I would like to suggest a bible study to you on the laws of israel ..there were civil laws, ceremonial law and moral law..
Perhaps a study would help sort out your confusion .
I just googles this up for you.. you can start here, because you are very confused .

The commandments are moral law, they reflect the character of God, and are impossible to keep . The purpose of then is to show us our need for a Savior..because no one can keep them...
It was James ( a catholic favorite) that said breaking one is the same as breaking them all. Not me
God can not stand in the presence of ANY sin, Until men understand how Holy and righteous He is, they will see themselves as good enough ..worthy enough
Maybe in YOUR mind a child stealing a pencil is not equal to stalin...but then we do not have the mind of God ..we do not see things from a spotless holy perspective ...we see sin as it relates to us, not God
How does God look at a lie? Is a lie damning? read Acts 5 1-11
God punishes what we would call a mistake or trivial ...
Uzzah was struck dead for steading the ark.... two priests were struck dead for using the wrong fire...
Until we see our lives as God sees them, we will never really repent..
You know we should be frightened . white or black , or brown.. we should all stand in fear and awe of a holy God that is also a just judge..no one will get probation my friend..
Paul said “The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness” (Romans 1:16).
All sin is wickedness to God
Mark 1:14Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
15And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
Luke 13:3I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all peris
Rom 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
“Maybe in YOUR mind a child stealing a pencil is not equal to stalin...but then we do not have the mind of God ..we do not see things from a spotless holy perspective ...we see sin as it relates to us, not God...”
The commandments are even harder to keep than not stealing a pencil as Jesus clarified. Where He explained that even if you don’t ACT on stealing it, but “only” coveting it is a sin. And of course men don’t see it as “equal”, nor should we in our laws, etc. But both keep us apart from God.
