Thread: Black Sin, Red Sin

Black Sin, Red Sin

Once an Angel came to me in a Dream and lectured me upon the two sorts of Sin (the Angel even came with a chalkboard and a pointer) -- there is the Sin that damns to Hell, and there is the Sin that attaches only to the body and is left behind when the body is left behind. They are called, by the Angels, "Black Sin" and "Red Sin". Black Sin is premeditated evil. Evil done in cold blood. Evil done for profit. The intentional and deliberate schemes to victimize and exploit others is Black Sin. Whereas, crimes of passion and appetite are the Red Sins. the worst that can be said of the Red Sins is that the Souls become habituated and identified with such behaviors -- like a man making a hobby out of sex or gluttony. The soul who leaves the body and transitions toward a spiritual existence will feel lost if all of its priorities had been aligned around these bodily appetites. These Desires, though without physical organs for their gratification, will retain ghost like remnants – thought forms – which are too dense for the Light of Heaven to pierce without absorbing it as Heat. With its Desires aimed at the Physical, such a Soul will feel no pull from the Spiritual, and will seem as though too heavy to rise to the Spiritual. It is in Purgatory that the Body Habits of the Red Sins are shed and dispensed with so that the Soul can be Etherealized sufficiently to allow it to rise, no longer scorched, by the Light of God in Heaven.

We can see how certain Catholic Practices incline toward speeding up the process of diminishing the Red Sins. Catholics are encouraged to entirely discontinue sins of passion and appetite. Fasts are common, and in the Religious Orders, celibacy is insisted upon. It is only because of Paulist Misdoctrine that carnality is demanded of the Laity.

When the strength of appetites and passions are beyond the power of the Will to contain them, than remorse, repentance, and atonement are expected. It is hoped that by this, that after death, the Soul will gladly let these appetites simply fall away and not clutch at them to retain their ghosts.

What makes the Black Sins so much more adhesive? Well, Sins of the body drop off with the body, but deliberate sins conjured by the Mind and encouraged by the Will come from higher faculties that approach too closely to the core of our Spirit. Yes, there could still be some Purification, theoretically… but if a Souls Mind and Will need to be swept entirely clean, that WHAT exactly would be left? When just the Red Sins of Appetite and Passion need to be purged, while the Mind and the Will are already in accordance with the Ways of Heaven, then we can see that God could permit such Acceptable Individuality and Uniqueness of Character whole into Heaven. But if the Mind and Will of Black Sin have to be extracted, then Heaven could only gain what would have all the appearances of a Zombie, what we could refer to as ‘damaged goods’.
