Theological Theses · §1147

Vicious habits from past sins still incline the pious

Remitted past sins still leave vicious habits that boost inborn corruption and push even the pious toward fresh sins.

Grace slowly deletes those habits but does not yet fully uproot them.

Latin

XIX. Adde quod ingenitam istam corruptionem in ipsis quoque piis augent habitus vitiosi, per peccata anteacta, & jam remissa contracti; qui paulatim quidem per Christi gratiam delentur atque abolentur: sed tamen non sunt penitus exstirpati, ac propterea non desinunt fideles ad varia peccata inclinare atque impellere.
