What things are considered as sins?

According to Roman Catholic theology, the seven deadly sins are the seven behaviours or feelings that inspire further sin. They are typically ordered as: pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath, and sloth.

Is it a sin to have a crush?

When crushes cause us to walk away from God’s important tenets, that leads us to sin. When we put our crush before God, we are definitely sinning. The commandments are clear that we avoid idol worship, and idols come in all sorts of forms—even people. Often our crushes start taking up our thoughts and desires.

Are sins of the flesh the least serious of all sins?

Pope Francis has said that sins of the flesh – that is, sins of lust or impurity – are “the least serious” of all sins. The controversial statement can be found in Chapter 5 of the book entitled “Pope Francis, the Path of Change in Politics and Society: A Future of Faith”.

Do you know what sin looks like?

We know sin exists and most of us think we know what it looks like, but sin can be sneaky. There are times we sin without knowing … or maybe without wanting to know. Sin doesn’t just happen. First there is temptation, and then there is a choice.

What are the most common sins in the Bible?

There’s no single comprehensive list of sins in the Bible, but there’s a famous list of commandments from which we can extrapolate some of the most universally agreed ones. Murder makes the list, obviously, as do theft, idol worship, adultery and coveting your neighbour’s oxen.

Are all sins equal?

All sins are equal in that they all divide us from God. The Bible’s declaration, “For the wages of sin is death” (Romans 6:23), refers to all sin, whether in thought, word, or act. We can trick ourselves into believing that it’s the really “big” sins we have to avoid, all the while ignoring deadly sin in our own lives.
