Description: Victory Over Vice & The Seven Virtues by Allan Smith, Fulton J. Sheen Victory Over Vice & The Seven VirtuesTwo of Archbishop Fulton J. Sheens best-selling books have been brought together in one special collection.The first part of this book is a collection of engaging sermons from this Emmy award-winning and New York Times best-selling author will encourage the reader to better understand that the seven deadly sins can be overcome with the help of the advice given in the Seven Last Words spoken by Christ from His Cross.Using these words spoken by Jesus from the Cross on Calvary as a backdrop, Sheen will address matters concerning various addictions and patterns of habitual sin. He will use his inimitable writing style, with immediacy, yet conveying joy and comfort in the subject matter.These meditations on the Seven Last Words correlated to the seven deadly sins make no pretence to absoluteness. The Words are not necessarily related to the seven deadly sins but they do make convenient points of illustrations.HELP IN OVERCOMING THE SIN OF ANGER"Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do."HELP IN OVERCOMING THE SIN OF ENVY"This day thou shalt be with Me in Paradise."HELP IN OVERCOMING THE SIN OF LUST"Woman, behold thy son! (Son) Behold thy mother!"HELP IN OVERCOMING THE SIN OF PRIDE"My God! My God!

Sheens engaging sermons which will encourage the reader in the practice of the three theological virtues of faith, hope and charity along with the four cardinal virtues of prudence, temperance, justice and fortitude.Sheen will make the connection between the seven virtues and the Seven Last Words spoken by Jesus from the Cross. While these meditations by Fulton J. Sheen on the Seven Last Words correlated to the seven virtues make no pretence to absoluteness, they do make convenient points of illustrations.FOR THE VIRTUE OF FORTITUDE"Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do."FOR THE VIRTUE OF HOPE"This day thou shalt be with Me in Paradise."FOR THE VIRTUE OF PRUDENCE"Woman, behold thy son! (Son) Behold thy mother!."FOR THE VIRTUE OF FAITH"My God! My God! Why hast Thou hast abandoned Me?"FOR THE VIRTUE OF TEMPERANCE"I thirst."FOR THE VIRTUE OF JUSTICE"It is finished."FOR THE VIRTUE OF CHARITY"Father, into Thy Hands, I commend My Spirit."This book has one main aim and that is to awaken an appreciation of the Passion of Our Lord and to hopefully incite the reader to turn away from the seven deadly sins and to practice the virtues. If it does that in but one soul its publication has been justified. FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Review A must readSuch a wonderful Grace-filled writing!I will read this over and over!This is a Saint who wrote this! An outstanding guide to the spiritual lifeI am old enough to remember watching Fulton Sheens television show and have read other books he authored. But this book takes you on a tour of the sins that cripple our souls and points out the cause and remedy for each. Frequent reference is made to examples from the lives of Jesus and Mary. This is not a theology treatise, nor a shame game. It is a flood light showing you the inner workings of our human weaknesses. I believe that starting from the advice in this book, by way of humility and perseverance, prayer and sacraments, victory is possible.A classic to read over and overAn excellent guide to help one grow deeper into the meaning of good and evil/ victory and vice. Fulton Sheen paints a picture with words that are easy to grasp and take to heart. He helps make sense of disappointment in this life by reminding us that there is more. Its definitely a book to refer to regularly for those times we forget why were even here. Awesome Read!!!Bishop Sheens book was a pleasure to read. He explained the seven deadly sins in a new light. Love the book so much that Ill do a second reading as well. Details ISBN1998229238 Author Fulton J.
