So mortal sin versus non-mortal as specified in the Bible does not signify "gradation of sin" to you?

Where's the list?

Sin is properly defined as "missing the mark". theist analogy is that of a bullseye target., with the center bullseye representing the perfect Will of God. Anything outside that bullseye is sin, "missing the mark". It's not about "right" or "wrong", and certainly doesn't come in degrees or categories.

It is simple. God's Will or our will. If it is of God, it is perfect, if from our will, it is sin! The wages of sin is death! Faith in Christ's sacrifice grants us immunity from our mortal state and forgiveness of any sin or transgression . With God, all things are possible.
