Sin! 😬 — Catechism Answers w/ Dr. Scott Sollom (September 8, 2023)

Описание: Have questions about the Catechism? We have answers!

💬 Today, Dr. Sollom will be answering the following questions:

1. "Is the sin of presumption of God’s mercy an unforgivable sin?"
2. "I understand what Father meant about the severity of sin (day 247), but what I still don't understand is the difference between venial and mortal sin. Every sin that I can think of goes against at least one of the ten commandments and that makes them mortal correct?"
3. "What happens to those cremated but before they passed on, left a very specific request to scatter their ash in the ocean, river or just in a high windy place?"
4. "I have two friends debating a question on sin and have asked me for guidance. Since we are just getting into the topic of sin I want to make sure I respond correctly. One says God keeps score and your sins are counted when you arrive at heavens door. The other says God does not keep score. Please include any scripture to back up the Catholic belief on this topic."
5. "Fr. Mike emphasized the importance of the theological virtues. Why do we hear so little about them?"
