Tobit 4:11 *For alms deliver from all sin, and from death, and will not suffer the soul to go into darkness.

Ecclesiasticus 29:15.
Sin, provided faith, etc., be not wanting. (Menochius) --- When the Scripture seems to attribute salvation to one virtue, to faith, repentance, etc., it always presupposes that the heart is free from all mortal guilt. (Haydock) --- Alms deeds may procure a fresh supply of graces. (Menochius) --- Darkness, or hell, which is thus represented, Matthew 8:12., and 22:13., and Ephesians 6:12.
