The Art of Dying Well: Fourth Precept: Containing Three Evangelical Counsels
from Manna of the Soul - Catholic Audio · host Manna of the Soul
Chapter 4: Fourth Precept: Containing Three Evangelical Counsels "From these considerations it is evident, how great must be the negligence and ignorance, not to say the blindness and madness of the greater part of mankind, who, although so often warned by the Spirit of Truth itself, who cannot deceive, to prepare for death, (that great and most difficult affair, on which eternal happiness or misery depends;) yet few are there that are roused by the words, or rather by the thunder of the Holy Spirit. But some one may reply: “What advice do you give to teach us to watch as we ought, and by watching to prepare for a good death?” Nothing more useful occurs to me, than for us frequently and seriously to examine our conscience, that so we may prepare for death."
