    Study Notes

    • Pecados are thoughts, words, and actions against the divine law.
    • Divine law is not a thick and long book of legal dispositions but rather the love of God and the love of neighbor.
    • Actions contrary to the love of God or neighbor are mortal sins. Examples include idolatry, murder, and theft.
    • Mortal sins destroy the bond of love that unites us.
    • Venial sins, like all sins, show a lack of order and are less grave as they do not directly oppose the love of God or neighbor.
    • Lying is always a sin, but it is more grave if it harms the neighbor or causes damage.
    • Venial sins can lead us to commit mortal sin.
    • A lit candle symbolizes the grace that illuminates the soul and shows us the way to God, a waning candle represents the effect of venial sin on our spiritual vision.
    • Living a virtuous life means eating well, growing, and prospering.
    • Venial sins are like undigested food that causes discomfort while mortal sins are like poison that requires divine intervention for healing through the sacrament of reconciliation or confession.
