor of the Church]
