If you truly ask God for repentance and believe Jesus died for the world's sins, then all of them.

Someone in the Bible asked how many times he was supposed to forgive his brother and Jesus told him 70 times 7, so I suppose that may apply. I know that if you commit a sin and are truly sorry that the Lord forgives you for it. You should make every attempt not to commit that sin again.

As many times as you confess those sins and ask for forgiveness-- as long as you truly try to change. Repenting is necessary, but requires that you stop that nasty behavior. Remember though that our Lord is gracious and forgiving Lord and wants you in heaven with Him. Keep praying and He will give you the strength that you need.

Seven times 70 -- or, an infinite number of times. The only sin God will not forgive is the grieving of the Holy Spirit, meaning the sin of unbelief.

I think His fogiveness is limitless. Yet, I also believe some people allow a particular sin to get in their way of reconciliation with God. Again, they are choosing a particular act/sin over God. People nowadays assume sexual sins, but more than likely it has to do w/ the heart.
Psalm 14:1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
It doesn't say, in his mind, in his brain, in his head, etc.

God will forgive us as long as we repent, no matter how many times.

Sin is fatal to our existence, but God delights to forgive us our sins. We need not perish, although "all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God" (Rom. 3:23). Jesus died to earn the right to forgive repentant sinners.

But there is one sin that is unpardonable and inevitably results in eternal death. When someone refuses to respond to the goodness of God, which is designed to lead unto repentance (Rom. 2:4), this continued refusal to accept God's overtures of grace will finally result in the commission of the unpardonable sin.

The unpardonable sin, or the sin against the Holy Spirit, is persistent rejection of light, the persistent rejection of what Christ has done for us. This rejection inevitably blinds the spiritual eyes and hardens the rejecter's heart to the wooings of the Spirit, as the example of those leaders in Israel. Finally, there is utter darkness in the soul, and the person is eternally lost because he or she has ruined his or her soul's perceptivity to the promptings of the Spirit.

Placing one's self beyond the power of the Holy Spirit is "unpardonable" because we cannot even repent without the aid of the Spirit of God. God can't do anything for us unless He forces us, which He won't do. We have, through our own choices, cut ourselves off from salvation.

He'll forgive you every time... but if you continue to do the same sin, you aren't truly asking for forgiveness and giving it to God. If you are truly asking for forgiveness, you'll sop that sin... but yeah that's harder than it sounds i've tried to stop one sin many times... He'll still forgive you though

It is the intent, Sometimes we allow the moment to take control and we just don't pay attention, we fall pray to our situation. Other time we do it knowingly willingly.

Forgiveness must by ask for with sincerity of heart. We all fall but the real trick is to get back up and continue on.

It is not the fall that gets us it is what we do after the fall. That is where faith comes into action.

What are you truly doing after. That is what God looks at.

properly, considering God forgives all sins, we ought to always be prepared to forgive all of them. yet it really is way a lot less stressful suggested than executed. i does not have forgiven a large style of people with out His help. and that i'm nevertheless attempting for some.

He will forgive you as many times as you do it, as long as you are truly contrite.

I find, that when I keep making the same mistake over and over, I ask God to grant me the strength to overcome whatever the desire to make these mistakes. I also trust that he is always there to help me and support me and will forgive me as long as I am always doing my best to learn.
