But with karma( reap what you sow) I see two things in place: One, God gesture won't go in vain. Two, abuses would be put in check.
What's your opinion on this?

The God of the bible doesn't want you to have to think or learn! Remember this God made the knowledge of good and evil forbidden!
Knowledge of good and evil doesn't give anyone a disposition toward either. It only gives you the ability to have a choice. It also enables you to learn from mistakes. But to the God of the bible you make one mistake ever and bam you are tossed into the flames of hell forever!
What a loving God!

No it wouldn't.
Isn't reaping what you sow the same as karma?
It is in no way God's fault the world is like it is. If we did what He said all of us then we'd be without crime ect... It is the human races choices that make the world a bad place. God gave us choice and He will not take it away. God wants his bride to come to Him of her own volition.

nicely, i visit inform you quite have a repenting spirit depending off your tale. the perfect position to search for convenience is the bible because it really is words exert powers. ( please study Hebrews 4:12) Reflecting on the tale of Manasseh, recorded at 2 Chronicles 33:a million-17, will surley convey you convenience. Manasseh became born in a God fearing abode, equivalent to you. even with the undeniable fact that, he too did stray from God's way. He dedicated GROSS SINS. He served faux gods, and he sacrificed his sons to hearth, he practiced magic, and consulted fortune tellers (2 Chronicles 33:3-6) To us, a number of those sins may look Unforgivable. even with the undeniable fact that, remember what Hebrews 4:12 reported. Manasseh did finally end up going into captivity. His kinfolk wasn't punished for his sins. even with the undeniable fact that, the self-discipline proved to be good for Manasseh because he ended up repenting and turning decrease back to God. DID GOD FORGIVE HIM? 2 Chronicles 33: 12-13 well-knownshows that by truthful repentance , Manasseh became forgiven. If God forgave GROSS sins interior the previous, he wil surley forgive sins interior the way ahead for truthful hearted persons. Psalms 86:5 - For you, O Jehovah, are good and in a position to forgive; And the loving-kindness to all those calling upon you is ample.

God may forgive the sin, but it doesn't mean He will erase the consequences of sin. And EVERYONE sins. It's human nature. He uses our own sins to teach and discipline us. For example....before I was a christian (not that I don't sin, but I wanted to be clear for understanding) I had premarital sex. I became pregnant. I married and after I was married and had a little one, I became a christian. God forgave all my sins at the cross, but he won't "unpregnant" me just because I am forgiven. I was allowed to carry the baby and having the baby is what truly made me see my lifestyle was taking hostages. My wreckless behaviour dragged this little baby into it and affected my "boyfriend" and future husbands life as well. We have had so many issues to deal with because of the way we came together. But now hubby and I are christian, raising our children christian and have been married 10 years now. It was because of the consequences of that sin (fornication) that I realized I was not right with God. And that baby was a blessing. He was the blessing I did not deserve...and was God's expression of love to me and my husband. Just wanted to relate my personal experience and opinion.

We are forgiven are sins are blotted out but we still have to deal with what we have done and change our lives for the better. I feel if you stop what you have done and show others in your life that its wrong and how they should seek forgiveness you have went back and sowed good seeds! God Bless!

We have to learn from our mistakes and repent of our sins, or God won't forgive us. Karma (what goes around, comes around)
if you don't repent, you're punished. Luke 13:3

God makes His forgiveness of our sins available to us through Jesus. The point is that we are incapable of leading sinless lives and so, in order to make salvation possible for us He sent His Son (who did lead a sinless life) to be sin for us because we could never make the grade otherwise.
Joh 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (KJV)

forgiveness is only granted if there is repentance. its not a matter of learning from your mistake, but of agreeing with God that your sin is wrong and changing your actions so that you won't continue to live in that habitual sin anymore

God forgives us because he loves us. God knows everyone single mistake we're ever going to make in our lifetime, and still He forgives us. He does that because He is LOVE.

That would be the whole point of "repent and forsake"...if one does not forsake the sin, repeats it, it will be as if he never repented in the first place...
