Verily, we know not what an evil it is to indulge ourselves, and to make an idol of our will.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Having received the Spirit of Christ to know good from evil, we should always choose the good.
Evil is knowing better, but willingly doing worse.
I do all the evil I can before I learn to shun it? Is it not enough to know the evil to shun it? If not, we should be sincere enough to admit that we love evil too well to give it up.
What we call 'evil' doesn't necessarily deserve any kind of respect or understanding, by any means; it just deserves an acknowledgement of its complexity so we can better understand it - so we can help prevent it.
This is the very worst wickedness, that we refuse to acknowledge the passionate evil that is in us. This makes us secret and rotten.
We are all born marked for evil.
Our greatest evils flow from ourselves.
Is it not enough to know the evil to shun it? If not, we should be sincere enough to admit that we love evil too well to give it up.
There is such a thing as doing good that evil may come.
We may draw good out of evil; we must not do evil, that good may come.
