MORTAL SIN OF IMPURITY
(Internal)
1.-Delayed complacency or voluntary delight in the imagination of an impure sin.
2.-Rejoicing in sins of impurity already committed; regretting not having profited from sinning.
3.-Ineffective desires or voluntary desires to carry out an impure act.
4.-Effective desires are voluntary decisions to carry out an impure action even if for whatever reason it is not carried out.
"Note that this crime (impurity) is the one that drags the greatest number of souls to Hell.
Saint Remigius assures us that the majority of the damned are so because of this sin. Father Señeri, following Saint Bernard (T. 4, Serm. 21), and Saint Isidore (L. 2, sent., c. 39) are of the same opinion. Saint Thomas says that this sin is very pleasing to the devil, because he who falls into this dunghill of Hell remains stuck there and can hardly get up.
This vice takes away even the light, and the sinner becomes so blind that he almost forgets God, says Saint Lawrence Justinian. (De lib. vit., Os., v, 4.) He does not know God, he no longer obeys God or reason; he only obeys the voice of the senses, which drags him to act like a brute."
Like every mortal sin, the sin of impurity removes the Sanctifying Grace of the soul and puts it in danger of being damned, unless it repents (contrition and purpose of amendment) and accuses its sins to the Confessor or makes a perfect act of contrition FOR THE LOVE OF GOD with the intention of confessing as soon as possible and not sinning again. In order to receive Communion, Sacramental Confession is necessary, because otherwise a very serious sacrilege is committed and whoever does so "eats and drinks his own damnation," as the Apostle Saint Paul teaches.
