Show 198: The 7 Principal Virtues and vices, Zeal in Doing Good and Sloth

  • Summary

  • ZEAL IN WHAT IS GOOD
    1. Zeal in what is good consists in working out one's salvation with all earnestness and fervor.
    2. Without zeal in what is good we cannot be saved, for the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence.

    THE OPPOSITE OF ZEAL: SLOTH.


    1. Sloth consists in shunning everything that conduces either to our temporal or eternal well-being, provided it be toilsome.
    2. Idleness leads to all kinds of vice ; it brings misery in this life and eternal damnation in the life to come.
    3. Those who are inclined to indolence should think fre quently of the reward, both temporal and eternal, of industry, and thus they will overcome their distaste for work.
