Where in the Bible does it state that God has sin hierarchy?
Which sins are the worst?
You can lie to your wife and still go to heaven because at least you are not homosexual?
Well let’s see.....perhaps if someone shoots himself in the head because he suffers from depression, do you know for a fact that he is NOT going to heaven?
Should the church hold a funeral for a woman who has had an abortion?
From some of the comments I have seen here, it would appear that some people know exactly whether or not this dead homosexual went to heaven.
Perhaps he asked god for forgiveness right before he died and was denied a funeral.
The seems to be quite bit of judging going on here by my fellow Christians.
But they didn’t think homosexuality was a sin. They basically said to the Church that they are wrong and they do not believe in their message, yet they wanted the benefit of the Church sanctifying their sinfulness.
In regard to salvation, there is only one sin "worse" than others, since it cannot be forgiven. But some sins do have greater consequences in this life. The Bible does identify a "sin unto death" and a "sin not unto death".

Perhaps he did, but unless there was true repentance, just asking for forgiveness is not what is required for salvation. And he was not denied a funeral - his family just was not allowed to use that building. And I don't see why the church would be obligated to allow an open homosexual to use their building for his funeral on the unlikely chance that he MAY have decided to repent just before he died.
