Re: Are there little sins?

The word "sin" itself may be 3 letters long, thus making it a small word. But, there should never be a measure placed on how little or big sin is.

No matter how we justify what we've done wrong, if whatever it is goes directly against God's word, it's sin. Sin is sin...

But, something worth being reminded of: grace is grace. And God is God. He's our ultimate Judge of whom we all shall answer to, either sooner or later. If sin is repented of, we're forgiven no matter how "big" or "small" it is...

Why not? What's wrong with saying murder is worse than adultery, or stealing a car is worse than stealing a candy bar?

Well, Timmy, I'd say because, even as much as we profess our faith, we've become such a counter-Biblical world with our own definition of what sin is, let alone justifying what we've done.

I think social acceptability has crept into the picture a little too much. But, as I said before, God is the ultimate Judge. I'll let Him deal with sin according to His word, trust that He'll forgive when asked for it, and extend grace from there...

If you really mean what you say, I suppose you would have no preference over whether I lie to you or shoot you.
