Title: Being provoked and being led into sin Post by: Therese on April 26, 2014, 03:23:11 PM How does one know when one has been provoked by another person? How does one know when one has been led into sin (e.g. anger, disrespect) by another person?

Surely if you have been provoked you just know it by how you feel within you or by your reaction. If you have sinned, you will know that as well because we know what sin is. If you are not sure if you have sinned then it is very unlikely that you have in fact sinned; but it would be wise to prayerfully examine your conscience to find out if you have sinned.

Besides mean teasing and dressing and behaving immodestly, how can one lead another into sin?
