The Gospel today indicates this understanding with greater punishment for those who are more blameworthy. Catholicism makes the distinction between Mortal and Venial sins. We are to avoid sin and pursue goodness. If we fail and turn away from God in a serious way it seriously hurts us and we must turn back to God.
