Spirits and the Indulgence

Base what I understand and what I heard in the video talk of Rev.FR. Daniel Estacio
spirit won’t roam around without the permission of God and there are 4 spirits categories but
only 2 struck me the most the unclean spirit and the spirit from the purgatory which is the spirit
who is need of cleaning and prayers. First the unclean spirit in my opinion and reaction while
listening to the talk of Father Daniel Estacio I feel a little goosebumps since he told that this
spirit are not from the purgatory but this spirit is the Devil who just want us to be scared and
suffer and he also told that if you pray this spirit will not be happy and will do something
uncomfortable and the only thing you should do is continue your prayer and be positive and have
faith in God and the bad spirit will be gone. Next is the spirit from the purgatory this spirit is
need of cleansing but according to Father Daniel Estacio this spirit is Good even though they are
need of cleansing this spirit roam only if the God allowed them to roam and go to there love ones
just to feel that they are there and according to Father Daniel Estacio this spirits are need prayers
and this spirit will ask for prayers once they are around to visit you but not scare you they just
need prayers and they will go back to purgatory until the purification is complete and they will
ascend to heaven with God.
Lastly, I also learn to Father Daniel Estacio that Indulgence is very important because
there are talks about that the first 8 days of November, we will have a chance to receive a plenary
indulgence by visiting the graves of our loved ones and offering prayers to them. Indulgence is
the remission of the temporal punishment that already forgiven by God and once you received
Indulgence the temporal punishment that you made will be forfeit in the purgatory and will lead
to ascending to the heaven early. November 1 and 2, one indulgence can be received for
attending the church and offering prayers. Lastly, spirits in the purgatory are already have their
spot in heaven but the only questions are when they will be purified and ascend to heaven and
the answer is by giving prayers and offering it to them that’s why it is very important to give and
offer prayers to you love once that passed away. All in all, I learned a lot to the talk of Father
Daniel Estacio in terms of faith and about the 4 spirits and their purpose. To be honest I already
know this, but my knowledge is not that broad enough and I’m very thankful to Father Daniel
Estacio by giving us a talk about it. It really clarifies the questions that I have and understand it.
