As virtudes e os dons do Espírito Santo | Pregação | 40 Dias com São Miguel Arcanjo 2025 | #09

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen. We are meditating on the book The Faith Explained, a wonderful book, a

catechetical book. And today we are going to talk about the virtues and gifts of the Holy Spirit. We're on page 132, or rather, 133. 133. For those following along with the book, page 133. My friends, as I've already explained to you, each sermon is a chapter in a book. And today's chapter is as long as

last time. Chapter 9 was very long, and chapter 10 was no less so. This book is very didactic, very in-depth, and it explains, it wants to explain detail by detail. So, I ask for your patience in advance, because the sermon is a bit long, okay? I don't know how many hours it will take, I'll try to make as

few comments as possible, but I'm warning you now that it's a long sermon. the virtues and gifts of the Holy Spirit. The first question we're going to ask ourselves is: what is virtue? What is virtue? I could ask you this: are you virtuous? Are you virtuous? If you asked him this question, his

modesty would make him answer: No, not especially. And yet, if you are baptized and live in a state of sanctifying grace, you possess the three highest virtues. So, if you are baptized, you are in a state of grace, you live the highest virtues that exist. What are they? The divine virtues of faith, hope, and

charity. Brother, sister, these are the three most important virtues in our lives: faith, hope, and charity. If he committed a mortal sin, he would lose the charity or love of God. Mortal sin is proof that I do not love God. Therefore, I lose charity, but I would still have faith and hope. How interesting!
