Excerpt from the book Mediations on Christian Dogma, Volume II - There are a multitude and variety of sins, some lesser, some greater. Still all sin is an offense against God. It is a sign of a lack of love toward our Creator, our Savior, and our Lord. Sin not only affects the individual but everyone around them. We are told that even one sin is a rejection of all of God’s laws. We should learn to lose our attraction to sin and avoid those occasions that weaken our good intentions, doing all for our love of God.
