Q. 150. Are all transgressions of the law of God equally heinous in themselves, and in the sight of God?

150LC 150

All transgressions of the law of God are not equally heinous; but some sins in themselves, and by reason of several aggravations, are more heinous in the sight of God than others.

John 19:11; Ezek. 8:6, 13, 15; 1 John 5:16; Ps. 78:17, 32, 56.
