In this episode we discuss Saint Peter as the Rock upon which Christ founded His Church, the lack charity toward one's neighbor and how envy is the root of sin.
- He who does not desire the good of his neighbor, but is envious of him, does not possess the love of his neighbor.
- We call a man envious who merely through ill-will is vexed at the prosperity of another, or rejoices when misfortune overtakes him.
- No sin renders man so much like the devil as envy, for envy is peculiarly the devil's sin.
- Envy is most hurtful to a man; it robs him of inward content and bodily health; it leads to many cruel actions and finally to eternal perdition.
- The best means of overcoming feelings of envy is to do all the good we possibly can to our fellow-men.
- He does not love his neighbor who injures him, whether in regard to his life, his innocence, his property, his honor, or his household.
- Nor does he love his neighbor, who performs no works of mercy.
