My brother said God will punish me for having a baby without being married . Someone said "I think God might punish him for being unforgiving !" . Now I'm worried about my brother . Will God punish him for being judgemental and unforgiving ? How will God punish him ? Is my brother a frog or a prince ?

Your brother sounds not only judgmental, but cruel! Having a baby is difficult, esp. when society says you should be married. You're dealing with enough, without his disapproval.
I don't know about the whole god/forgiveness thing, but try to live in THIS life and decide what to do. If he apologizes, then maybe you can forgive him, but if he doesn't, he is probably not a good influence for you or your new child.
Give him the cold shoulder and see what he does. If he's still acting like a FROG, just say (if he asks), "I don't need toxic people in my life. If you can't love me for who I am, then good-bye!". It stinks, but you'll be better off than always worrying what he (or anyone else!) thinks.

There's no such thing as god, so no, god won't be punishing anyone. The use of force is the measurement of evil. Having a baby without being married doesn't harm anyone in any way. So how could he be deserving of punishment? Think, don't just obey the lies people have told you. A god who would punish you for doing something that harms no one would be unjust and immoral.

If god is so wonderful how come s/he can do such terrible things as allow war and disease? There is no god. Goodness and evil come from within. No, god won't punish you for having a baby while unmarried and no, your brother won't be 'punished' for being judgemental etc. But he may find that he loses friends and that not too many people want to be with him.

God doesn't punish anyone. However for those that say, then why does he let bad things happen? I say it's because God gave us free will, we make our choices and things happen. God isn't going to punish you or your brother. God already knew you were going to have a baby wayyyy before you did. Your brother will come around, just give him some time.

God will punish everyone who doesn't except his son Jesus Christ a there savior, and who doesn't walk in his ways, and that punishment is eternal separation from him, in the lake of fire. the cool thing is there forgiveness in Jesus, it's not like God's going to have bad things happen to you if you mess up, now there's always consequences for our actions, but he not looking down, and on you, and saying oh she had a kid out of wedlock, ok she get this, and her brother well he's unforgiving he get this, God being a perfect God, needs to judge all sin the same, and everyone of us sin, it all boils down to if you die in your sins with out Jesus Christ being your lord and savior, you will go to hell. If you have questions like this go find a nice Christian church, ask to speak to someone there, and tell them whats on your heart

Unforgiveness is a sin, and your brother will be punished , if he doesn't repent and make things right. What that punishment will be is up to God, no human can understand the mind of God, or what he will do, and why He does what he does.

Your brother is going to punish hisself. When you hold grudges toward people, you are the one who will be miserable. Sometimes the person that you are holding the grudge against does not even know that you are upset with them, so they are not bother! And don't worry yourself about your brother or the comment that he made. God is a forgiving God! Ask for it! Your brother has to ask for forgiviness too!

God will not punish him if he askes him to forgive him of all of his sins, but God will only forgive him of his sins if he has accepted the lord as his christ and savior and let him into his heart. If he hasn't accepted the lord into his heart you could pray to the lord and ask him to forgive him of all of his sins and protect him.
