There are many levels to sin...
Sin is worse if you do something wrong when you know it is wrong.
Our souls are born pure. Certain acts such as taking a human life are always wrong. We know what sin is subconsciously even if we have disconnected with our pure child and logically convinced ourselves that something is not a sin.
Just yesterday I worked with a woman who had two abortions when she was younger. Even though she told me that it was ok and I said nothing in response to her statement, when I touched her soul and amplified the memories she lost it emotionally and sought forgiveness. She accepted forgiveness and instantly her eyes opened wide and her burden was lifted.
The really great thing is that Divine Grace is here for all of us and it is stronger right now than it has been since creation.
God’s Grace is a constant.
Sin is worse if you do something wrong when you know it is wrong.
Our souls are born pure.
Not based on Romans 3:23...all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
Certain acts such as taking a human life are always wrong.
Again, not correct. The taking of innocent life in murder is wrong. There is a concept of justified war however.
No one is born pure.
People are born not having sinned, but all have the corruption and sin nature that results in them sinning.
That's why you don't have to teach a two year old to do wrong. That's why one of a one year old's first 6 words is *NO!*
If someone was born pure, then if they had managed to live their lives without sin, they could see God, probing that it was possible and that Christ died for nothing.
Our theology needs to be based in the inerrant, God breathed word of God, not our experience.
If our experiences are the basis for our theology, then we WILL go off the rails.
Build your theology on the Rock, not on sand.
