Question 27 — Those Whom Indulgences Avail

We must now consider those whom indulgences avail.

Under this head there are four points of inquiry:

(1) Whether indulgences avail those who are in mortal sin?

• (2) Whether they avail religious?
• (3) Whether they avail a person who does not fulfill the conditions for which the indulgence is given?
• (4) Whether they avail him who grants them?
