Catechesis: Ap XXVII MONASTIC VOWS

We maintain that legitimate vows should be kept, but we are arguing about other questions. Do these services merit the forgiveness of sins and justification? Are they satisfactions for sins? Are they equal to Baptism? Are they “evangelical perfection”? Do they have merits of supererogation? Do these merits save others when they are transferred to them? Are vows made with these notions in mind legitimate?—Ap XXVII:9
