The Seven Deadly Sins Moses Kainwo

Mahatma Gandhi, who named the Seven Deadly Sins addressed here, was not a Christian himself. Stephen Covey quotes him as saying, "A person cannot do right in one department whilst attempting to do wrong in another department..." This could be Gandhi's best introduction to the Seven Deadly Sins. This is not a law book for Christians, but the author would like to see the laws of God at work. The deadly sins addressed here are contemporaneous. Like Gandhi, this author does not claim to be above these temptations-only the grace of God can see anyone through the day of moral challenges unscathed. This collection of poems is, therefore, a call to walk the walk of faith with God.
