Booklet 9 of 12 from a series of talks given by Priest Daniel Sysoev entitled “How to Inherit Eternal Life.”

The sin of envy is one of the three sins belonging to Satan himself. The apostle Paul says that there is no place for an envious person in the Kingdom of God. No other passion so destructive to a person is spawned in the human soul. Despondency—or, as it is called in the world, depression—is a sin that is very widespread today and a great boon to the pharmaceutical industry. Yet from Holy Scripture we know that one sign of the end times will be a rise in this pernicious passion. In this booklet you will find the antidote for these two passions.
