This week’s readings provide insights about the issues in the early Church like the ways in which indulgences used to be sold by the Catholic priests during the time of Martin Luther. This is because there are practices like the selling of indulgences still prevalent in remote areas of the church mostly. There are members of the church who are not very educated and they might not understand the implications and the true meaning of the selling of indulgences. Therefore, they would just follow what the priests would tell them to. In this way, such members of the church would be exploited for not using their own sense of morality/justification by faith and rationality.
