Are All Sins Equal? - A Theological Question
This conversation revolves around the concept of sin and its varying degrees of severity in the eyes of God. Ian, Galen, and their guest, Andy discuss several key points:
1. They agree that committing a sin with full awareness is worse than sinning out of ignorance. They use the example of premeditated stealing versus casually taking something without much thought.

2. The conversation touches on the Old Testament sacrificial system, noting that not all sins were treated equally and not all sins made it into the Ten Commandments.

3. They address the common misconception that "all sins are equal in God's eyes." The participants argue that this idea is not actually found in the Bible and may stem from a misunderstanding of the concept that any sin makes a person entirely a sinner.

4. They discuss the biblical passage about lusting with one's eyes being as bad as committing the act, expressing some difficulty in fully accepting this concept.

5. A catechism is cited, stating that some sins are indeed more heinous than others in God's sight, though all sins are still considered wrong.

6. An analogy is made comparing sin to wetness: all sin is sin, just as all wet is wet, but there are degrees of severity, just as there are degrees of wetness.

7. The conversation mentions that the Bible distinguishes between "sins unto death" and "sins that are not unto death," suggesting that God may deal more harshly with some sins than others.

8. Finally, they briefly touch on the concept of an unpardonable sin, further emphasizing the idea that not all sins are viewed equally.

The discussion concludes with an announcement about an upcoming book release titled "Confronting Evil in Our Time," based on their podcast about C.S. Lewis's "The Screwtape Letters."
