Sin is sinHmmm, let's take a look at that:
Joe becomes frustrated in a traffic jam and lets slip three words in his anger: "God damn it."
Jim becomes frustrated in a traffic jam and pulls a pistol from his pocket. The driver who cut him off gets a bullet in the head.
But hey, a sin is a sin...justice says they are punished equally.

Paul made it clear that you cannot mix grace with works: "For it is by graceyou have been saved, through faithand this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God, not by works, so that no onne can boast" (Eph. 2:8-9); "He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy" (Titus 3:5); God ""has saved us and called us to a holy lifenot because of ..anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace" (2 Tim. 1:8-9); "And if by grace, then it is no longer by works" (Romas 11:6).
Amazingly, the Catholic Church condemns and curses anyone who believes the wonderful truths revealed in the above verses
