7.  The biblical definition of sin is found in 1
John 3:4: “Sin is the transgression of the
law” (King James Version).
 To sin is to transgress, or break, the law
of God. the offense of breaking, or the
breaking of, a religious or moral law
 Sin is a riddle, a mystery, a reality that
eludes definition and comprehension.
Perhaps we most often think of sin as
wrongdoing or transgression of God's law.
Sin includes a failure to do what is right.
But sin also offends people; it is violence
and lovelessness toward other people,
and ultimately, rebellion against God.

12.  Pride, sometimes called vanity
or hubris, is considered the
fundamental sin and the
mother of all vices. The first
sin ever committed was an act
of pride when Satan refused to
recognize God as his Lord.

13. Greed is the desire for material
wealth or gain, ignoring the
realm of the spiritual. It is also
called Avarice or Covetousness.
Greed is a selfish and excessive
desire for more of something
(such as money) than is needed.

14.  The dictionary definition of lust is
intense or unrestrained sexual craving
or an overwhelming desire or craving."
Lust is essentially to crave something,
usually associated with worldly desires
of sexual intent or material
possessions. Lust is sinful longing; the
inward sin which leads to the falling
away from God (Romans 1:21).

15.  Envy is the sin of jealousy over
the blessings and achievements
of others, especially the
spiritual enjoyment and advance
of the kingdom of Christ freely
and graciously bestowed upon
the people of God.

16.  Gluttony is defined as intemperate
eating. The Catholic Church
considers it the fifth of the seven
cardinal sins. In the Middle Ages,
theologians and moralists
condemned it and advocated
moderation. The pleasures of eating
were safe within the bounds of
codified, convivial meals.

17.  Wrath can be summarized as strong
vengeful hatred or resentment. The
warnings of wrath in Christianity arise
from the consequences of vengeance in
human relations. We can become
consumed by rage and revenge to the
point of acting irrationally and immorally.
This is the wickedness of wrath and why
it is included as a deadly sin.

18. Sloth is the avoidance of physical or spiritual
work. Sloth is the desire for ease, even at the
expense of doing the known will of God. Whatever
we do in life requires effort. Everything we do is
to be a means of salvation. The slothful person is
unwilling to do what God wants because of the
effort it takes to do it. Sloth becomes a sin when it
slows down and even brings to a halt the energy
we must expend in using the means to salvation.

20. The gravity of sin is a weight that we as Christians should always be wary of. It rots us,
pulls us down, and makes us lose our way to God. Scripture speaks of a distinction
between sins which are based on their seriousness or “gravity.” The Catechism of the
Catholic Church (CCC) notes, “The distinction between mortal and venial sin, already
evident in Scripture, became part of the tradition of the Church. It is corroborated by
human experience” (CCC 1854). “Mortal sin destroys charity in the heart of man by a
grave violation of God’s law; it turns man away from God, who is his ultimate end and his
beatitude, by preferring an inferior good to him. Venial sin allows charity to subsist, even
though it offends and wounds it” (CCC 1855).

21. Mortal sin, also called cardinal sin, in Roman Catholic
theology, the gravest of sins, representing a deliberate
turning away from God and destroying charity (love) in the
heart of the sinner. A mortal sin is defined as a grave
action that is committed in full knowledge of its gravity and
with the full consent of the sinner’s will.

22. A venial sin usually involves a less important matter and
is committed with less self-awareness of wrongdoing.
While a venial sin weakens the sinner’s union with God, it
is not a deliberate turning from him and so does not
wholly block the inflow of sanctifying grace.

25. Sin creates a proclivity to sin; it
engenders vice by repetition of the
same acts. This results in perverse
inclinations which cloud conscience
and corrupt the concrete judgment of
good and evil. Thus sin tends to
reproduce itself and reinforce itself,
but it cannot destroy the moral sense
at its root.

28. Within the person, repetition of sin brings about
a proclivity to sin, resulting in perverse
inclinations and erroneous judgments. Sin
reinforces itself and destroys any moral roots.

29. Some sins are called "capital" (according to St. John
Cassian and St. Gregory) because they engender other
sins. The seven capital sins are pride, avarice, envy,
wrath, lust, gluttony, and sloth.

30. Sins That Cry to Heaven (1867)
These sins include the blood of Abel (murder),
the sin of the Sodomites (sodomy), the cry of
the oppressed, the widow or the orphan, and the
injustice to a wage earner.

31. Accomplices in Sin
(1868-1869)

32. Accomplices in Sin (1868-1869)
 We have a duty not cooperate in the sins of others. Therefore, we
must avoid any direct participating in, or ordering sinful acts. Also, we
cannot approve sinful acts by allowing them or by protecting
evildoers.
 Men can become accomplices in sin and cause injustice to reign by
bringing about "social sins." These sins establish sinful structures and
institutions which are against God's goodness and cause people to sin.
