In this episode, Father Despósito continues his commentary on Royo Marín's Theology of Christian Perfection. Today's topic is the struggle against the world and the flesh. The world as an obstacle to salvation and sanctification, the meaning of the term "concupiscence," and the remedies against sensuality, are some of the issues discussed on the present show.

In this episode, Father Despósito continues his commentary on Royo Marín's Theology of Christian Perfection. The spiritual life involves a constant battle, a struggle against many forces. Advice is given to those who live habitually in mortal sin; the effects of venial sin are explained. What should our conduct be before, during, and after temptation by the devil?

In this episode, Part III: Negative Aspect of the Christian Life begins in Royo Marín's Theology of Christian Perfection with Stages of the Christian Life.

The three principal classifications which have been proposed in the history of Christian spirituality are the classic division into the three ways (purgative, illuminative and unitive), that of the three degrees (beginners, proficient and perfect), and that of St. Teresa of Avila as outlined in her Interior Castle. We shall bend these three classifications in order to construct the following schema of the entire Christian life.

The next chapter in Royo Marín's Theology of Christian Perfection is on Models of Perfection.

Jesus Christ is the only way. No one can go to the Father except through Him, for there has been given to us no other name under heaven by which we can be saved.

Mary is, in a word, the shortest and most secure path to Christ. God has wished that Mary should be so intimately associated with the divine plan of redemption and sanctification that they cannot be attained without her. Consequently, this is not merely a question of another devotion, but Mary has a basic and necessary role to play in the Christian life.

This episode continues with Royo Marín's Theology of Christian Perfection on Mysticism and Christian Perfection.

"The essential constitutive of mysticism is the actuation of the gifts of the Holy Ghost in the divine or superhuman manner which ordinarily produces a passive experience of God or of His divine activity in the soul."

Mysticism enters into the normal development of sanctifying grace.

In this episode, we continue with the chapter, Christian Perfection, in Royo Marín's Theology of Christian Perfection.

All Christians are obliged to aspire to Christian perfection. We say all Christians in order to signify that the obligation to aspire to perfection is not restricted to priests and religious.

"Be you therefore perfect, as also your heavenly Father is perfect." Matthew 5:48 "But according to him that hath called you, who is holy, be you also in all manner of conversation holy: Because it is written: You shall be holy, for I am holy." 1 Peter 1:15–16
