4 BALTIMORE CATECHISM LESSON TWENTY-FIRST: On Indulgences Q Why did the Church moderate its severe penances? A. The Church moderated its severe penances, because when Christians -- terrified by persecution grew weaker in their faith, there was danger of some abandoning their religion rather than submit to the penances imposed. The Church, therefore, wishing to save as many as possible, made the sinner's penance as light as possible. Q To what things may Indulgences be attached? A. Plenary or Partial Indulgences may be attached to prayers and solid articles of devotion; to places such as churches, altars, shrines, etc., to be visited; and by a special privilege they are sometimes attached to the good works of certain persons. Q When do things lose the Indulgences attached to them? A. Things lose the Indulgences attached to them: 1. When they are so changed at once as to be no longer what they were; 2. When they are sold. Rosaries and other indulgenced articles do not lose their indulgences, when they are loaned or given away, for the indulgence is not personal but attached to the article itself. Q Will a weekly Confession suffice to gain during the week all Indulgences to which Confession is enjoined as one of the works? A Weekly confession will suffice to gain during the week all Indulgences to which confession is enjoined as one of the works, provided we continue in a state of grace, perform the other works enjoined and have the intention of gaining these Indulgences. Q How and when may we apply Indulgences for the benefit of the souls in Purgatory? A. We may apply Indulgences for the benefit of the souls in Purgatory by way of intercession; whenever this application is mentioned and permitted by the Church in granting the Indulgence; that is, when the Church declares that the Indulgence granted is applicable to the souls of the living or the souls in Purgatory; so that we may gain it for the benefit of either.
