Lets say a humble saved person commits a mortal sin - what then?

Can you please show us from Scripture the distinction between mortal and venial sin?

[MrB]

I’m sure your point is that all sin is abhorrent to God, and excludes the sinner from His eternal presence,

correct?

[CynicalBear]

A person indwelt by the Holy Spirit cannot commit a mortal sin. The only mortal sin is blasphemy of the Holy Spirit prior to being saved.

1 John 5:16-17: "If any one sees his brother committing what is not a mortal sin, he will ask, and God will give him life for those whose sin is not mortal. There is sin which is mortal; I do not say that one is to pray for that. All wrongdoing is sin, but there is a sin which is not mortal."

Luke 12:47-48: "And that servant who knew his master's will, but did not make ready or act according to his will, shall receive a severe beating. But he who did not know, and did what deserved a beating, shall receive a light beating. Every one to whom much is given, of him will much be required; and of him to whom men commit much they will demand the more."
