Deadly sin that is Sloth.
None of us are meant to be lazy, we are meant to labor and work, and if none of us provides for themselves or their household, they are worse than an unbeliever.
“But his lord answered and said to him, ‘You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed. So you ought to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I would have received back my own with interest. So take the talent from him, and give it to him who has ten talents. - Matthew 25:26-28.
For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat. - 2 Thessalonians 3:10.
But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. - 1 Timothy 5:8.
He who is slothful in his work is a brother to him who is a great destroyer. - Proverbs 18:9.
Laziness casts one into a deep sleep, and an idle person will suffer hunger. - Proverbs 19:15.
The desire of the lazy man kills him, for his hands refuse to labor. He covets greedily all day long, but the righteous gives and does not spare. - Proverbs 21:25-26.
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. - Romans 6:23.
