Are all sins equal in the eyes of God ? If so , Adolf Hitler was as big a sinner as everyone else here ?

Matthew 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil (Establish).  or to destroy it if him fulfulling the Law and you not having to do it anymore to me that is destroying the Law!  He came to fully execute (an office), finish (a period or task), verify (or coincide with a prediction), etc.:--accomplish, X after, (be) complete, end, expire, fill (up), fulfil, (be, make) full (come), FULLY PREACH (The Laws), perfect, supply. (Strongs greek dictionary)\n\n18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.  \n19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.\n \n\nI Yahchanan 3:4—\nWhoever commits sin, transgresses also the Law; for sin is the transgression of the Law. \n\nSo christianity how can the Laws be done away with?\n\nJerm 17:10 And then come and stand before Me in this House upon which My Name is called, and say; We are saved! Saved to do all these abominations?\n\n\nDon't be like Hitler, Keep the Laws of Yahweh!

I read all these responses and I'm stunned.\nPerhaps the problem is ... I'm not a Liberal.\nI am a student of history, however ... and GWB could not possibly be compared to Hitler.  To do so actually lessens and trivializes the evil that was Hitler.  I understand that some people hate GWB ... that's their prerogative ... I understand the arguments and the passion behind those opinions ... but comparing GWB to Hitler and actually BELIEVING Hitler would be a better "choice" only shows that some peoples' opinions are not based on knowledge and reason but, instead, on words they believe have shock value and effect ... much like Hitlers Ministery of Propaganda.  Until now, I never made the connection ... I guess Hitler was Liberal and this would explain the predominance of the answers to this question.  Hitler was a genocidal, drug-addicted madman who believed in occultism and the superiority of one "race" over others (whether or not they were German) and their birth-right to maim, rape, murder, torture and destroy a peoples because they claimed they were less than human.  Regardless of the arguments against GWB ... he has not lead a proganda campaign to brainwash adults and formed youth-groups of children to convince them that "all Muslims" are less than human and must all be destroyed.   Hate GWB if you choose ... but don't be so proud of your ignorance to compare him to Hitler ... shame on you.

In my religion,{Christian, Baptist} God forgives all if they bow their heads in prayer and ask for forgivness and sincerely mean it that they are sorry for their actions one sin is just as bad as the other.

yes but they think in the word sin as a diffrent way we do because they think a sin is to not be muslim and they want the world to be muslim because they are following hitlers foot steps!! Scary HUH?

Luther. This antisemitic dogma was then used by Hitler to justify his atrocities.\n\n"For thus says the LORD of hosts: 'He sent Me after glory, to the nations which plunder you; for he who touches you touches the apple of His eye.'"

Well, just to help you a little here, Hitler did not believe in Jesus.  He felt Christianity was weak and didn't want his power being challenged by religious authorities.  (If the basis of your question is, "Is it alright to kill those who don't agree with you?" I hope you know the answer already.) \n\nHitler wanted to exterminate every Jew on earth, not change their minds.  His reasons for killing Jews (which is part of what makes the Holocaust so remarkable) had nothing to do with their beliefs.  It was all about their birth, and many secular and converted Jews were murdered alongside their orthodox counterparts.\n\nYou should really read up more on the holocaust.  It is possibly the worst thing in human history, and the only thing we can do to prevent something similar is to know how it happened the first time.\n\nP.S.- Here's the really tough question you might want to ponder; After ordering the murder of twelve million innocents and waging a wart to conquer the earth, if Hitler had recanted on his death bed, would G-d have forgiven him.

good question.\n\n\nHere is the good answer.\n\nHe made man perfect, man chose sin, man brought upon himself and his posterity flawed sin nature.\n\n\nGod provides us a choice, to choose Christ and be forgiven, or to choose evil and stay flawed for eternity.\n\n\nMan makes his choices, God judges.\n\nWithout that there would be no justice-\n\nimagine a world where Hitler and Mother Tereisa have the same fate,\n\nNo justice...\n\nBut that is not true, God is just, the evil men will get what they chose (hell), the saved will be spared and shown mercy and love forever.

There is something you have to consider, Hitler committed suicide\n\nSuicides—A Resurrection?\n\nTHE tragic news of a suicide does not close a chapter in the lives of relatives and friends; it opens one—a chapter of mixed feelings of pity and anger, sorrow and guilt. And it raises the question: May we entertain any hope for our friend who took his or her life?\n\nAlthough self-inflicted death is never justified, never righteous, the apostle Paul did hold out a beautiful hope for even some unrighteous ones. As he told a Roman court of law: “I have hope toward God . . . that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.”—Acts 24:15. \nMany theologians have long dismissed any suggestion that the resurrection of the unrighteous might offer hope for those who commit suicide. Why?\n\nCenturies ago, churchmen introduced a non-Biblical concept: immortal souls that leave the body at death and go straight to heaven, purgatory, Limbo, or hell. That concept clashed with the Bible’s clear teaching of a future resurrection. As Baptist minister Charles Andrews asked: “If the soul is already blissfully in heaven (or is already justifiably roasting in hell), what need is there for anything further?” He added: “This inner contradiction has remained to plague Christians throughout the centuries.”\n\nOne result of such errant theology was that “since Augustine’s time [354-430 C.E.], the church has condemned suicide as a sin,” says Arthur Droge in the Bible Review, “a sin beyond redemption, just like apostasy and adultery.”\n\nJesus told a criminal sentenced to death: “You will be with me in Paradise.” The man was unrighteous—a lawbreaker rather than a distraught suicide victim—guilty by his own frank admission. (Luke 23:39-43) He had no hope of going to heaven to rule with Jesus. So the Paradise in which this thief could hope to come back to life would be the beautiful earth under the rule of Jehovah God’s Kingdom.—Matthew 6:9, 10; Revelation 21:1-4.\n\nFor what purpose will God awaken this criminal? So that He mercilessly can hold his past sins against him? Hardly, for Romans 6:7, 23 says: “He who has died has been acquitted from his sin,” and “the wages sin pays is death.” Although his past sins will not be accounted to him, he will still need the ransom to lift him to perfection.\n\nOnly God can fully understand the role of mental sickness, extreme stress, even genetic defects, in a “suicidal crisis,” which, the National Observer noted, “is not a lifetime characteristic [but] often a matter only of minutes or of hours.”\nGranted, one who takes his own life deprives himself of the opportunity to repent of his self-murder. But who can say whether one driven to suicide might have had a change of heart had his fatal attempt failed? Some notorious murderers have, in fact, changed and earned God’s forgiveness during their lifetime.\nThus, Jehovah, having paid “a ransom in exchange for many,” His Son, is within his right to extend mercy, even to some self-murderers, by resurrecting them and giving them the precious opportunity to “repent and turn to God by doing works that befit repentance.”\n\nThe Scriptures encourage us to see ourselves, not as immortal souls, but as valuable creations of the God who loves us, who treasures our being alive, and who looks forward with joy to the time of the resurrection.\n\n4000 years had passed from Adam & Eve, Jesus said to a Religious Leader that no one had gone to Heaven, and millions of people had passed away in death. This is a quote from the King James Bible: \n\nJohn 3:13 " And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven," \nit seems to me, this would eliminate the "immortal soul" belief, not only that, if you go to Heaven or Hell when you die, you completely do away with the resurrection that the Bible speaks about, because the resurrection is suppose to take plac

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...

It's very comforting to say that "God loves us all so much that He will save us all"; or "He hates the sin, but loves the sinner"; or "God is love, and will not send anyone to hell."  \n     \n     I must admit, it is nice to think of God's love being so infinitely great that all will ultimately be saved.  Hell is a terrible place and I don't want anyone to go there.   But it does not matter what I think.  It matters what the Bible says.\n     God is love (1 John 4:8), but God also punishes the sinner and hates all who do iniquity.  God is not one sided.  He is not simply an infinitely loving God.  He is also infinitely just.  He must deal with sin.  He must punish the sinner.\n\n Well? Does God hate anyone?  The answer is yes.\n\n      Psalm 5:5, "The boastful shall not stand before Thine eyes; Thou dost hate all who do iniquity,\n\n      Psalm 11:5, "The Lord tests the righteous and the wicked, and the one who loves violence His soul hates."\n\n      Lev. 20:23, "Moreover, you shall not follow the customs of the nation which I shall drive out before you, for they did all these things, and therefore I have abhorred them."\n\n      Prov. 6:16-19, "There are six things which the Lord hates, yes, seven which 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 run rapidly to evil,\nA false witness who utters lies, and one who spreads strife among brothers.\n\n\n      Hosea 9:15, "All their evil is at Gilgal; indeed, I came to hate them there!  Because of the wickedness of their deeds I will drive them out of My house! I will love them no more; All their princes are rebels." \n\n     Are these verses hard to read?  \nDo they make you feel uncomfortable?  \nDoes this sound harsh?\nMaybe you don't think your sins are that big a deal. God does.\nGod hates sin.  But, He does not punish sin.  He punishes the sinner.  Sin cannot be tied up and thrown into a fire.  It cannot be put in a box or glued to a stick.  \nIt is rebellion.  It is rebellion in the heart.  It is breaking God's Law.\n\nSo what standard will God use to decide our guilt or innocence?\nThe 10 Commandments. The bible says that they are like a mirror to show us what we are...horrible sinners to the core.\nWhen we see the standard; "Don't lie, Don't steal, Honor your parents, Love God with all of your heart soul mind and strength".\n\nGo to this website to take the test and find out how you'll do on the day of judgment...\n\nwww.needgod.com\n\nbob

That is good, I feel the same way. Although I do meditate on a mountain, but I do it for myself and not everyone needs to do anything like it. I like the part about the bomb and school kids, I also believe in a "God" that forgiving. I believe that God is "love" and if you take the "love" out of God, God will become obsolete. So there is no way that "love" can hate enough even to "hurt" Hitler.

Oh, I hear you on this one.  Of all the people on this earth, Christians are the most judgemental of all.  And, I was raised in the Christian church and it was always said that we should never judge, that only God can judge.  A person's sins are between them and God.  But, so many Christians forget this in their daily life.  It was also taught to me that all sins are equal, that is murder is just as bad as, say, swearing.  So, you are also right to question why homosexuality is so very bad in their eyes.  The hypocrisy is why I have fallen away, I just couldn't deal with it anymore.  I still believe in a God of sorts, but I will not subscribe to any organized religion.  It makes people crazy.

Nope.  \n\nGod is a perfect God and Judge.  With our imperfect eyes it is very difficult to see this concept.  \n\nSome people think some acts are sin and others think that those same acts are not.  Well, it doesn't matter what we think--we don't get to vote on it.\n\nSome people don't think homosexuality is a sin.  Some people don't think lying is a sin.  Some people don't think theft is a sin.  \n\nEven John Dillinger saw himself as a simple man, doing only what he could do.  Al Capone saw himself as a public servant and man of the people.  And I am quite sure that the guys who flew the planes into the World Trade Center were convinced that what they were doing was right.\n\nIt's not about what _we_ think is right and wrong, and it's not about what _we_ think is better or worse or not so bad.\n\nIt's about what God, the Supreme Judge, has told us.

Hitler did not all of a sudden say, 'Hey, lets band everyone together by hating Jews.' The hatred of Jews in Europe goes all the way back to the time it became Christian. Passages in the Christian's New Testament paint "The Jews" as being the children of the devil, hypocritical, and interested only in money rather than in Gd. \n\nWho wrote the following???\n\n"""But since I learned that those miserable and accursed people do not cease to lure to themselves even us, that is, the Christians, I have published this little book, so that I might be found among those who opposed such poisonous activities of the Jews and who warned the Christians to be on their guard against them....Now, in order to strengthen our faith, we want to deal with a few crass follies of the Jews in their belief and their exegesis of the Scriptures, since they so maliciously revile our faith. If this should move any Jew to reform and repent, so much the better. We are now not talking with the Jews but about the Jews and their dealings, so that our Germans, too, might be informed....Our Lord also calls them a "brood of vipers"; furthermore, in John' 3:39 he states: "If you were Abraham's children would do what Abraham did.... You are of your father the devil." It was intolerable to them to hear that they were not Abraham's but the devil's children, nor can they bear to hear this today.... For they are a heavy burden, a plague, a pestilence, a sheer misfortune for our country. Proof for this is found in the fact that they have often been expelled forcibly from a country, far from being held captive in it....Therefore be on your guard against the Jews, knowing that wherever they have their synagogues, nothing is found but a den of devils in which sheer self-glory, conceit, lies, blasphemy, and defaming of God and men are practiced most maliciously and veheming his eyes on them.......but then eject them forever from this country. For, as we have heard, God's anger with them is so intense that gentle mercy will only tend to make them worse and worse, while sharp mercy will reform them but little. Therefore, in any case, away with them!"""\n\nIt was Martin Luther, one of the founders of the Protestant movement in Christianity!

Hitler said this.  However, by the way you ask the question, I inferred that you mean to attack christianity.  Hitler has no comparison to Christ.

If Hitler had believed in Jesus and was a true follower of Christ he wouldn't have murdered millions of Jews, Socialists and Gays. He wouldn't have sent people to war, he wouldn't have violated every commandment there is... he was a kind of Anti-Christ and if he goes to heaven, I'd volunteer for hell.

Christian mythology is obviously not for the peacefull kind. This religion is a form of war...Kill everyone that's an indiviual I say. Hitler has nothing on god. What about old Bin Laden...ha ha ha! god make bin laden look like mother tarisa!
