You are right, the determining factor is whether a person’s name is found in the Lamb’s Book of Life. If not found, that person is thrown in the Lake of Fire. And we get our names in the Book by faith in Jesus and His work at the cross. The point I was trying to make in my previous post was that any sin is the same to God, deserving of eternity in the Lake of Fire, regardless of how “bad” or how “small” the sin is. It is not confession, purgatory or anything like that that saves us, but grace through faith.

Correct.

Driving 22mph in a 20mph School Zone with a faulty speedometer will qualify as sin as many immoral acts.

Sin is just missing the mark in God’s Plan.

The issue today is remaining in fellowship with God, to be in the right place, at the right time, to do the right thing in the right manner, all through faith in Christ. He handles the rest.
