The only act that truly gets you into hell is rejecting the One who loved you enough to die a torturous death to pay for the penalty of your sins. That is Jesus Christ.
"Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the name of God's unique Son." (John 3:18)
If you are asking this question, it makes me wonder if you desire to commit a sacrilegious act (whatever that means). If you are concerned about it, why bother thinking of it?

No.
Even if you assume that God and Hell and sin and all that is real, the answer is still no.
According to christian mythology, all you have to do is ask for forgiveness (sincerely... it's not about the words you say, but rather your underlying feelings... Are you truly sorry? Are you truly different?). Supposedly, God will always forgive you.
Seven times? No. Seventy times seven (which, in the poetic way things were written in that area at that time, actually means "a lot" or "always," not literally 490 times).
In addition, IMO, there is no Hell (at least not in the way "christians" imagine it). Most of the references to hell in the Bible were mistranslations of other words. Many of them referred to actual, physical towns in the Middle East... some of them referred to states of being brought on by embracing the self-serving path (which, really, is just simple cause-and-effect). As someone else here pointed out, several of the words just meant "grave." Much of it was metaphor.
Don't believe me? Look it up. Don't just read the KJV or whatever bible you use either, look up interpretations of language experts. Find translations that show the original Aramaic, Hebrew, etc, and compare the words against how they're translated. You'll be horrified at how many times "Hell" actually appears in the bible in the way christians normally imagine it:
Zero times. That's how many.
The mistranslation of various words in the Bible is well-known at this point, but christian leaders don't want to change thousands of years of teaching just to reflect the truth... it would call the rest of their teachings into question as well. So, instead, they just ignore the mistranslations and continue teaching the wrong stuff...
I guess, to some people, power and tradition are more important than the Bible's actual words...

the bible doesn't teach or show that there is a hell...the two words that the bible use from its original languages are Hades and Sheol....and those two words mean the same but are written in a different language....is like in english and spanish words....water and agua....they mean the same....so hades and sheol....are translated as hell....but it doesn't mean that....they mean tomb, bones, skeleton, dip, hole, so they relate to the place where you go when you die, which is the grave.....not a burning place as many people believe in hell....so a person cannot be condemn into a burning hell place...because it doesn't exists.....so the person that dies, awaits to be resurrected by God at the end of this wicked system of things....so there is hope for all those who have died and we are going to be able to see them again in the resurrection...

Your actions you will have to account for. any sin or act that is contrary to the will of God unrepentant of has the potential to send you to hell. That's why we have a savior who's blood washes most of our sin's clean if we but let him do it by believing in him. Murder and sins against the Holy Ghost are the exceptions.

What do you define as a sacrileges act? Regardless according to Christian hypocrisy you can kill someone...not be Christian but accept Christ into your heart and avoid hell...or ask God for forgiveness and avoid hell. Theoretically everyone will avoid hell and responsibility for their actions. A crock of bleep is what all this is, but it's what some believe in and as much as some of us disagree we have to respect it. PEACE!!

No - Christ died as a sacrifice for any sinful act that you can ever commit. If you accept Him as your savior, his sacrifice will cover you.

we are all condemned to hell, except Christ made a way for us.

No! Because there are no sacreligeous acts and there is no Hell. There. Happy?
