Scripture
Is sin venial and mortal?
Scripture teaches that all sin is serious, because “the wages of sin is death.” (Rom. 6:23)
Sin brings death, but the gospel gives us the greater truth: God offers eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
“The sting of death is sin… But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” (1 Cor. 15:56–57)
Our hope is not in trying to make sin seem small — it is in Christ, who gives forgiveness, victory, and eternal life. ✝️
