The Bible: The Nine Satanic Sins

Superior Essays
The last similarity between these two Bibles is they both talk about sin. Both of these faith believe in sin and have a list to share with their followers. Catholics call theirs the Seven Deadly sins and Satanism call theirs the Nine Satanic Sins. They are pretty straight forward. Both faiths believe if you follow these actions there will be consequence ; that is why they are sins. They are trying to help you not live your life through these transgression actions. The catholic sins a lot of people have probably heard of; it does not matter the order. 1. Lust 2. Greed 3. Gluttony 4. Envy 5. Anger 6. Pride 7. Sloth. Catholics do believe if you commit these acts you can be forgiven. Satanics believe there are nine different things they should …show more content…
Personally though before I read it I thought it would be more evil and gruesome as our society has protread to be. While reading it, it helped open my horizon to another religion, to how other people view the world. No two religions are the exact same, one has to have some aspect that sets them apart. Examples the Jewish faith does read the Torah same as Catholics but they do not believe in Jesus. Satanism and Catholicism on the other hand more people can probably name the differences then the similarities. One of the most obvious is Satanist do not worship God, they worship themselves. They do not believe in praying to ask for help by God they believe if you need something done go out and do it yourself; to find a way to figure it out and solve it. Another one I found a little more interesting is Satanist do not believe in an afterlife. I always wondered what they thought would happen to them after death if they believed in hell. I found out through the Bible, they do not believe in hell nor an afterlife. They think to just live your life to the fullest because this is all you got, your one shot. When you die, you die you do not go anyway after, you do not

    “Sin, Satan and the Snake” One can help when thinking about sin to go back the Genesis account. Genesis 3 takes an enormous and a very important role in the history and the understanding of the intrusion of sin. It lays in sequence the transgression and its consequence, which is constructed in two parts: part one brings to us the transgression, 3:1—7, and part two the chastisement, 3:8—24.7 Nevertheless, the concentration of this exposition will be on part one. Throughout the Scriptures one sees a tentative correlation between passages; some say that Ezek 28:11—19 may have some connection to that of Gen 3.8 One can say that modernist scholars have considered the accounts of the creation and the enticement to be folklore.…

    The Catholic Church has delineated various pious and sinful actions that humans are capable of; it would logically follow that in Hell, these sins would be punished in respectfully distinct manners. However, how would one qualify which sin is the most egregious, and how would one decide which punishment would fit the crime? In The Inferno, Dante seeks to answer these questions in a grand categorization of religious sins, beginning with those of lack of baptism and ending with those of treachery.…

    Betrayal is a common theme across fiction literature and media. Showing moments of a person turning his back on his boss, leader, and superior power to become independent. Or gather their own people and fight back, become rival of their former boss. Betrayal would be like, putting your loyalty in someone, and them turning their back on yours. It is something that can happen to anybody in the real life and Paradise Lost by John Milton, Lord of the Flies by William Golding, and the hit TV series El Chema by Rafael Amaya all have the realistic and eye opening portrayals of betrayal and the impact it can have on the lives of the characters involved.…

    Because it has typological inferences to a historical king, Satan and The Antichrist, this chapter presents interpretive challenges. The same three-fold typology is found in Daniel chapter 8 around the character and events of Antiochus Epiphanes. The previous chapter, Ezekiel 27, contains historical information about the very wealthy King of Tyre. Located on the Mediterranean Sea, Tyre was a major trading center and jewel of the ancient world.…

    The book that I chose for this critique is Criminals of the Bible: Twenty- Five Cases of Biblical Crimes and Outlaws, by Mark Jones. This book is both interesting and intriguing. It was interesting in the concepts of how many criminal actions that took place during the time of the Bible mimic many of the crimes committed in society today. Although the punishments today are a lot different, they still carry the same type of stiff punishments that they did in the Bible.…

    As Elbert Hubbard says, “We are not punished for our sins, but by them.” This is most certainly the case in Khaled Hosseini’s novel, The Kite Runner. Through the protagonist’s eyes, we are shown how evil, in the form of sins, can control people from birth, adolescence, adulthood, and can lead to their demise. This is primarily demonstrated with Baba’s pride blinding and controlling him from Hassan’s conception, to his own death. Another example of sin is the rage displayed in Assef, a boy who grows up to be a sociopathic man.…

    Were all destined to fulfill a purpose in life in which we want a path that guides us without being so laborious. It's like a seed sprouting in the spring, the seed grows and flourishes into a beautiful flower all through summer to only wither and die in the cold winter, but it must all take place in order to regenerate. As humans were lit up with the seed of aspirations to then face yourself with obstacles that you never expected. We all want to get to those aspirations or the blooming stage, but it is equally essential to pass by the bloom and face the unawareness of life's reality before the new seed can be born. Death being so catastrophic portrays people being forlorn, but in a religious aspect we can see it as a beatific moment for one's…

    The catholic belief regarding life after death is once you die your soul is separated from your body and goes to one of three places, heaven, hell and purgatory. If your body and soul were in a state of grace you would be sent to heaven. However if your soul needs cleansing you would be sent to purgatory. Hell is where those who reject God will end up. In order to become apart of Gods kingdom and become a catholic you must first be baptized which indicates you will be united with God as you have freely chosen to love him.…
