Seven Deadly Sins


One answer heard is that they are from the mouth of Jesus. This is not a common answer though. If looked up it is found not to be true. Another good answer is that this is all from the Catholic Church and not from the word of God, the Bible. This is probably due to the fact that Pope Gregory the Great revised them. But in actually he just shortened the eight deadly sins to only seven. This was due to his findings in the Bible. Which he believed to be true? Another answer is that yes they are in the Bible does contain the seven deadly sins but is spread thought the Bible. It is not contained in a few passages, which brings me to the last answer. The seven deadly sins are contained in Matthew's Gospel (chapters 5 through 7) but they are not in simple list there. I do believe though that theses sins are in the Bible, and from my readings I do believe all the sins are through the bible. Yes I do believe that most of the sins are contained in Matthew's Gospel (chapters 5 through 7). The bible does explain in detail about the sins that should not be committed.
             There are seven deadly sins which are Pride, Envy, Gluttony, Lust, Anger, Greed, and Sloth. They are also in order from least bad to worst. The sins however do not go unnoticed. They also have a specific kind of punishment. Pride is excessive belief in one's own abilities, which interferes with the individual's recognition of the grace of God. It has been called the sin from which all others arise. Pride is also known as Vanity. Theses sins were not just made up by Pope or any other preacher, but were auctually in God's final word, the Bible. "Pride goeth befour destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall". (Prov. 15:8) Upon arriving in Hell your punishment would beyour body broken on the wheel. Envy is the desire for others' traits, status, abilities, or situation. The Bible says, "Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.
