Romans 6: 23 ~ "For the wages of Sin is DEATH"
This scripture says it all, ALL sin is worthy of death and everytime we sin Grace abounds.

Romans 6: 1~ "...Shall we continue in Sin the Grace may abound?"
Paul asked this question. The more we sin the more mercy God gives us, if we didn't sin so much than God would not have to give as much mercy as he does but because he loves us, he shows mercy even when we sin.

Romans 6: 15 ~ "...Shall we Sin, because we are not under the law, but under Grace? GOD FORBID

Hope this helps, God bless

Paul first described the Gentile sinner as being “full” of a number of sinful characteristics. “Wickedness” is the lack of moral uprightness. “Greed” is the insatiable desire to have more, normally to the disadvantage of others. Morris comments that “envy reminds us that evildoers are not just one happy band of brothers.” A number of commentators have taken “malice” in the rather specific sense used by Aristotle: “the tendency to put the worst construction upon everything.” But Paul probably would have used it in the broader sense of malignity. Goodspeed calls it “ill-nature.” Grundmann says it is “conscious and intentional wickedness.”

Then Paul continued by listing twelve additional character flaws of the unregenerate person. Phillips translates “slanderers” as “stabbers-in-the-back.” “God-haters” may be either those who hate God or those who are “loathed by God” (Moffatt), although most scholars prefer the former. Rienecker notes that the Greek word translated “insolent” “contains a mixture of cruelty and pride.” “Arrogant” people are those who in their self-sufficiency elevate themselves over all others. They are “boastful.” Natural humans are said to “invent ways of doing evil” (they are “ingenious in evil,” Goodspeed). To be “senseless” means to be “devoid of conscience” (Moffatt). The Greek term translated “faithless” designates those who are false to their word. The “heartless” are those devoid of “natural affection” (AV).

A more depressing catalog of vices would be difficult to find. Yet who can deny that turning from God leads inexorably down the trail into moral darkness? Although people know well that those who do such things deserve the penalty of death, they not only continue to do them but also applaud others who follow the same course of action. Willful rejection of divine revelation hardens the heart to the point where the rebel takes delight in the sinfulness of others. At this point wickedness has sunk to its lowest level.

Was Paul a bit too severe in his opposition. Were all nonbelievers in his day that vile? What about contemporary America? Don't we all know people who although they are not believers are at the same time kind and thoughtful? The answer to the latter question is yes. Consider, however, that they are the benefactors of a civilization shaped to a great extent by its Judeo-Christian heritage. Remember also that Paul was establishing the important point that outside of Christ there is a critical need for righteousness. He would not say that everyone to whom he was writing was equally sinful or that everyone was guilty of every sin listed.

Using a rhetorical method well known to ancient orators, he was pressing home the crucial point that all outside of Christ are in need of salvation.

The wages of death is sin.

Sin its self is worthy of death - any sin, all sin that has not been repented of and forgiven by the Father through His Son.

God Bless You

The fact that you would even ask such a question tells me everything I need to know about the bible and Christians: That you believe it's acceptable to kill in the name of your religion.

any sin can cause death, remember God doesn't need us, we need HIM (Hebrews 10:26) . . .For if we practice sin willfully after having received the accurate knowledge of the truth, there is no longer any sacrifice for sins left. . .

So YOU REALLY 'LOVE' *THIS* BIBLICAL DEATH SENTENCE, huh, Kind, Loving, Sweet, Tolerant Xian?

The ‘Holy’ Bible advocates the KILLING of 2/3s of ALL HUMANITY – me, just because I accept tons of scientific evidence over zero evidence of any of humanity’s “Gods.”

BIBLICAL DEATH PENALTY: KILL UNBELIEVERS - Acts 3:23 … "And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear the prophet, shall be destroyed."

BIBLICAL DEATH PENALTY: KILL UNBELIEVERS - Chronicles 15:12-13 (NIV) … They entered into a covenant to seek the LORD, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and soul. All who would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, were to be put to death, whether small or great, man or woman.

( NONE OF HUMANITY'S 'GODS' EXIST... Zip. Zilch. Nada. )

All of them are for satisfying our temporary desires. So none of them are worthy of death.
