1 | Are the Seven Deadly Sins in the Bible? | Prov 6:16 | Makarios | 4185 | ||
Are the Seven Deadly Sins mentioned in the Bible? The Seven Deadly Sins are Pride, Greed, Envy, Anger, Lust, Gluttony, and Sloth. I believe that they are mentioned in the Bible, but not all together in one place. Proverbs 6:16 comes the closest to mentioning 'Seven Deadly Sins'.. I believe that each one is independently condemned in the Bible at least once.. Pride (1 Pet. 5:5), Greed (1 Tim. 6:10), Envy (Rom. 13:13), Anger (Eph. 4:31), Lust (Matt. 5:28), Gluttony (Prov. 23:20-21), and Sloth (Prov. 18:9).. Is every sin that man commits an 'offshoot' or can be traced back to one of these basic, deadly sins? It is also argued that the counterparts for the Seven Deadly Sins are Humility (Phil. 2:3) for Pride, Contentment (Psalm 34:10) for Greed, Love (1 Cor. 13) for Envy, Forgiveness (1 John 1:9) for Anger, Purity (Psalm 119:9) for Lust, Self-Control (Rom. 12:1) for Gluttony, and Diligence (Prov. 12:24) for Sloth. The Seven Deadly Sins are not mentioned as such in the Bible, but I believe that these are the 'root' sins in which all others come.. Any thoughts? | ||||||
