"There is only ONE sin that leads to death and both of those passages say that."

=============================================================

No, it does not say that CynicalBear.

It is talking about "forgiven sins" vs. "unforgiven sins", and which sins can be forgiven.

Any mortal sin can lead to death if forgiveness is not sought and received.

The Bible clearly say that God will forgive our sins if we confess them.

Not unforgiven sins. It's unforgiven sin. (Singular)

1 John 5:16 If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.

A sin. Singular

What is that sin?

Mark 3:28 Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme: 29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation:

Blasphemy is slander and libel directed at the Holy Spirit.

...”Any mortal sin can ‘lead to death’ if forgiveness is not sought and received”....

Any command by God that is not obeyed ‘perfectly ‘ would be defined as sin. ...“ALL” unrighteousness is sin” ....(I Jn. 5:17)...................Rom 3:10 “There is none righteous, no, not one.”

And ALL sin leads to death for “the wages of sin IS death”.

As for forgiveness..

God warmly gives His invitation........”Come now, let us ‘reason together’,” says the LORD.’’’’ “Though your sins are like scarlet, ‘’’they shall be as white as snow;’’’’ though they are red as crimson, ....they shall be like wool...Isaih 1:18
