the only sin that will keep you out of heaven is the sin of rejecting Gods plan of salvation, that being, rejecting his sons death on the cross. No one will go to hell for any other sin as the Bible says, Christ died for every sin that has ever or will ever be committed. they were nailed to the cross with Him. Anyone that does not know this is lacking Bible doctrine. To God sin is sin whether it be stealing or murder or even mental attitude sins (in your mind). Yet He died for those and that includes the sin of homosexuality. They may suffer consequences and be taken to the woodshed but if they truly accepted Christ as their savior, they are saved (though as by fire) When , at the end, they are called to be judged at the Great White Throne what does the Bible say they will be judged for ? Sins? NO, they will be judged on their works (which of course "as filthy rags" to God. That is human works or human good.

Nice answer

Some people do not realize all the sins they commit daily such as passing up the homeless man on the side of the road that is hungry, dirty, without shelter and without love.

I was trying to explain this to a friend recently and the homeless man was the best example I could think of.

Do you have some others that I might share with those who “don’t sin daily”

> but if they truly accepted Christ as their savior, they are saved

But that’s the sticky point. The word “accept” means a lot more than just saying “I believe Jesus will save me.” God looks past hollow words and into the heart. If one says they accept Jesus merely to justify their continued sin, that is heretical.
