All but one. The Bible says there is one unforgivable sin - blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. They affect us differently on earth, but in the end, the wages of any sin is death to those who do not repent and accept Christ as their savior.

Youare absolutely right. Branding people sinners is the greatest sin!  What follows is a quotation from a related article I wrote some time ago. \n\nJesus had a radically different view of right and wrong. In order to do right, one should know what is right. God is the only one who knows everything, and therefore, only God can be absolutely right in every situation. Thus only God can be righteous. All humans are unrighteous because they do not have all knowledge of everything as God does. It is human nature to err.  Jesus stated this plainly once when someone asked him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit the eternal life?”  Jesus answered, “ Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone.” (Mk10:17-18).\n\nIf only God is righteous, it would be senseless to divide people into righteous and unrighteous.  That is why Jesus treated all people alike whereas the Pharisees kept themselves away from those they called sinners. Jesus was a friend of the “sinners” and the tax collectors. Jesus was willing to talk to them, eat with them, and live with them. One day when Jesus was at the home of a Pharisee, a woman (who was a sinner in their eyes) came in, sat at his feet, and washed his feet with her tears of repentance. This was shocking to the Pharisee because he couldn’t even imagine such a woman touching him publicly.

You've got it mixed up. This is the actual scripture:\n\nFor God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.\n\nNowhere does it say God killed Jesus.\n\nGod gave his Son to the people to show His eternal Love for us. \n\nThe misguided people killed Jesus.

I want to pay for the stuff that I get.  Isn't there a verse in the Bible that says, "Thou (that means YOU!) shalt (Old English for "shall") NOT STEAL"?\n\nIt's a wonder that I never got caught for shoplifting when I was growing up.  It's just not worth the risk to your future.  Plus it is just WRONG!!!

Hi Rodney. Good evening/day.Very good subject! First of all, in case anyone does not know what sin is, let's define it.  Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. or MKJV- Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness, for sin is lawlessness-1John 3:4. Myself included, we need to ensure that we know what sin is so that we can be sincerely repentant and strive to not commit sins. You are correct everyone sins, that is why Jesus - the perfect Son of God who was sinless died for our sins and rose from the dead. Second, the word rapture is not in the Bible. Jesus will return to raise the dead and claim those of us who are saved. John 3:13 says  -And no one has ascended up to Heaven except He who came down from Heaven, the Son of Man who is in Heaven. May God Bless  you.

God does not love one person more than another. It doesn't really matter if what the person did was a million times worst than what the other person did. God is no respector of persons. Once your sins are wiped away by the blood of Jesus, then you don't have to feel any kind of fear or guilt. Take care.

Nope God is not evil.He does not temp good with evil nor can he be evil.Satan is the first person that was evil.Evil is the same thing as sin.Being evil is disobeying God.Their was no evil when it was just God.Only after satan fell and tried to control man and make them evil.

(resounding amen coming from a fellow believer)\nThat was beautiful sister, i really am so glad someone did this, anyway i really hope people can read this with out opininionated ideals and theology. God is God and who are we to define who he is. My point is we are so caught up in our selfishness and selfcenteredness, we reject proper biblical teaching. remember the enemy comes to steal, murder and destroy, but Christ came to redeem us.\nand again AMEN!!!!!!

Thas not true.  I am neither one of those but I can tell you that God says no sin is greater than the other.  Wether you murder your parents or do a man when your a man thats still sin to him and every soul may seek forgiveness.  You may not be correct in your actions, you may not follow all the laws of god, but you can still believe.  God says that taking the same sex to bed together is a sin and he also says that gossip is a sin but nine out of ten times i bet you do that, so what makes you or anyone else better than the other.  If you are gay or a lesbain, to me, that is your sin, you will answer to god just like me for my sins.  Which is greater?  How can god put a scale on how bad you hurt him?  A sin is just that, a sin to god.  Worldly pleasures are just worldly pleasures.  Just try and live your life as correct as possible for god and it shouldn't matter if you're gay or a lesbain.  Just let him know you believe and ask him to live in your heart.  If you truely except him than the lord will help you discover who he has planned for you to love.

I understand what you are saying.Some people do not want to offend. For example, in a class of 35 students, maybe five will be from a home with married parents.Some immoral people defend their action by saying that all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.Whether you lie,steal, murder fornicate,commit murder, adultery or homosexual acts, all is sin and intolerable to God. When a person recognizes his/her sinful condition and is convicted,there is repentance.People like those who will overlook their faults, so they do not like to listen to sound doctrine.Besides,many believe the Ten Commandments went out with the Old Testament and we are in a new dispensation or the New Testament.This is why it is important to know what you believe and be an example of the believer in thought,words and action.

All sins are the same in gods book....although i think some are greater than others..like killing, adultery, etc. I would say casue someone to hate because it is like an epidemic...take the KKK for instance...they are so blind they just take what the Clan leader tells em....the rivalry between them and otehr races is so old they have just believed the sterotype, puzzled together reasons that they think supports the sterotype and i think they dont even know the roots of there hattride lol.

Adam was a perfect huiman being.  When he (and Eve) sinned against God, he (Adam) passed his sin down to the entire human race.  \n\nJesus' death paid for our sins because his blood was the right "price":  perfect. \n\nPerfect blood brought us down, and therefore only perfect blood could redeem us\n\nAnd no, it's not "fair", it's loving, and it was necessary, because we were not capable of doing it ourselves.  And people who truly accept Jesus' sacrifice will desire to please God, not take advantage of his mercy.  God can read hearts.  He knows who is sincere and who is merely trying to get away with something.\n\n(btw...i think that was a great question)

Dude, if you would have read two verses earlier, you would have answered your own question:\n\n 18"As for his father, because he practiced extortion, robbed his brother and did what was not good among his people, behold, he will die for his iniquity. \n\n 19"Yet you say, 'Why should the son not bear the punishment for the father's iniquity?' When the son has practiced justice and righteousness and has observed all My statutes and done them, he shall surely live. \n\n 20"The person who sins will die The son will not bear the punishment for the father's iniquity, nor will the father bear the punishment for the son's iniquity; the righteousness of the righteous will be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked will be upon himself.

No, absolutely not, sweetheart.\nOnce you love someone, it couldn't be a sin. I mean, don't be promiscuous.\n\nHate people is a sin. Kill somebody is a sin. Envy is a terrible sin. War is a big big sin. Gossip is a sin.\n\nThe gender doesn't matter, God want us to love each other. A love stronger than racism, larger than life. \n\nStay cool!!!

Proof that our "friend" is a hypocrite and a mental case, see above.\n\nI ask myself every time I read the Bible, what does this mean FOR me.

This is a sin. See what the Bible has to say about it:\n\nRomans 12:19\nDearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.\n\nHebrews 10:30\nFor we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord.\n\n1 Peter 3:9\nnot returning evil for evil or insult for insult, but giving a blessing instead; for you were called for the very purpose that you might inherit a blessing.\n\nRomans 12:14\nBless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. \n\nLuke 6:28\nbless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.
