Thanks to technology, and perhaps due to Christianity’s low status in our modern liberal age, there is a fantastic treasure trove of good, traditional Catholic books available for free or near-free. Below are links to valuable and timeless Catholic texts (including those written by great saints and Fathers and Doctors of the Church) that you can read and download for free. Take advantage of this – they have changed my life and will change yours, too.

Airport/Airline Security Airport/Airline Security: 'Intelligence and Airports,' by Robert T. Raffel, 76 FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin No. 4, pgs 1-7 (April 2007).

Tolle et lege! Please say a prayer for my sanctification. May God reward you for your charity. (Due to the length of the book list it has become necessary to split it in two..) NOTE ABOUT THE SEARCH FUNCTION: The searched for terms will be highlighted in yellow throughout all the pages. If you are searching for a precise phrase (e.g. Rapidshare Rapidleech 2012 Nfl. A book name) you can narrow down the results by putting the phrase into “quotation marks”. Then go to either of the book pages and scroll down through the text to see the highlighted phrases.

If you can’t find the book you’re looking for submit a comment and I’ll try to help. Indeed, we’ve grown so accustomed to comfort and ease of life that the mere idea of the penances and sufferings of the saints of old (or even modern ones, like St. Gemma, Padre Pio, Bl. Alexandrina, etc) seems repulsive and terrifying. Ultimately, the ability to do such things (and also to bear involuntary sufferings with patience and even joy) is a measure of our love of God. The saints were able and willing to do this because they loved God above all else.

What really matters is not how much and how severe penance and mortification one performs, but the love (of God) with which one does everything. We can gain as much – if not more – merit by sanctifying all our daily acts – i.e. By doing everything we do (no matter how small or insignificant!) for the love of Jesus and by uniting all our acts, thoughts, words, etc to Him and to His life, suffering and death. Thus all our acts, washed in His precious Blood and united to Him, done with a pure intention (for the love of God) would have great merit, and would save countless souls. A simple act of love of God (something all of us can do many times throughout the day) is worth infinitely more than the greatest works done with less love. First of all I sincerely thank God for blessing you and thank you for humbling yourself and letting go of the attachment of the world. Because if you did not let go you would not have shared your valuable knowledgePraise God, Praise God, Praise God!!!
