You are unable to fix your sins... they are over and done with. You need to consentrate on doing things a different way from this day forward.

That is just Satan trying to make you feel like they are not forgiven. The Bible says that once you give your sins to Jesus he throws them as far away as the East is from the West. Also that they are thrown into the sea of forgetfulness so God will never bring them up.

Sins against the Holy Spirit can never be forgiven for example the total denial or rejection of the death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
That is a great sign that you want to repent for your sins. God Bless
You will need to go to the Sacrement of Reconciliation to confess your sins and recieve absolution and regain the life of Grace in the soul. Jesus has instructed us to do this for he gave His Apostles to be instruments of this Sacrement in which Jesus
works through.

Yes all sins are forgiven and forgotten by God if you truelly repent and ask for forgiveness. Works can not and will not save you, only the blood of Christ, if you believe in Christ and ask for forgiveness then God will cast your sins in the "sea of forgetfulness" never to remember them again.

Now I'm REALLY confused!

I had the SAME question!



"YES, that is called penance."

"....ask for your forgivness and try to fix ur problem"

"You are unable to fix your sins"

"No, all you have to do is ask forgiveness and they are forgiven. You dont have to do a penance of any kind"

"...we are sinful by nature, but if we ask forgiveness then we are sinless, but we are never as sinless as Jesus, who paid for our sins on the cross. "

"Sins against the Holy Spirit can never be forgiven"

"Yes all sins are forgiven and forgotten by God if you truelly repent and ask for forgiveness"

Yes, you have to ask for forgiveness. You can't just go around sinning saying, "oh well, God will forgive me anyways." Remember the story of the woman who was about to be stoned, and Jesus told the stoners that whoever was without sin could cast the first stone? Then he said to her "Go and Sin no more." He doesn't want us to sin. Yes, we are sinful by nature, but if we ask forgiveness then we are sinless, but we are never as sinless as Jesus, who paid for our sins on the cross.

that could not the way Christianity works. you may't deliberately do some thing that you realize is a sin and then convey regret. i can't say for constructive that suicide is a sin besides.. there are a range of diverse perspectives on that subject matter and that i'm not God so i do not understand. i for my area does not want to take the chance and discover out the problematic way contained in the great.

No all you have to do is ask forgiveness and they are forgiven. You dont have to do a penance of any kind. You ask Gods forgiveness and if you truly mean it and are repentant it is given.

Sin is making mistakes. And we will make mistakes till the day we die.
The idea is that God understands the nature of our world, and it's okay.
So we don't have to indulge in excuses and justifying, which gives one an
attitude, and turns into recklessness!

Jesus died once for all sin, accept it as truth and quit beating yourself up. If you could fix your own sin Jesus wouldn't had to die for atonement. Ask the Lord for peace.
