Question. 14 - OF THE QUALITY OF SATISFACTION (FIVE ARTICLES)
We must now consider the quality of satisfaction, under which head there are five points of inquiry:
(1) Whether a man can satisfy for one sin without satisfying for another?
(2) Whether if a man fall into sin after being for all his sins, he can, now that he has lost , satisfy for his other sins which were pardoned him through his ?
(3) Whether a man's previous satisfaction begins to avail when he recovers ?
(4) Whether works done without merit any good?
(5) Whether such works avail for the mitigation of the pains of hell?
