Is there any one sin that is lesser or greater than the other? Are all sins created equal?

I would say that they are all equal  but one... Jesus said that anyone who blasphemes the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven.\n\nMark 3:28-30\n28I tell you the truth, all the sins and blasphemies of men will be forgiven them. 29But whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven; he is guilty of an eternal sin." \n\n 30He said this because they were saying, "He has an evil spirit."

Mother Teresa was a sinner just like the rest of us...even the Pope goes to Confession!\n\nUnlike me, and perhaps most everybody else, she was probably more keenly aware of her everyday failings such as impatience with others, lack of charity to some, or her failure to love God as much as possible.\n\nI imagine that most of her sins seemed trivial as viewed by God when compared to others, but a sin is a sin.\n\nThe only human who was ever sinless was Jesus. Until we're able to claim equality with Jesus (God), we'll always have sins to confess...

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.

We are all equal in God's eyes, no one is perfect, everybody has sinned, so therefore we are all sinners. Fortunately Jesus died (and rose again) to take our sins

Sin is not defined by man (monyet_lu2002). Sin is defined by God. It is disobedience to His will.\n\nMan can't serve 2 masters. If one loves God with all his heart, all his mind, all his soul, all his strength, God will be his Lord. The person  will still be an imperfect human who sins, but his lifestyle will not be sinful.\n\nIt is the effectiveness of the Great Deceiver to convince some to choose a sinful way of life.

i beg to differ with the answerer, the only sin that cannot be forgiven is not accepting Christ, [contrary] the word itself says in mark 3;28 [plain and simple, then compare 1 john 1;9 except blaspheme against the holy spirit [only 1]\nacts 5;3-11\nmatt 12;31\nluke 12;10 woe unto the man/woman that does such a thing, that's why people need to be careful when answering or asking vain stuff concerning God, i would leae it alone if it is not positive, hell danger, besides 1 cor.2;16-13;12   eph 9;12 let this be your schooling, don't be offended because God said in james 1;5 and here we go, now ya know

flatlinzreborn is right. The first sin was disobeying God. Regardless of what that fruit was.

No.\n\nSin is a deliberate thought, word, deed, or omission contrary to the eternal law of God. \n\nIn other words, sin is anything that hurts your relationship with God.\n\nSin is a personal act. Moreover, we have a responsibility for the sins committed by others when we cooperate in them:\n- by participating directly and voluntarily in them;\n- by ordering, advising, praising, or approving them;\n- by not disclosing or not hindering them when we have an obligation to do so;\n- by protecting evil-doers.\n\nWith love in Christ.

God's goodness demands that He punish evil. But it does not restrict Him from taking that punishment upon Himself, in the form of His only Begotten Son, the Messiah Jesus.\n\nHowever, if you only want to continue in your sins, there is no point in bringing you to Heaven, where there is no sin (Revelation 21:8, 22:11; John 3:16-21).

The Bible says that God does not differentiate between sins.  To God, stealing a pack of gum is the same as killing a person.  God sees this as being a sin, and the punishment for every sin, small or large, is the same, death.  (People created a system for judging sins as being worse than others, not God)  But instead of forcing us to sacrifice or die for our sins, God sent Jesus to die for ALL of our sins.  Hope this helps.

The 7 deadly sins are a man made construction. Every sin is deadly if it hasn't been paid for by faith in the blood of Christ. However, if you want to find a list of 7 sins in the Bible, not the man made one, here it is.\n\nProverbs 6:16  There are six things that the LORD hates, seven that are an abomination to him:  (17)  haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,  (18)  a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil,  (19)  a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers.

I do not think so..I believe that there is no sin in this world that cannot be forgiven..as long as you believe in yourself that you are repenting for those sins..and even so..The big man above is really forgiving and he loves us all no matter what..

The seven deadly sins are found more in European literature instead of Biblical scripture. I hardly think God will put you on a weight scale and let anyone under 180 pounds into heaven.

No.\nChildren are born sinless and pure.

I believe Blaspheme of the Holy Spirit is the only unforgiveable sin. Aside from that, there may be a more horrible sin than another eg. Murder is more horrible than getting drunk. But all sin sepperates you from God and all can be forgiven, just the reprocussions they bring about are worse than others.

a sin is something (a belief or action) that seperates us from God. the Bible, which is Gods word, teaches that people are not reborn and that there is a heaven and a hell. believing otherwise is contradictory to what God has told us, so that would seperate us from him. so yes.
