Are the seven deadly sins in the bible?

Or is that just something from literature that sounds cool. I’m looking for actual passages from the bible listing them and calling them the deadly sins.

Yes, and no. While examples can be found of Dr.s betraying their oaths, most doctors stay within their profession. Although no examples of things "called" the seven deadly sins had been found, the public didn’t embrace them. Although, by making them into dwarfs, it seemed to sooth the audiences trouble mind.

    No, but they are outlined indirectly. Greed, sloth, gluttony, pride, etc.

  9. Proverbs 6:16-19 declares, “There are six things the LORD hates, seven that are detestable to him: 1) haughty eyes, 2) a lying tongue, 3) hands that shed innocent blood, 4) a heart that devises wicked schemes, 5) feet that are quick to rush into evil, 6) a false witness who pours out lies, and 7) a man who stirs up dissension among brothers.”

  10. In the Catholic bible – yes.
    In other Bibles (which have bits missing and or changed for political reasons) – no.
    After all, the King James Bible was written to support King James ( and any other British monarch’s) divine right to rule, and be God’s appointed representative on earth. The two ideas clash.

    It may be that Evagrius Ponticus, a 4th century monk, first wrote about them, in their currently accepted form, as a result of his theological studies, and they have been included since then.

  11. There are no sins in the Bible called "seven deadly sins". That is only a catholic false teaching. Catholicism cannot get anyone into heaven.

    The truth is that all sins are forgiven, when the person believes in Jesus, who paid for all of our sins.

    Jesus is God and is the Messiah! Jesus died on the cross to pay for all of our sins, and Jesus rose again from the dead. Jesus is indeed the only way to heaven, so to be in heaven, believe in Jesus, trust in Jesus alone, and you are going to heaven, Jesus then has a mansion in heaven for you!
