Only one sin is not forgivable, what is it? I have asked and get different answers: suicide, taking Gods name in vain, renouncing God.

The sin against the holy spirit (Matthew 12:31-32) As you worried about this then it proves you have not commited such a sin as if you had you wouldn't care it is like you lose that something that part of your conscious. Like Satan and his demons they sinned against holy spirit and are not looking for repentance rather they don't care about repentance they know only they are to be destroyed but don't repent of their actions.
Being an ACTIVE homosexual is sinning as God says so but it is not the ultimate sin (Romans 1:26-27)(1 Corintians 6:9-11) (Leviticus 18:22) Though God often speaks of men lying with men he is talking about homosexual acts.
You can be forgiven on the basis of Jesus Christ's sacrifice.
Hell - it is the grave where the dead rest and it is not a burning place pictured by apostate christianity.
God is love. God is also perfect justice. You could never do anything that would justify an infinity in torture - even Hitler or bin Laden.
I recommend you speak to Jehovah's Witnesses they have the answers you need and also be able to build your knowledge of the Truth about God and his purposes. [2 Timothy 3:16-17] Maybe you could get to really know Him and become a loyal friend and the prospect of true everlasting life with no pain or sickness.

The only sin that is not forgivable is renouncing the Holy Spirit (or God) .... ALL other sin is forgivable if you simply ask God for forgiveness, repent (turn away from that sin) and ask Jesus to come into your heart and live for him. You need to read the book of Romans and then the book of John. For your question about being a lesbian, see 1 Corinthians -chapter 6 verse 9-10... It includes homosexuals as those who will not inherit the kingdom of God.
May you be open to this and ask for forgiveness... Jesus loves you as a person - it's only your sin that keeps you from him.
God bless~

Your not going to hell because you are a lesiban. And ignore anyone that tells you any different. Your not a lesiban by choice, it's just the way you are .God made you, so why would he make someone that is just going to go to hell. Or ask you to repent or ask for forgiveness for the way he made you. Many conservatives say the Bible is a guide to human conduct, which must be followed strictly but the liberals say the Bible must be interpreted in the light of modern knowledge. They also point out that some conservatives are selective in choosing which injunctions to obey: nobody now takes the Bible seriously on the treatment of slaves, for instance. And Jesus himself is not on record as saying anything about homosexuality.

You will not go to hell because you are a Lesbian. Don't worry. God does not punish people. Man punishes. Those that give you a hard time are ignorant to the fact that God made you this way, it is not a way of life you chose. Who would want all that harassment? You will go to heaven. Taking god's name in vain you will be forgiven for if you really mean it. I think that suicide is the ultimate sin. Don't worry so much about it. If you are a good person and are good to mankind you will be fine. God thinks outside the box. Ignorant humans don't.
Tell me the person that is the murderer, child abuser, thief, can go to heaven. They gay person can't? I don't think so. You are going to heaven.
Good luck.

I have read your answers, yes god loves you, yes it is forgivable, but you must be sincere when you ask god's forgiveness and stop commiting the sin. And you don't jusy have to believe in him and his word to go to heaven you must also live by his word to get into heaven. Want to know how to go to heaven?? Read matthew, Mark, Luke , John and the Book of Acts found one after another in the new tesimate. And no, it is not in your genes and god did not make you gay, as some may tell you, you simply made a choice. The bible says that is is an abomination.

There are no unforgivable sins. If you truly in your heart are sorry and ask God forgiveness, He will give it to you. But as far as the lesbian thing, here's a hint: ADAM and EVE, put on this earth to be fruitful and multiply, not EVE and EMILY or ADAM and STEVE to do whatever pleases them. Might sound a little on the harsh side, if so, I'm sorry, but gimme a break. Read the bible if God has gotten you curious, He does things like that.

Living in sin (which you know you are doing or you wouldn't be asking this question) will get you the reward of eternal separation from God. The unforgiveable sin is blashemy against the Holy Spirit. You can repent and live right and still go to heaven, but you can't continue what you're doing now and go to heaven just because it isn't the unforgiveable sin. You still have the responsibility of repentence.
Mr 3:29
but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation"--

The only sin that is unforgivable is not beliving in the Holy Spirit.
That is grieving the Holy Spirit. Them other ones are forgivable. God only ment man and woman together. The reason why was to mutiply. Hope this helps I am a Pastor

You will not go to hell b/c you are a lesbian anymore than I will go to hell b/c I am a liar. You DO NOT go to hell b/c of what you do. You go to hell b/c you reject Christ. The only way to get to heaven is to believe that you are a sinner, that God loves you in spite of this, and that Christ's death on the cross made you free from sin. If you believe this, then you will go to heaven, no matter what else you may do/feel. There are many things that I do that I know the Bible is against, but that doesn't mean I'm going to hell. Please email me if you want to know more.

I can't quote any specific verse in the Bible that might help you, but maybe you could talk to a minister or priest. There are churches that do not judge gays. I know that the Methodist Church's philosophy is "Open Doors, Open Hearts, Open Minds". Maybe you could start there.
I'm really trying not to get on a soap box because I personally do not believe that being gay is a sin. Good luck to you with figuring things out. I'm sure it's tough.
