This tells me that at least one sin is greater than another. On the other hand.
This might imply that all sins are equal. However, we are given a spirit of sound judgement.
I'm going to use my spirit of sound judgement and use it to conclude that killing 20 people is a greater sin than stealing a pencil from your friend at school.

1 John 5:16-17 said:If anyone sees his brother committing a sin that does not bring death, he should ask, and God will give life to him - to those who commit sin that doesn't bring death. I am not saying he should pray about that. All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin that does not bring death.
