Here are the actual words used by the Council of Trent: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Whosoever shall affirm, that when the grace of Justification is received, the offence of the penitent sinner is so forgiven, and the sentence of eternal punishment reversed, that there remains no temporal punishment to be endured, before his entrance into the kingdom of Heaven, either in this world or in the future world, in purgatory, let him be accursed.&lt;/i&gt; Council of Trent, January 1547.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4802533392686387690/5772088221109954477/comments/default/1714656292973218330'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4802533392686387690/5772088221109954477/comments/default/1714656292973218330'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://devotionalgemsbyjolene.blogspot.com/2010/12/assurance-over-doubt.html?showComment=1292145796097#c1714656292973218330' title=''/><author><name>Michael Gormley</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07940745178193985942</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_55f8emZDzc8/TOGeRHPkVtI/AAAAAAAAFF8/DFxxvzC2AIs/S220/_MG_1043a%2BMickdg%255B1%255D.jpg'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://devotionalgemsbyjolene.blogspot.com/2010/12/assurance-over-doubt.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4802533392686387690.post-5772088221109954477' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4802533392686387690/posts/default/5772088221109954477' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-1184498705'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.displayTime' value='December 12, 2010 4:23 AM'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4802533392686387690.post-631804756619394585</id><published>2009-01-10T06:58:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2009-01-10T06:58:00.000-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Greetings Jolene Griffith &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;On the subject o...</title><content type='html'>Greetings Jolene Griffith &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;On the subject of the Trinity,&lt;BR/&gt;I recommend this video:&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;A HREF="http://www.jesusishuman.com" REL="nofollow"&gt;The Human Jesus&lt;/A&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Take a couple of hours to watch it; and prayerfully it will aid you to reconsider "The Trinity"&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Yours In Messiah&lt;BR/&gt;Adam Pastor</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4802533392686387690/2465121368211424553/comments/default/631804756619394585'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4802533392686387690/2465121368211424553/comments/default/631804756619394585'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://devotionalgemsbyjolene.blogspot.com/2009/01/getting-to-know-jesus-part-1-of-3.html?showComment=1231588680000#c631804756619394585' title=''/><author><name>Adam Pastor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15340033095309858240</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://devotionalgemsbyjolene.blogspot.com/2009/01/getting-to-know-jesus-part-1-of-3.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4802533392686387690.post-2465121368211424553' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4802533392686387690/posts/default/2465121368211424553' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-442028758'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.displayTime' value='January 10, 2009 6:58 AM'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4802533392686387690.post-7005665535526263280</id><published>2008-10-27T18:58:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-10-27T18:58:00.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Thank you Jolene for the dedication.
