The Seven Deadly Sins: A Thomistic Guide to Vanquishing Vice and Sin
The seven deadly sins are generals leading a vast and deadly army. The soldiers are a variety of sins and misdeeds, and the capital sins are the officers who sent them on their nefarious tasks.
With the writings of St. Thomas Aquinas as his guide, best-selling author Kevin Vost tackles the deadly sins one-by-one, showing how they take root in our soul and give birth to offspring ÔÇö other sinful thoughts and deeds that help it reach its sinful goals.
YouÔÇÖll learn how they attacks us, and how they become ingrained habits that prevent virtue from raising us to heaven. Indeed, these sins hold us down to earth ÔÇö and possibly, ultimately, even much lower.
The deadly sins can be conquered, and in these pages youÔÇÖll learn the methods employed by saints to vanquish vicious habits and replace them with virtuous ones.
Follow the advice in this book, and youÔÇÖll soon strike at the head of sin and walk more positively in the light and love of Christ.
