All right, we should be live now.

I've got a fun announcement for you guys, but first let me talk about the Seven Deadly

Sins.

It doesn't sound like a fun thing to talk about.

But all this stuff's interesting, and there's an element of fun in that because it's just relevant to the truth about God, the truth about ourselves,

the truth about spiritual things, the truth about eternal things, the truth about that deep, really important stuff that we so often forget about.

So the first question for today, well you guys are loading your questions into the live chat,

is I've heard people refer to the seven deadly sins

but I haven't been able to find that sort of list in scripture. Are those sins

especially deadly according to scripture.

If not, where did that list come from?

And actually, the origin of the list is pretty interesting.

The Seven Deadly Sins, we trace back to Gregory the Great, the first, the Pope, he was a Pope at the time, and we're

talking like 500s.

So he came up with this list, but he didn't come up with it on his own. So the list we have today, it's like his list. So it's pride, lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, anger, or wrath, and envy. That list we've got that Gregory had, but there was a monk

before Gregory that had a longer list that included stuff like sorrow.

Sorrow, which it strikes me and you know I haven't looked into the whole history of what he meant by that word or why he used that term or what even was the, you know, the,

he's probably using Latin or something, what was the you know the little little he's probably using Latin or something what was what was the word he used there

but the idea that sorrow itself as a sin it sounds

strange to me

Jesus was acquainted with of a sorrow, right?

As scripture says, at any rate, what are the seven deadly sins?
