Telling your wife she doesn't look fat in that dress is the same as raping an murdering your own daughter? That's non-sense.
”In ‘that’ sense, all sins are equal in that they ALL separate us from God.” Lying is a sin, and separates us from God. Murder is a sin, and separates us from God. In ‘that’ context, both of those sins separate us from God. Sin separates us from God. Period. ‘That’ is the point.


I would have to disagree with that, my friend.
If a grandma is babysitting the grandkids on a Saturday night and a drug crazed dimocrap is breaking in and she has the kids run and hide and he gets in and asks if there is anyone else in the house and she says there isnt, has she sinned by lying?

Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.

The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but that of a fool to the left.
