Perfect Contrition - The Golden Key

A Catholic in mortal sin can be saved without confession and absolution, but he cannot be saved without contrition. God is abounding in mercy, but without supernatural sorrow for our sins we cannot be forgiven of our sins. In this audio book which is the collection of two works “Contrition” by Father O’Keefe and “Perfect Contrition: the Golden Key of Heaven” by Father J. von den Driesch you will learn: What contrition is and how do we know if we are truly contrite. The difference between a good and bad confession. What the difference between imperfect and perfect contrition is. How to obtain perfect contrition. Is it difficult to make a perfect act of contrition. How soon do we have to go to confession if we make a perfect act of contrition. Contrition is sincere sorrow for having offended God, and hatred for the sins we have committed, with a firm purpose of sinning no more. Let the wicked man forsake his way and the unjust man his thoughts, and let him return to the Lord; and he will have mercy on him. (Isaiah 55:7)
