All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin not leading to death (I John 5:17).
Iniquity, according to my dictionary, is “gross sin—wickedness, scandalous, injustice.” Yet even these will not put someone to death. Even these will not deny someone entrance into heaven, IF they are in Christ. All sin is forgiven there. The word sin covers a large territory, from the slightest offense to the most disgusting behavior man can devise. My W.E. Vine dictionary says it means, in Greek, “a missing of the mark.” What mark might that be? God. We aim for the highest, and we fall short. In that case, I sin every day. And every day I am forgiven! The Blood of Jesus sits on the altar in heaven and speaks in my behalf. “Marty has given her life to Jesus! Keep your hands off of her!” Glory Be to God!
