Default Sin is sin

No matter how small, no matter how big, sin is sin. There is but one unforgiveable sin, all the rest can be washed by the precious blood of the Lord Jesus Christ.
While this is better than good news for us all it is also sad to say that some use this as an excuse to accept any kind of ungodly behaviour.
God said thou shalt not murder- I cannot come here as a murderer with intentions to keep murdering all the time trying to convince everyone that God is ok with my continued murdering. Yep sin is sin, we all stumble but we are not to have a lifestyle based on what God hates. God indeed acepts those who are struggling to get free and is forgiving when we stumble and repent but never mistake mercy and love for weakness. If one spends their whole life and lifestyle devoted to that which God hates and purposes in their heart to do so then that one will find themselves in dire straights on judgement day.

These are of course my opinions on the subject.
