Sin, Law, and Grace

In this course, we will explore the treatises on vices and sin, law, and grace, found in the second part of the Summa Theologiae. First, we will cover the distinction between vice and sin, the effects of sin, what original sin is, and the difference between mortal and venial sin. Then, we will examine what God gives us to help us live a virtuous life and avoid sin: law and grace.
