Man and Sin by Piet Schoonenberg (1964) 2.3 AG

[A particular sinful act may be forgotten, but sinful attitudes remain. The sinful act substantiates the sinner’s normal context. The act habituates the sinner’s potential.

This will be reflected in the way the person recites what is good and what is bad.

As the human acts and thinks, the entire intersecting nested form alters.

As actions and thoughts emerge from and situate possibilities, the possibilities become more and more pronounced.

The dispositions become trained.

The conscience becomes more specified. I label this consciencespecified.

Murder emerges from and situates the attitude of hatred.

Impurity emerges from and situates the attitude of narcissism.]
