Helpful for understanding Roman Catholic teaching,
By
This review is from: Catechism of the Catholic Church, Gift Edition (Paperback)
All paragraphs are numbered. At the end of each paragraph are numbers to other paragraphs so the reader can find further information. There is a very good index. Yet, the paragraphs often seem to talk around a topic without nailing down a point in clear language. I did a search for 'purgatory.' When I finished references were sending me back to paragraphs I read at the beginning of the search, all while not really answering some of my questions.

The definitive Catechism!,
By kmweber@ibm.net (Philadelphia, PA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Catechism of the Catholic Church, Gift Edition (Paperback)
This should be considered the definitive statement of the Roman Catholic Church's thinking and belief to-date. As Pope John Paul II says, "A sure norm for teaching the Faith". Answers many questions and clarifies specific issues currently in the fore of Catholic and world thought.

CCC is good for you!,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Catechism of the Catholic Church, Gift Edition (Paperback)
The catechism will explain any unclear issues you may have regarding your faith. - Scripture is not self-interpreting, see Acts 8:27-31. Also you must be very carefull interpreting the bible yourself, see 2Pet 1:20-21. You don't have to be able to read Greek and Hebrew to be saved. What a treat by the church Christ started.
