With regards to eternal consequences and salvation, all sins are the same. However, different sins have different impacts on a person during their life here on earth before we are judged. Sin regardless of the type and size will lead to eternal condemnation (Romans 6:23). Fortunately there is only one sin that can never be forgiven; “blasphemy of the Holy Spirit” mentioned in Mark 3:28–30 and Matthew 12:31–32. All other sins are forgiven and true believers of Christ Jesus will be saved from eternal condemnation.

All sin that is unrepented and unforgiven seperates us from our Sinless father. It needs a savior who supplied the payment for sin (Jesus Christ the righteous). However. all sin does not have the same degree of punishment and is not equal. So, when people lump lesser sin in with greater sin and they equalize them, it istrue in the sense of seperation from God and not true in the sense of eternal punishment. One should not trivialize major sin in this fashion.

I thought people who are very moral but without Christ will go to hell just as much as a very wicked people without Christ because of sin singular

One thing is for sure. If you believe in him, someday he will let you know.

does God view all sins the same? the bible says these sins will send you to fornacation, greed, envy, idolatery, hatred, drunkeness, , etc. now tell me how greed and envy are "not as bad" as adulatery, homosexuality, and murder?? if sin "A" will send me to hell and sin "B" will send me to hell how can I say sin "A" is not as bad as sin " B"??. now we all agree that under the human law that hating someone is not as bad as actually killing thier body, but under Gods law BOTH will equelly send you to hell.. its very dangerous human thinking to say that some sins are not as bad as other sins all believve OUR sins are not as bad as other peoples sins.

There were different sacrifices required in the OT for various transgressions.

[stevend.bennett]

No, or there would not have been differing degrees of punishment in the OT.

[barbaramartin]

While I'll agreee that there are various levels of sin, The biggest sin that truly gets anyone into Hell is the rejection of JESUS.

God views all sins the Remember that is what his son died for, the sins of the world. Your sins are forgiven whether you believe it or not, or frankly whether you believe in God or not.
