No offence meant, but if you were offended then does that come from a pride filled heart?










I'm just yanking your chain.

In all seriousness: Your statement above might fit you but it certainly does fit me!!!! I am nothing in and of myself. Oh wretched man that I am..........

So Chan, you seriously don't think some sins are worse than others? Give me scripture that proves it please? Why are some things listed as abominations, and other sins are not?

Abominations like lying (which most people - including some here - consider to be one of the lesser sins) or using inaccurate weights and measures? The scriptural proof is in the passages that state such things as "those whose names were not written in the Lamb's book of life were cast into the lake of fire" and those lists in the New Testament of sinners that won't inherit the kingdom of God (if you put the various lists together, you have all sinners).

So, what do you think? Is jealousy the worst of all sins?

Goodness gracious no!

The worst of all sins is sitting in MY pew! After all, I've spent forty-five years crafting this pew to fit my <ahem> contours!

All other sins are equally sinful and bring the same eternity in the lake of fire for those who don't repent and the same forgiveness for those who do repent. This ungodly notion of categorizing sins, making some out to be worse than others, comes from the Roman Catholic heresy of mortal and venial sins.

Chan,

You're right on this one, but if you could pick a sin which one in your opinion do you think is the worst?
