If I lead a good life, but sin right before I die without asking forgiveness, I go to hell?

Question

but someone who leads a bad life, but takes a "mulligan" right before they kick the bucket gets to go to heaven?

that sounds like a pretty silly system to me

Answer 1

you expect religion to make any sense?

Answer 2

it actually sounds like perfection, as the one who is asking for forgivness, must infact be desiring and truthfully sorrowful. Hwoever for one to commit a knowing sin, but feel they are "excused" because they have lived an admiral life, which is impossible, shows the gred of that person and should be punished


I dig the cross though, who knew you felt such sympathy towards christ.

Answer 3

Getting to heaven is not about living a good life. It is Christ's saving grace. Once we accept this once in our lives, this is all that is needed (Hebrew ch. 10). Every sin is equal in that it only takes one to separate a person from God. Sinning right before you die does not exclude a person from heaven if they have already placed their faith in Christ.

Answer 4

I am sorry no one can live a good enough life to get to heaven its only through Jesus we have any hope of avoiding hell but now is the time to accept him you can not leave it to the last moment

Answer 5

Sin separates man from God, whether the sin package is "small" or 'big'. It is the separation itself that matters. When we receive Christ's forgiveness, that separation is bridged completely, regardless of what state we were in, or what we may have done, prior to it.

Answer 6

Well you can do whatever you want but you don't need to be pefect the only way to gotoheaven is belive inGod thatis it no matter waht the sin
