if you commit the same sin over and over, knowing it's wrong, will God forgive you over and over?

Answer 1

Peter asked the Lord a similar question. "Lord, what if my brother sins against me? How many times must I forgive him? Seven?" Now, seven was the number to represent eternity. Jesus answered," No not seven but seventy times seven!"

Even if you are not true to your word, God is always true to His.

Answer 2

There is actually no such thing as sin so there is no need to forgive them, but God has never forgiven anybody anything since the beginning of time. Jesus is not the same god as God even if he was divine, and anyway with there being no sin his whole "coming" is pointless, just a ploy to give people a reason to love God.

Answer 3

No. I think that (in theory) when you ask God for forgiveness, you have to actually mean it. If you really want forgiveness, because you really are sorry, you won't do it again.

But, if you commit the same sin over and over AND THEN ask God for forgiveness, than yes, he will forgive you (I think...)

Answer 4

In the Gospel Jesus speaks many times of those "who's spirit is willing, but flesh is weak", of those "saved on the 11th hour", of the forgiveness of God being "infinite for us" and so shall we forgive infinitely.

Forgiveness is not letting guilty people off the hook and murderers wandering free, it is the letting go of hate and resentment with your brother/sister/self. "every man sins and falls short of the glory of God." Knowing that, your energies should go towards seeking God and forgiveness will follow.

Being personally assured of your forgiveness and coming to terms with your own faults isn't usually an overnight thing. It should be something that comes with the knowledge that you are every growing in devotion to God and that "he" respects that direction you are taking. Once you realize that, you will KNOW that God is ever forgiving. Until then, it may just be words.

To be saved on the 11th hour, or sooner, this implies you seek ways to let your guard down and allow yourself to be saved or to confess (if you are Catholic) [same difference]. Let in God's message that continues to try to reach you. God's attempt is active and always, but humans are sometimes passive listeners.

Answer 5

That depends on what you think sin is and what you think God thinks about sin. The question to ask would be why are you committing it if you believe it's a sin, and how that affects what you think about God.

Answer 6

Forgiveness has to do with your intention. You must intend never to commit that sin again or reconciliation is not complete--according to Classical Christianity. You must work to correct your sins since they are errors that separate you from God.

Answer 7

No he will not forgive you over and over because to have him forgive you the first time you have to promise to never do it again and if you do the same sin over again he won't forgive you because that means you lied to him.

Answer 8

You can keep saying no to God's grace and continue in sinning...but there is going to be one time when you say no for the final time.....then you reach the point of no return.....God gives you over to a reprobate mind....and thats the unforgivable sin...deliberately and repeatedly resisting the Holy Spirit......

Answer 9

Sure if that is what you belive your god is like. Some people in the world do not even belive in a god and therefore do not belive in sin. I would not want to be part of a religion in wich my god were to threaten me in such ways.

Answer 10

If you have Christ as your savior....yes. He died to completly forgive us from our sin. Sin seperates us from God, so our relationship is not as good, but he is always waiting with open arms.
