MR 5.F Analysis on Particular Judgement
Particular Judgement is the idea that when we die, we are either inclined towards God, or we reject him in our last moments. At the moment of our judgement, we are judged by God based on our choice to love him or reject him. The choice for humanity is simple, yet difficult. On a spectrum, we are very dark from Original Sin, but at Baptism we are shot into the light. However, during our lifetime we go through fluctuating movement in our faith, and trave constantly from dark to light and light to dark. Contrarily, angels make one decision to darkness or light. If God is pure light, and absented of darkness then he pours out his grace and mercy and a just judge, and therefore judges us justly depending on whether we choose to face him or reject him at Particular Judgement. He does not judge us solely on our earthly lives. Our soul, however, still needs a purging of darkness to be in full communion witht the light: a purification of sin and its effect. This state of being, or process, is called Purgatory.

MR 5.D Analysis on Apostolic Succession
Paul says to Timothy, "What you have heard from me before many witnesses, and trust to faithful men wil be able to teach others also." This quote is in reference to the first three generations of Apostolic succession. The Church Fathers regularly looked to apostolic succession to tell whether Catholics or heretics had correct doctrine. This was a solidification of the truth through apostolic succession. The descendents of the Apostles should be highly regarded on doctrines of the Church.
