As there is no sin so small, but it deserves damnation; so there is no sin so great, that it can bring damnation upon those who truly repent.
All sin is heinous before the eyes of God and is rightly condemned. God's standard is perfect righteousness; anything short of that mark brings his wrath and judgment. We need no quarrel over the sizes of sins, because we have all sinned so many times as to make such fine-pointing moot. But thanks be to God that in Christ Jesus there is no sin that can overcome his redeeming love. Only the person who goes down to the grave in willful unrepentance is condemned--no Christian has ever (or will ever) commit the unpardonable sin.
