Thesis on our Sins

[Rudi 1747]

 

 A thesis on losing your virtuous

 

 

 

Gaining entrance to the eternal gardens of prosper and Gloria is the main goal of the quest we call life. But how does one achieve it? To the demise of many, most folk, even the most pious tend to believe, that being praying to GOD and carry his banner of faith is enough to ensure a spot in the skies. The only way for GOD to decide in your favour is by acting virtuously . In the following paragraphs we are breaking these sins down to their cores by looking into the Holy Scrolls themself.

In order to act virtuously we have to consider on what you should try to prevent on doing while you are wandering on GOD’s mortal realm. The common idea of Sins is a common turn, even under the uneducated. The moral complexity, that our society is build on, doesn't come out of nowhere but the Scrolls. By acting virtuously, you are actively trying to avoid on commiting the following sins:

 

 

Blasphemy

“Thou shalt not blaspheme My Name nor Word, nor any thing that is holy.” Canticle of Faith 4:1-2.  

The reason this sin is the first and most important to know, lays with the Deceiver and Trickster himself. The Scrolls tell us, in Horen how he first corrupted the three brothers but Horen and even Horen’s own lineage, to drift them away from GOD. It shows us that being born by a faithfull parent, doesn’t automatically makes you a good man of Canon. Harren, first son of Horen, who was meant to take his fathers place, born and raised to another prophet,  fell for the sweet whispers of the Void  (Scattering 12:4-7).
Conclusion: The whispers of the Void and Iblees itself take the shape of many things: From false hopes to gifts and false beliefs. The first and most important task to be virtuously  and please GOD is praying and following his call. Do not get distracted and lead on by flase prophets even when it suits you.

 

Greed

“Thou shalt not covet the wealth of this world, nor the wealth of others, but the wealth of the spirit.” Canticale of Charity 4:1-3.  

This sin can be understood in different ways. It includes, evidently referring to the materialistic greed, but also the greed for power and dominance. This sin is a critical and listed second, due to his tendencies to tempt to commit other sins as well, as shown later.
Conclusion: By possessing nothing more than you are actually needing, you distance yourself from the temptation of commiting more sins. But a man of noble heritage is not judged and false accused of having fallen to Greed. Horen itself ruled as a king (Horen 1:1), which legitimises the need for rulers who are strong in faith. But a man hoarding power and abusing his power for his own benefits gets judged by GOD and branded as a sinner.

Libido

“Thou shalt not lie with thy kin, nor the weak of mind, nor the young, nor those of other tribes, and none shall lie together but in holy union.” Canticle of Temperance 4:1.

Libido includes various form like mix breeding and incest. Both originating once more by Harren, who layed with an elven wife, who later shackled his own brother Joren who found love to a woman of his tribe, Tara, in Owyn 3:1-3. Mixing close blood and blood with other tribes thereforth results in a weaker mind. Weaker in the way of giving in to the temptations of the void.

Conclusion: The holy Marriage serves not just as proving GOD and its children that two individuals of the same tribe. But as an important sacrament to affirm your beliefs and showing that you are openly standing up against the sweet whispers of sin and the seducer.

 

Sloth

“Thou shalt not lie idle or inactive, nor forget thy duties in favor of sloth.” Canticle of  Diligence 4:2.

 A closer elaboration on Sloth can be found in the thesis on Sloth by brother Walter.

 

Impatience

“Thou shalt not raise a hand in wrath, nor in envy, nor in any kind of sin.” Canticle of Patience 4:1.

Orginating from the failure of Owyn to keep up to his faith and slaying Harren, in Owyn 11:6-7,  its the most moderate sin and easiest sin to fall for. Not as heavily frowned by GOD and quickly pardoned, if one is blessed and regretted his actions. Conclusion: Abstaining from sinning is the hardest task of our lives. Even the most pious men tend to sin at least once in their life. Impatience is so to say a normal way of responding to failure, even if they are our own. Be patient with yourself and seek guidance from clergy if you have failed to be patient.

 

Superbia

“Thou shalt keep fast to thy word and to thy station, and aspire not to greatness among men, but to My glory.” Canticle of Fidelity 4:2-3.
As already stated above, power is way into corruption and a gateway to commit other sins. Superbia takes many form and shapes and appears even in the most holy communities. The first time appearing as Harren was meant to be baptized in the Grotto of Gamesh (Scattering 9:3-4) There he acted too prideful and was sure of gaining divinity and becoming the prophet secundus. This act of Superbia caused him to automatically seal his fate, to fall to the blade of Owyn. Conclusion: Superbia only ends in one way, with force. The danger lies in its patience. Superbia can appear in a man, who has not sinned in his entire life but in the final moments of his life, stating PROUDLY that he hasn't sinned and knows that he will enter the Skies.

 

Iudicum

“Thou shalt not judge the sufficiency of thy Virtue, be it great or small, for all magnitudes fall short of Me.” Canticle of Humility 4:2-3.
To live virtuously is challenging and not an easy task. Comparing and judging your own worth to others brings just misery to yourself. When Owyn. slayed Harren, he did not just out of wrath but also because he thought his own virtuous was bigger than that of Harren. Only GOD is meant to judge you and you should not worry, if someone else appeared to be more pous that you are. Conclusion: Iudicum leads to conflicts and bad blood between the kin. No one but the mother church is meant to judge one's faith in GOD, but ultimately it is GOD, who gives the final word.
