No, the religious lie is that some sins are worse than others. Its how you excuse your own sin by comparing yourself to another and concluding your sin is somehow less significant than theirs. There are different consequences for us in this life for different sins, including some sins that will physically kill us. But there is no difference from God's POV. The wages of sin is death. That's all sin.
The ONLY sin unto death is rejecting Jesus as your Lord and Savior.
Sins have NO effect on our Salvation. Sins do have effect on the Rewards we will receive in Heaven.
1 John 1:7
[SUP]7 [/SUP]but if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.
Its the Blood Jesus shed on the Cross that cleanses us from ALL sins. Every sin we have done and every sin we will do has already been cleansed from us. ALL past, present, and future sins have been washed clean.
Yes we still are sinners BUT we are not to sin willingly.
Most of what Peter and HeRoseFromTheDead are teaching are Doctrines from the Catholic Church. The problem is when you are so concerned about what sins you have done you have no time left to grow in the Lord. You are too busy trying to keep yourself clean that you lose track of what we really need to be doing.
Peter and HeRoseFromTheDead put way too much emphasis on not sinning. We have been washed clean from all our sins, past, present, and future!
You need to move on Peter. You really need to spend more time walking with the Lord and less time trying to cleanse yourself of your sins. This is what is holding back a lot of people from growing in the Lord.
2 Timothy 2:14-17
[SUP]14 [/SUP]Remind them of these things, and solemnly charge them in the presence of God not to wrangle about words, which is useless and leads to the ruin of the hearers. [SUP]15 [/SUP]Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth. [SUP]16 [/SUP]But avoid worldly and empty chatter, for it will lead to further ungodliness, [SUP]17 [/SUP]and their talk will spread like gangrene.

i'm sorry, I have to respectfully dis-agree with you here. we are supposed to a holy lifestyle. 1st and 2nd Peter make this clear. now, while we will never be 100% holy, this does not mean that we are not to try. I believe in the finished work of Christ, I also believe that we will have changed lives as a result of salvation, santifacation that is!
