Bible Question: If you never talk to a person and make them cry, just because you never talk to them for a year and never see them again, is that a sin? Or is it just you saying I don't want to have anything to do with you. |
Bible Answer: MT 22:37 And He said to him, “ ‘YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.’ MT 22:38 “This is the great and foremost commandment.

Not knowing the whole story, it is hard to make a guess if what you are doing is a sin or not.
