Forgiveness is divine but I was raised to belive their are just some things you can't be forgiven for BECAUSE you can't take it back.
Thieves can give back what they stole.
Liars can tell the truth
But rapists, can't return the innocence to thier victims or erase thier trauma
Murderers can't give life back to thier victims.
I'm not saying God can't acknolege thier remorse if it is indeed genuine but I don't think they can dodge the eternal consquences of thier actions just the same. What do you think?
Too little too late
or do you think murder and rape can be forgiven?
I have my opinon but I want to know what you think so. .
Tell Matticus he WANTS to KNOW.

Life experiences happen the way they happen. Some are morbid, but after the deed is done, each is left with how they deal with it. If truly surrendered and remorseful for what one has done then all should be forgiven.
We are human and make mistakes and that does not condem us to a miserable life. I was molested a few times as a young child and I believe that if I was able to forgive the people that did this to me, then why couldn't God.
The love of God is in all of us. Who am I to judge and say who goes to hell or heaven. The only thing that I am responsible is for forgiveness,unconditional love, and when I AM WRONG make ammends.
True that the innocence can never be repaid, but is also on that person to find forgiveness in their hearts and move on from being a victim. They too can live a fulfilling life if they choose.

There are things that have gone on since the beginning of time, that only GOD might forgive, if the soul is sent to burn for a thousand years, to hurt a child, to treat your dog who has papers on it better than your child , hopefully will not be over looked, and those who father children and walk away are just as bad, or the Mother's that put their career or wants first, while their babies look like orphan's, Sorry, this is a bad subject for me to get started on. It's easy way out to say you found the LORD, when you know its almost over

The only way they make it to heaven is if God has found them first. There is always a consequence to what a person does. If they get the death sentence that is the consequence of the laws they broke. It doesn't return the person that they murdered, or raped. But is a consequence. I do not believe that has anything really to do with the spiritual side of it. God will bring them to heaven if they are destined to go to heaven. Only God can make that judgment.

According to the Bible God views all sins alike. You're just as likely to go to hell for lying on a job application as you are for raping a baby.
I don't believe everything I read.
I don't believe in Heaven or Hell either. I believe in Karma and reincarnation.

I really don't believe in god. But I think rapists and child molesters should suffer alot more.

Yes! Remember the thief next to Jesus on his crucifix - he said he believed and JC told him he'd be going to heaven!

Jesus said they are forgiven.
Are you claiming to be a higher authority than Him? It sure sounds like it to me.
