Dear Kriss, I apologize for the late reply. If this is what you meant when you said what you said, then I agree with you. However, to my ears, "all sins are equal" is as far from indicative of this as "Mother of God" is from meaning that Mary was the mother of God made incarnate in the flesh.However, I would like to add to it perhaps a little bit. I believe that in God's eyes, all sins can be wiped away. However, not all are equal. What I mean here is that a murderer is forgiven just as a fornicator is forgiven, however one has been forgiven more than the other. As for this contrast only existing on judgment day, if that is indeed what you are saying, I once again, slightly disagree. I simply wish to point out that murdering somebody will mar a persons soul, and they will, forgiven or not, have to live with what scars they have during their lifetime. A warrior always carries the scent of blood, so to speak.However, I am relieved to hear that you do not mean that all sins have the same consequence and God is not more displeased with inappropriate sexual thoughts, or inappropriate sexual actions. This is one of those things which some concluded. Though they may once have had a heart for God, this was one of their steps away, followed by many more. In my opinion, this is one of the most dangerous things anyone can ever teach. In my opinion, there is not any way that "all sins are equal". For they have a varied effect on you, they can make living in repentance more or less difficult depending, relations with others can be severed, and God, in the end, forgives more, thus resulting in more love.Instead, I tell people; There is no Sin that God can't forgive. While some would argue that blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is one, I would agree, but never say it that way. I believe that blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is not something a person can do at any point in time. I believe that it is making one self an enemy of God. I apply Jeremiah 18:7-10 to this. I know it's about the nations, however, my study of Matthew, Hebrews, and Nahum has led me to this conclusion.Just the same, I think that, though we are using different words, we, at least basically, agree for once.~Tyrel
