The Seven Heavenly Virtues Bible Novels & Stories

In my defense, I'm doing a service to humanity. I lift my gaze toward my father. "Okay, according to this site, 'Bible Today'—what kind of name is that, anyway?—it says the poor possessed person should be tied up. Apparently, the evil spirit controlling their body—these are the exact words—tends to get violent at the sight of holy water, a cross, or a Bible." I look back at my dad, and we both turn simultaneously toward little Amanda, who’s smiling at us, completely clueless.

The woman I became causes me to cringe. I wore my jealousy, envy, and pain like a cloak. The shroud festered and grew with each joyful mother I glimpsed. I was hyper-focused on what I couldn’t have instead of celebrating what I had. I coveted other mothers, and that’s a sin. I’m not naïve enough to believe I am free of sin, but coveting others... That’s not the real me. I can’t believe how my green-eyed monster fed on my despair, and it grew with each passing day.

He tried to break free of the ropes, but he just couldn’t, but Sage knew that she had to hurry. “Vade, satana, inventor et magister omnis fallaciae, hostis humanae salutis. Humiliare sub potenti manu Dei: contremisce et effuge, invocato a nobis sancto et terribili nomine...queen inferi tremut. Ab insidious diabolic, libera no’s, Domine, Ut Ecclesiam tuam secura tibi facias libertate servire, te roga mus, audi nos.”

"Humility." Once again, the guardian nods, acknowledging Tritan's understanding. Finally, her gaze shifts to Joe, the last member of the party, who is now entrusted with the final challenge. Her voice reverberates through the water, carrying the weight of the merfolk's values. "In depths unknown, where merfolk reside, a virtue cherished, like a rising tide. Not bound by form, nor by birthright, it's the measure of worth, shining so bright. What am I, that guides the merfolk's way, a virtue of value, each passing day?"

“Sitting on the throne of heaven, King of kings, the most merciful Lord, my God, the only one who loves me the most, I thank you for giving me the opportunity to see this day today. Therefore, I pray to you that your name may be considered holy, your kingdom may come. Just as your wish is fulfilled in heaven, so shall it be on earth. Today, give us our whole day’s bread and not bring us to the test, but keep us safe from evil. And if I have committed any offence, by mistake or intentionally, then forgive my offences.”

"We continue to study what the Bible says about Jesus Christ. In Mark 11:24, Jesus says, 'Therefore, I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will all be yours.' Ptr Kris read from the bible, adding, "In Luke 10:3, "Go, I am sending you out like lambs among wolves." Let's also look at verse 18,'I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.' Verse 19,'I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemies; nothing will harm you." “Verse 20 says, ‘However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your name is written in heaven.’ “Ptr Kris continues, "This is the Word of God."

I made the sign of the cross, the familiar gesture a desperate plea for help, and squeezed my eyes shut, willing the image to vanish. Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen. I took another deep breath, forcing myself to calm down, to regain control. I had to do this. Levi was waiting for me. Slowly, cautiously, I opened my eyes, steeling myself for what I knew was coming. A vision of pure, unadulterated temptation greeted me.

It was the hottest thing he’d ever seen. “Say a prayer for me,” he told them, his voice rough. “While I fuck you.” Hannah mumbled against Rebecca’s pussy, “In… in nomine Patris… oh God, yes… et Filii… fuck me deeper!” Rebecca whimpered, “Et Spiritus Sancti… I’m going to cum, Father!”

"Yes OH YES Greg it was amazing." I want you to remember that feeling Chastity because it's time to tell you some more important truths. When you hear them, you'll know they are as true as anything in the Bible because I told them to you. Then you are going to repeat them each seven times because that is the Biblical number of perfection. Each time you repeat them you are going to feel yourself getting closer to experiencing that amazing feeling again and when you reach the seventh time you will explode with that same feeling again. Are you ready for the important truths?"

His fingers traced the next instruction. “Before rebuilding, confront the foundation of lies. Seven spirits hold the city hostage. Each one speaks as truth, but hides decay.” Eliora leaned closer. “What are the seven lies?” The fire on James’s palm flickered, and the words illuminated themselves on the parchment, one by one: 1. Control is love. 2. Fame is favor. 3. Performance is presence. 4. Fear keeps order. 5. Silence is safety. 6. Wealth equals worth. 7. Numbers mean God is near.
