A sin might be seen as a marble.... a little sin like telling a lie....., it might be a cantaloupe, a bigger sin like robbery..... it might be a basketball, a more vicious sin like murder. All sin .... but coming in different sizes and having different effects.
But, it is a black marble of sin.... a black cantaloupe or and a black basketball.
All sin, big and small is all black.
No argument there.
What does The Book advise about blasphemy?

the pope is a communist. in one pic he is getting his orders from the satanic bolshevik jews. in the pic where he is kissing the negros feet he could be mistaken for a modern conservative
Good point grand wizard. Blacks can't be christians and should not allowed in churches.

The follow-on thought: At judgment day, one standing before God can be seen as holding a ball.... representing all,the sins and misdeeds of that one’s life. Some are standing there with little black balls and some are there with huge black balls.
The one with a little ball might think...... “Ok, I have only a little black ball and look at the others with very large black balls” ....
Then they find that God is ..... so-to-speak.... judging not on the size of the black balls of sin, but on the color of the balls.
It is a no go if your ball is black.
The tax collector said: “Lord Jesus, have mercy on me, a sinner.” Jesus said he went home “justified.”

Heh !
I guess Ole roman warrior forgot about the RC Church refusing to open their books to the Jews about circa WW 2 and possibly finding Jewish assets “secured “ by the Church during that era.

You left out the matters of repentance and salvation before judgement.
Jus sayin.

Politics has taken over religion, religion is now politics. Like it hasnt ever happened.....
Of course if there's enough public sentiment to throw certain peoples asses in an oven, all is golden.
The government basing taxation on marital status or a relationship with a beach ball in most conservatives eyes should be a cart before horse idea to begin with.
Hebrews 10:28-29 How much more severely do you think a man deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God under foot, who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant that sanctified him, and who has insulted the Spirit of grace?
2 Peter 2:20-22 For if after they have escaped the defilements of the world by the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and are overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first. For it would be better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn away from the holy commandment delivered to them.
James 3:1-2 Let not many of you become teachers, my brethren, knowing that as such we shall incur a stricter judgment.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
The Old Testament.. The Law.. was specific about homosexuality.
If man 'lie' with man they shall be put to death. (normally stoning to death. If woman 'lie' with woman they shall be put to death (^^ ^^ ).
One place God said, "There shall be no sodomite in Israel" *** Why were Sodom & Gomorrah destroyed ? *** Homosexuality.
**** I don't have time to look those up but I can and will, If someone want to read it for themself That is Old Testament AND Rock Chuck is spot one in the New Testament. I read it myself.

26For this reason God gave them up to degrading passions.
Their women exchanged natural intercourse for unnatural, 27and in the same way also the men, giving up natural intercourse with women, were consumed with passion for one another. Men committed shameless acts with men and received in their own persons the due penalty for their error.
It says what it says. Liberal churches now allow same sex marriages and encourage perverted behavior. They try to take the words of the Bible and twist them to say they don't mean what they say but in the end, the words of the Lord will stand and perverts will pay the price.
Man's wishes and wisdom have been 'SUBSTITUTED' for God's Word.

Yes....but...... two judgments..... the great throne judgment and the Bema seat...... different judgments, different folks and different criteria for the judgments.

"One place God said, "There shall be no sodomite in Israel" *** Why were Sodom & Gomorrah destroyed ? *** Homosexuality."
Some would say there are homos in Israel. God is not referring to the nation of Israel here, however. Remember, HE said all of Israel will be saved. We know all those people in Israel wont be saved because not all of them accept JESUS CHRIST as SAVIOUR. HE refers to HIS believers as Israel. All of those are who will be saved.

The Old Testament.. The Law.. was specific about homosexuality.
The Old Testament.. The Law.. was also specific about adultery, a woman not being a virgin on the night of her wedding, taking God’s name in vain, and rebelling against one’s parents...ALL of which required violators to be put to death.
It’s likely pointless to try and list sins according to their degree of seriousness. “For the wages of sin is death...” (Romans 6:23), applies to ALL sin, whether in thought, word, or deed. In ‘that’ sense, all sins are equal in that they ALL separate us from God.

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?

I hear ya’. And I know where you’re comin’ from. MOST lies are done for self advancement, greed, or other selfish reasons, etc., but some ‘are’ done at least with the intention of protecting others, their reputations or physical selves. I think our Creator knows what’s in our hearts, and He knows our motivations.
