If you go to hell, are you there for eternity?

Question

No matter what, like if you really believed in Jesus and/or God, and solemnly asked for forgiveness, he'd be all: "You had your chance" So really that's it, you're just in hell forever. What if you forget to ask forgiveness for one sin, do you have to spend an eternity in hell? I really don't get it, and is it really an eternity, or until the revelations?

"The second chance will be at the end of days...

...which is soon.

ask me if you want details.."

So like Tuesday, if you know why wouldn't you tell us.

Sigh.

Answer 1

Hope not the cooking is terrible. Only one thing on the menu. Not to mention it's boring as er---hell! I was there once already and got kicked out. I talked so much I was driving Satan nuts. He couldn't wait to get rid of me. Now you are all stuck with me. Just your luck, right?

Answer 2

you have a large style of verses already. the different concept is God does no longer have sent his Jesus Christ into this international if the sin and hell weren't an undesirable place to spend eternity. And the end results of rejecting God death ont he go for individual who's an unrepentant sinner is intense. God's reward for somebody who repents is eternal existence which isn't momentary. it particularly is eternal reward. interior the occasion under God looks at every person interior the international as somebody to maintain for all eternity. each and every physique has a raffle now in this existence. otherwise once you stability the verses under with those from the different posters. One sees that eternity for a nonbeliever is eternal punishment. John 3:sixteen-17 For God so enjoyed the international that he gave his purely begotten Son that whosoever believeth on him does no longer perish yet have eternal existence. For God sent no longer his Son to sentence the international yet that the international by him could be saved.

Answer 3

I'm not real sure it's a matter of asking 'forgiveness for each sin' but a matter of accepting the price that Christ paid for those sins. Anything you remember should be confessed, the rest God knows and has taken care of already. Just believe and accept.

Answer 4

Get the book Eternal Security. It will explain every question you just asked and more. Leaving you with no doubt at all about what salvation is, how we still have sin nature and how we can never lose salvation once we are truly saved. However, once condemmed to hell after death, then No there is no other chance.

Answer 5

People go to hell because of unbelief, not the sins they commit. Think about that. That is clear from the Scripture. The first tiny sin you ever committed condemned you to hell. There is no way out except through God. Asking forgiveness will not fix it.

Answer 6

For those who are saved by God's grace and mercy and have accepted Christ as their Lord and Savior (those who are born again) will spend eternity in heaven. For the unsaved - those who do not know Christ as their Savior will spend eternity in hell, so the answer to your question is 'yes'. Once you're in hell, there is NO turning back!

John 3:3 - Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born gain, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

Answer 7

well, if your a Christian and TRULY, REALLY, HONESTLY love God then your safe. but if you forget to ask for forgiveness God will forgive you anyway because God doesnt hold anything against anyone. and God doesnt keep a list of ALL of your wrongs. forgive and forget thats the saying. and if your already in hell it really is eternity which is REALLY REALLY scary to think about.

Answer 8

Hell is forever. No exceptions.

"Abandon all hope, ye who enter here."

Regarding the standards God applies for judging one there, all we can do is speculate.

Let's hope God's mercy exceeds his justice.
