The capital sins.

Tweet

They are the heads,roots and sources of all other sins. They are seven:pride,covetuosness,lust,anger,gluttony,envy and sloth. Pirde is inordinate love of our own self esteem. Covetuosness is inordinate love of temporal goods. Lust is inordinate love of carnal pleasure. Anger is inordinate love of vengeance. Gluttony is inordinate love of food and drink. Envy is hatred for our neighbour on account of his good. Sloth is ommission of duty. It is clear that God wants every person and mankind to live life that pleases him. That is why christ said whoever wants to reach heaven must pick up his cross and follow him. They way that christ passed through is so clear such that at every step, there are traces of his blood that dripped out of his holy body as he trodded the way of calvary. It is my hope that by contributing to this discussion you would help in changing the uncolourful face of the society. We have to come out together and fight with one spirit so as to impact rapid change of values in the society. Thank you all and your are most welcome.
