Are All Sins Equal In The Eyes Of God?

“Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey—whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness? But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to sin, you have come to obey from your heart the pattern of teaching that has now claimed your allegiance. You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness.” (Romans 6:16-18.)

All sins are mortal because all sins separate us from God, the only source of immortality. 
Sins are all those things that form a barrier between us and our participation in God. 
So all sins are serious and equal in the eyes of God in that they all separate us from Him. 
Whether our sins are minor or significant, they all place us apart from God’s grace.
We repeatedly read in the Gospel that the Kingdom of God is within us and that we are the temple of the Holy Spirit. 
We read in the first epistle to the Corinthians, chapter six, “know you not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which you have of God, and you are not your own? For you are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s”( 1Corinthians 6:15-20).
So when we sin, we choose to build in our hearts the principality of this world rather than the kingdom of God. 
Saint Paul tells us in the epistle to the Romans, chapter six, “Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey, whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?.” 

But when we conquer these principalities and replace them with the indwelling of Jesus Christ with the help of the Holy Spirit, we become warriors of God's Kingdom. 
Let us train ourselves for this spiritual battle, learning how to fight and struggle against the principality of death and sin within ourselves.
In this war, which is fought in one's conscience, mind, and soul, we must choose to defeat and conquer one of the enemy's strongholds, sin, and attain our goal. 
We must choose to have Christ’s dominion over our hearts. 
Amen.
