Pravda o spáse je taká, že cesta k nej môže byť ťažká i ľahká. Azda najťažšie sa k nej dostane, kto je ako otrok svojich vášní pripútaný k pôžitkom tohto sveta a ponorený do zmyselných, telesných rozkoší. S ľahkosťou ju, naopak, získa, kto pozná jej hodnotu a upína sa na Boha a jeho večné dobrá. Knižočka, ktorej autorom je škótsky biskup George Hay (1729 – 1811), významná postava Katolíckej cirkvi, nás upriamuje na najvznešenejší cieľ nášho života: večnú spásu našej duše. Predstavuje nám jej troch úhlavných nepriateľov – telo, svet a diabla –, aby sme ich rozpoznali vo svojom živote a vyhli sa ich nástrahám.
