In his description of the reality and the consequences of Capital sin, St. John spoke with evocative eloquence. Using metaphor, imagery and analogy in conformity with the Christian system of values, enabled him to rationalize the underlying motives of human behavior. The quality of his analysis and his gift of rhetoric and eloquence were outstanding.
