Why does God forgive every sin accept for the sin of "not choosing" to believe in Jesus?

Answer 1

If you want to get into a concert, don't you have to have a ticket? If you choose to believe that you can get in without a ticket, does it change the fact that you need to have one? Will the management at the event change their mind because they suddenly think you're all that? Of course not, they'll make you leave until you have a ticket.

In the same way, you can't be forgiven, unless you receive the ticket that Jesus purchased for you. All you have to do is receive it. Is it His fault if you stubbornly refuse to take it?

Reality is the same, whether we speak of spiritual truth or earthly truth. The major difference here is you don't have to buy the ticket. Jesus already did. But if you don't believe it, and act on it, it's not His fault.

Answer 2

You misunderstand. Denying Jesus as Savior is not a sin - He just makes it possible for us to turn away from sin.

Imagine that you gave a gift to someone. This gift required an incredible amount of effort and pain to craft it, but when you present it, the intended recipient says "I'm good enough without your gift. I don't want or need it." Would you feel like that person would be welcomed by you in the future? They have already made their choice well known. Would you co ntinue to offer giftrs & invitations forever, only to be denied and even berated every time? That's what you dso when you reject God's gift of Jesus. So is it any wonder that God isn't going to fall over backward to allow youi into Heaven when you refused His most precious gift?

Answer 3

That is the Christian God who does not forgive that sin. Not everyone has the same god.
Because that is the whole point of Christianity. That Jesus died for your sins. If you don't believe that, you are not a Christian. If you only believe in God from the old testament, you are Jewish.

Answer 4

Because Jesus Christ died on a Cross and Rose again to pay the debt for your sins, and provide a way to be forgiven. The Bible says that in order to be forgiven is to Repent, which means to say your sorry for your sins, turn away from them, and put your complete Trust in Jesus Christ. Jesus is the only way to be forgiven and enter Heaven, so if you don't do these things then you've chose Hell over Jesus and Heaven.

Answer 5

That is what it takes. God offers you a free gift of salvation through Jesus Christ, if you refuse the gift God can not allow you in heaven, because your sin separates you from God. The blood of Jesus covers that sin and you are no longer separated from God.

Answer 6

Would you to be friends with someone who didn't care about you or someone you loved, or for that matter didn't think you existed although they heard about you and the things you've done? If you choose, which is one of the many gifts we have - FREE WILL, not to believe then why even care if someone / anyone, in this matter God, would forgive you. Remember forgiveness is not just saying, 'hey I can do or say whatever I want and everyone is to forgive me'. If you willfully do something knowing that it is wrong and don't want to change than don't expect forgiveness. God is a God of Love but to those who except Him and his son, those that don't want anything to do with Him don't even need to bother asking unless they question the fact of His existence. In that case I think you would want to get answers to question like: who is He? what type of person is He? who is His son? what has He done for me? and what will He do for me and for those I love?

Answer 7

It's convenient for the Chirstians to forget the Commandment about bringing FALSE God(s) before Me so of course the sin of not choosing Jesus is unforgivable. The elevation of Jesus to sit next to or near God (if there is one) is plain and simple blastphemy. Nothing more or less. PEACE!

Answer 8

I think that this was made by people who wanted to promote Christianity over other religion & increase its following

Somehow, i have noticed that in the past centuries man has tried to impose their thinking over others, by force or by convincing

All religion say more or less the same/similar things
and most of them say, if you don't believe in Jesus/God/Allah/Baghwan, then you are going to hell

So i feel that this point of not believing in Jesus or Allah or anyone else was created by people who wanted the popularity of their religion to grow more than the other religion
forgetting completely the core purpose of the religion and its essence

How can someone who forgave his killers not forgive some one who does not believe in him
Jesus was indeed great, & greatness is shown in actions of forgiveness.

Answer 9

yes that is right. This is the unpardonable sin of blasphemy against the Holy Ghost. When you turn away the Holy spirit which is what draws all men to Jesus then you can't be saved. When the Spirit is drawing you to be saved, then you must answer at that time. When you turn away the Holy Spirit then you have commited blasphemy. If you die in that state then there is no hope.

Answer 10

Think of accepting Christ as a silver bullet, spiritually speaking, capable of curing all the past diseases you might have had affecting your soul. By accepting him you are able to wash away all of your past transgressions, but by not accepting Christ you remain in your previous sinful form.

Before he returned to Heaven, Jesus essentially gave a step by step guide of how to get to heaven, as long as you follow those you remain in pretty good shape. I suggest that you read the first few Gospels and then see if that helps you better understand your question.
