Seventh: You shall not commit adultery - Page 4

SUMMARY

1. Temperance means self-control – being the master and not the slave of our body and its wants.

2. Soberness in the Catechism means steady conduct, for example, behaving in an orderly way in the street.

3. Chastity means purity in thought, word and deed.  Our Lady is the perfect human pattern of purity.
