Romans 3:23 NLT
For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious standard. (Romans 3:23 NLT)
This Sin or That Sin Is Greater
From today's devotional
Some sins seem bigger than others because their obvious consequences are much more serious. Murder, for example, seems to us to be worse than hatred, and adultery seems worse than lust. But this does not mean that because we do lesser sins we deserve eternal life.
All sin makes us sinners, and all sin cuts us off from our holy God. All sin, therefore, leads to death (because it disqualifies us from living with God), regardless of how great or small it seems.
Don't minimize "little" sins or overrate "big" sins. They all separate us from God, but they all can be forgiven.
Romans 1:16-17 MSG
It’s news I’m most proud to proclaim, this extraordinary Message of God’s powerful plan to rescue everyone who trusts him, starting with Jews and then right on to everyone else! God’s way of putting people right shows up in the acts of faith, confirming what Scripture has said all along: “The person in right standing before God by trusting him really lives.” (Romans 1:16-17 MSG)
