Sin is sin. Some may carry grave penalties though, while others may carry little penalties. Eg someone that steals and is caught can go to PRISON and if he is ARMED he may even be EXECUTED based on NIGERIAN LAW.

Fornication may not carry such penalties but it's still a sin.

Sinning against the HOLY SPIRIT is an UNFORGIVABLE SIN according to the BIBLE.

The same consequences await those who die in sin, any sin. Does that explain it? undecided

Do not play that way oh, for little drops of water will still create a flood!

However, small offences dey and grievous offences dey.

But it is Seen dat dis Mata dey change, for something wey be small offence fit be Big Offence tomo9 and something set be big offence today fit be small offence tomorrow.

Na the Person wey dey Offended, Na Him dey Choose and determine which is which.

So it is better to not commit any offence at All as the Bible has counseled!

Sin is Sin as someone else here has already said. This is agreed. In the eyes of God, all sinners must die and go to hell, but the punishment in hell is different. Suffering levels in hell differs. There are compartments for fornicators, killers etc.

All sins are not Equal. The person that stole 100 naira is clearly different from the person that have sinned against the holy spirit

All sins are not equal on Earth but the same in eternity. Fornication may give you HIV, anger will not give you HIV. But Fornication and Anger will take you to hell...

From the Bible, it is said that the wages of sin is death. This tells us that no matter how one classifies sin, they are equal in the eyes of God but may not be equal in the eyes of man.

Criticizing the government is also a sin according to bible.
as lord has said we should obey and respect the law and the government of the day.
so christians dont commit sin ,when judgement day comes ,they wont be salvation to you and heaven gates wont open to you.

A sin against the holy spirit is said to be unforgivable.

So all sins are not equal.

All sins are evil before God. Nevertheless, they do not have the same consequences.

Anger is not sin: this is a negative emotion that in itself is not a sin and can be used as a motivational force and energy to do positive things.(Be angry but do not sin; Eph 4:26)

Depression is not a sin: negative emotion

Drinking alcohol is not a sin : for many of nature's edibles have alcohol in them for our wellness. Eg palm wine. This also is a gift from God.

Drug addiction is not a sin: This is a bad habit resulting to the dependency on drugs. We all have our addictions, be it a TV programmes, sports, entertainment, politics, music, books, Bible etc.

Poverty is not a sin: A lack of something in itself is a resultant effect of a lack of input in a specific cause.

Wealth is not a sin: Abundance is the extreme end of the other side of the quantity scale of which poverty is measured. (The same law of input and output).

Pornography is not a sin: This is just like any other entertainment, the only difference is it's great power of stirring man's already inherent urge, unfortunately, causing an imbalance.

Polygamy is not a sin: This is a societal trend towards population control. Marriage ends here on Earth and the union expires after death.

Divorce is not a sin: A mistake should be corrected. Shouldn't it?

MouthAction is not a sin: Where you play with on your body is not significant. Why should a part of the body be ostracised for criticism because of the pleasure it brings? Your body is a vessel which you need to operate on Earth and return after your time is up.

Masturbation is not a sin: There are many grey areas here, but just like cunnilingus, body-part stimulation is just for self pleasure and you offend no one in the act. Think of a straight line and a zigzag, a straight line masturbation is natural, a zigzag masturbation can cross other parts and lead to degrading things like perversion, addiction, health decline, sexual normalcy etc.

These may lead to self-defilement, which may be a lower plane for man to live, it may be animalistic, but it sure is not an act punishable by any external entities except these things lead to other actions that are sinful.

Not all pleasurable acts depicts sin.

Back to the question: SIN is SIN but Jesus has paid for all our sins and transgressions. Just repent and it is erased, but the consequences remains. Why? What you sow, you reap.

Our righteousness is of Jesus. We are all sinners and deserve hell, but Jesus has saved us. I am saved by grace. Hallelujah.

Happy Sunday to you all.

All other sins are equal but blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is unforgivable hence it's not equal to other sins

Only the sin against the Holy Spirit is rated higher. Every other sin is equal.
