Dear Mr. L Ray Smith,
You are an answer to prayer!!!
Thank you for your Web site. Now my Spirit has a word of interpretation it can agree with.
May the Lord continue to Bless you and your family with all Spiritual Blessings. I hope this isnt a stupid question.
My question for you is… I have been told all sin is the same. That does not agree with me. Listening to the news lately I am sickened by the sexual crimes done to 18 month olds. I just cant understand how that could be as bad as say smoking or drinking or thinking a thought that would be a sin. Such horrible things are done like rape and murder I am having a hard time with this Please help.
Sincerely, Eliza
Dear Eliza:
My great, great grandmother was named Eliza.
No, not all sins are the same. The Scriptures clearly speak of lesser and greater sins: "For the punishment of the iniquity [that's sins] of the daughter of My people is GREATER than the punishment of the SIN of Sodom...." (Lam. 4:6). "....therefore he that delivered Me unto you has THE GREATER SIN" (John 19:11). Etc.
God be with you,
Ray
