QUESTION 79

OF THE QUASI-INTEGRAL PARTS OF JUSTICE

(In Four Articles)

We must now consider the quasi-integral parts of justice, which are

_to do good,_ and _to decline from evil,_ and the opposite vices.

Under this head there are four points of inquiry:

(1) Whether these two are parts of justice?

(2) Whether transgression is a special sin?

(3) Whether omission is a special sin?

(4) Of the comparison between omission and transgression.
