In this episode Father Philip Eldracher and Alexander discuss how charity applies to oneself and of the notion of Christian Self love, differentiating between what this truly is as opposed to the modern ideals which are such a risky trap with the way society is currently. Then discussion on the Ten Commandments takes place, specifically to cover the Introductory questions.
Father Philip Eldracher
A Complete Catechism of the Catholic Religion by Father Joseph Deharbe, S.J. was originally written in German, was very popular in the 19th century, and was translated into English. Bishop Donald Sanborn finds the Deharbe Catechism to be the most complete to convert and instruct people in the Catholic Faith.
“A Complete Catechism of the Catholic Religion” by Father Joseph Deharbe S.J. is available to purchase in a beautiful, cloth-covered hardback with gold-embossing for a very-discounted price in the True Restoration store.
Father Eldracher is currently pastor of Mary Help of Christians chapel and provides the Traditional (Tridentine) Latin Mass to faithful Catholics throughout Australia.
