4th Commandment

[Hoosier_Daddy]

I have read the commandment. You make excuses for violating God’s law, rather than changing your behavior.

I believe you would be surprised at how many things we do are a sin but yet aren’t explicitly printed in the CCC excluding the narrative of the first commandment.

Thanks for your judgement. I will be certain to examine my conscience. You however are beyond the scope of the Catholic Church. You are absolutely wrong.

This is your thread. It has been shown that it is no sin. If you wish to condemn it as such, then you need to provide proof.
I suspect you may either have issues with scrupulosity or have been influenced by some outside of the Church teachings. Hopefully you have a good spiritual adviser that can help you.

I believe you are making excuses for putting off things until Sunday.

Not to pile on, but where do you get that idea? No one is putting off things until Sunday. What’s merely being asked is if it would be a sin for a son to help his father on Sunday.

If your mother’s plumbing backed up on Sunday, would you put it off until Monday?

It’s not an idea, it is a commandment. The Father shouldn’t be working on Sunday either, and is engaged in scandal if he does. Any reasonable individual would understand the difference between an emergency such as a plumbing problem that came about on Sunday from a problem that could have been foregone by proper planning around the Lord’s day.

More than likely, the individual that plans around the Lord’s day would be blessed with working plumbing and would face no emergency.

Sounds like you have it all figured out. As I said before, I hope your sense of morality extends further than this issue. I don’t think this is going to be productive any further. Good luck to you.
