Venial sin - Venial sin According to Catholicism, a venial sin is a "temporary loss of grace" from God. A venial sin consists of a sin that meets only two or fewer of the following conditions: subject must be "grave matter"; it must be committed with full knowledge; it must be committed with deliberate and complete consent. A sin that meets all of the conditions is a mortal sin. (Sub gravi is when a sin is committed to achieve an end. A levi gravi is a sin that is committed with no goal in mind.) Each venial sin that one commits adds to one's time in purgatory. A venial sin can be left unconfessed. Venial sins remain venial no matter how many one commits; they cannot "add up" to.
Sin - Sin This page is concerned with the common meaning of "sin" related to immoralities. For other meanings, see Sin (disambiguation) Sin is a concept used primarily in the Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam) describing a transgression against the will of God, and often held to require repentance and penance; in some theologies it may also entail the risk of damnation. Some religions hold that a sin is an act which does damage to the soul. Atonement describes the process through which we become reconciled to God for sins. It was a concept derived from Judaism and became a central idea of Christian theology. In Christian theology, impeccability is the absence of sin. In Hinduism and other vedic religions, the term sin is often used to.
Mortal sin - Mortal sin According to Catholicism, a mortal sin, unlike a venial sin, must meet all of the following conditions: subject must be ‘grave matter’; it must be committed with full knowledge it must be committed with deliberate and complete consent. Mortal sin is defined by St. Augustine (Contra Faustum, XXII, xxvii) as "Dictum vel factum vel concupitum contra legem æternam", i.e. something said, done or desired contrary to the eternal law, or a thought, word, or deed contrary to the eternal law. According to Catholic doctrine, a mortal sin produces macula, or stain on the soul. http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/14004b.htm Mortal Sin is also the name of a Seminal Australian thrash metal band. http://www.metalgospel.com/MortalSin/.
Indulgence - punishment due to God for a Christian's sins. The Roman Catholic Church grants these indulgences after the guilt of sin and its punishment of eternal damnation have been remitted by the sacrament of reconciliation, also known as penance, or by perfect contrition. Under Roman Catholic theology, the salvation made possible by Jesus Christ allows the faithful sinner eventual admittance to Heaven. Baptism wipes the sinner's slate clean and results in the full forgiveness of sins; but any sin committed after baptism incurs a penalty that has not been forgiven. Serious sins are mortal sins; they extinguish sanctifying grace in the believer's soul, and doom the sinner to Hell. For these sinners, grace must be restored by perfect contrition or the sacrament of Reconciliation; even so, there remains a penalty owed to.
Gildas - council, an enemy more savage than the first, the subversion of cities, concerning those whose survived, and concerning the final victory of our country that has been granted to our time by the will of God. In the second part, opening with the assertion "Britain has kings, yet they are tyrants; it has judges, yet they are undutiful", Gildas addresses the lives and actions of five contemporary rulers: Constantine of Dumnonia, Aurelius Caninus, Vortipor of the Demetae (now called Dyfed), Cuneglasus of "the Bear's Stronghold" (Din Eirth, possibly Dinarth near Llandudno), and lastly Maglocunus or Maelgwn. Without exception, Gildas declares each of these rulers cruel, rapacious, and living a life of sin. The third part begins with the words, "Britain has priests, but they are fools; numerous ministers, but they are.
Grace - Reformation: 10 For further reading: Shared concepts of grace Amazing grace! (how sweet the sound) That sav'd a wretch like me! I once was lost, but now am found, Was blind, but now I see. All Christians believe that humans achieve salvation through the grace of God. Most Christians of any of the major denominationss agree that humans are born in a state of sin. This is a consequence of original sin; a sinful nature is inherited; it is part of the human condition. Traditionally, original sin is explained as a result of the fall of man through the first sins of Adam and Eve in Eden. Some would now reject the story from Genesis as history. But even those who reject it still agree that humans are born in sin..
Teresa of Avila - oratio recollectionis or oratio meretalis. Besides, she employed other mystical ascetic works; such as the Tractatus de oratione et meditatione of Peter of Alcantara and perhaps many of those upon which Ignatius Loyola based his Exercitia, and not improbably this Exercitia'' itself. She professed, in her illness, to rise from the lowest stage, "recollection", to the "devotions of peace" or even to the "devotions of union", which was one of perfect ecstasy. With this was frequently joined a rich "blessing of tears". As the merely outer and void Roman Catholic distinction between mortal and venial sin dawned upon her, she came upon the secret of the awful terror of sinful iniquity, and the inherent nature of original sin. With this was correlated the consciousness of utter natural impotence and the necessity.
Philip III of Spain - duke of Lerma, and when he fell under the influence of Lerma's son, the duke of Uceda, in 1618, he trusted himself and his states to the new favourite. The king's own life was passed amid court festivities, on which enormous sums of money were wasted, or in the practice of childish piety. It was said that he was so virtuous as hardly to have committed a venial sin. He cannot be justly blamed for having been born to rule a despotic monarchy, without even the capacity which would have qualified him to manage a small estate. He died at Madrid on March 31, 1621. The story told in the memoirs of the French ambassador Bassom-pierre, that he was killed by the heat of a brasero (a pan of hot charcoal),.

Lying in a way that escalates rather than de-escalates a conflict is usually considered the worst sin. A liar is a person who is known to have a tendency to tell lies. People's tolerance for liars is generally very small, and it is.
Kim, Yoo-Sin - Kim, Yoo-Sin Kim, Yoo-Sin was born in Gyeyang, Jincheon in 595, became a Hwarang warrior at just 15 and was an accomplished swordsman and a Kuk-Son (Hwarang leader) by the time he was 18 years old. By the age of 34 he had been given total command of the Silla armed forces. Yoo-Sin felt that Baekje, Goguryeo and Silla should not be separate countries, but should instead be united because all the people had the same ethnic background. He is regarded as the driving force in the unification of the Korean peninsula, and is the most famous of all the generals in the unification wars of the Three Kingdoms, but his victories were tempered by his regret that they had to be at the expense of people he.

Yi Sun-sin - Yi Sun-sin Yi Sun-sin (이순신 ; 李舜臣), Yi Sun-shin in McCune-Reischauer (1545 - November 19, 1598), was an admiral who led the resistance against the Japanese force in Korea, thus earning himself the honor of legendary hero. Yi Sunsin was born in Gaepung County (개풍군; 開豐郡), Gyeonggi Province (now part of Seoul). His courtesy name was Deoksu (덕수 ; 汝諧), sobriquet Yeohae (여해 ; 德水), and posthumous name Chungmu (충무; 忠武). The Korean admiral was responsible for defeat of Japanese invasions in 1592 and 1597. In 1592, Toyotomi Hideyoshi gave the order to invade Korea, planning to sweep through the peninsula and then conquer China. Admiral Yi designed iron-roofed ships called Geobukseon or turtle ship. These were the first ironclad warships, and played a significant part in the.
Freising manuscripts - written in the 9th century. They were discovered in 1807 in the Munich National Library during the examination of the manuscripts from Freising near Munich, which was once the centre of a diocese. During the time of the writing of the two manuscripts (sermons on sin and repentance, a confessional form), bishop Abraham was active (from 957 to 994) in Freising, who also acquired a large estate of land in the Creina province around Škofja Loka (now central Slovenia). For this reason some linguists (e.g. Jernej Kopitar and Rajko Nahtigal) linked him closely to the origin of the Freising Manuscripts and, without any firm evidence, attributed him as being the author of one of the texts and suspected that he was of Slovenian origin.

King Munmu of Silla - the midst of the long conflict against Baekje and Goguryeo, shortly after General Ge-Baek and Baekje had been defeated at Puyo by General Kim, Yoo-Sin. The first years of his reign were spent trying to defeat Goguryeo, following an abortive attempt in 661. Finally, in 667, he ordered another attack which led, in 668, to the defeat of Goguryeo. After the small isolated pockets of resistance were eliminated, King Munmu was the first ruler ever to look upon the Korean peninsula and see it completely unified. King Munmu ruled over unified Silla for 20 years, until he fell ill in 681. On his deathbed, he left his last will and testament, and abdicated to his son, Prince Sinmun. Before he died he said “A country should not be without a king.

Kohen - all Kohanim are Levites. Most of the service in the Temple could be conducted only by Kohanim. Non-Kohen Levites assisted in the services of the Temple. After the destruction of the Second Temple in Jerusalem the formal role of priests in sacrifical services came to an end. This change affected the role of the Kohen and Levites. In the absence of a temple in Jerusalem, sacrifices are not brought. Instead there are other Jewish methods of atoning for sin. The role of the priesthood after the Temple After the destruction of the Second Temple in Jerusalem the formal role of priests in sacrifical services came to an end. This section will discuss how this change affected the role of the Kohanim and Levites, and how it led to the development of.
Kol Nidre - "May all the people of Israel be forgiven, including all the strangers who live in their midst, for all the people are in fault." The Torah scrolls are then replaced, and the customary evening service begins. Philip Birnbaum, in his classic traditional edition of the Mahzor (High holy day prayer book) comments on this passage: "It refers to vows assumed by an individual for himself alone, where no other persons or interests are involved. Though the context makes it perfectly obvious that no vows or obligations towards others are implied, there have been many who were misled into believeing that by means of this formula all their vows and oaths are annulled. In the eleventh century Rabbi Meir ben Samuel (Rashi's son-in-law) changed the original wording oof Kol Nidre so as.
