The Second Seven Deadly Sins
(An Introduction to
the Second Seven Deadly Sins)
From the Holy Bible
These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an
abomination unto him:
A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent
blood,An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
Proverbs 6:16 – 19, KJV
The Seven Deadly Sins
(An Introduction to the Second Seven Deadly Sins: Part II)
The following is a list of the commonly recognized Seven
Deadly Sins. I invite you to compare
these to the Seven Deadly Sins as listed in Proverbs 6: 16-19, which I listed
on 5/14/2014
1. Wrath: Anger, Rage, Fury, Ire
2. Greed: Insatiability, Self-indulgence
3. Sloth: Laziness, Idleness, Lethargy, Inactivity
4. Pride: Arrogance, Conceit, Smugness,
Self-importance, Egotism
5. Lust: Desire, Yearning, Covetousness
6. Envy: Jealousy, Bitterness, Resentment, Spite
7. Gluttony: Excess, Superfluous
The Second Seven
Deadly Sins
As you look at the two above lists you see that there is
some overlap. Also, as you look at the
second list, the one that is “widely recognized”, you will notice that there is
overlap within the list itself. For
example, Greed, Lust, and Gluttony are very closely related. I have also come to the conclusion that PRIDE
is at the root of the other six.
I have often wondered what the Second Seven Deadly Sins
are. I’ve searched and have found no
such list. Therefore, I’ve created my
own list. Here for your enjoyment is my
list.
