Yes, grace means no strings attached. It's not up to us to decide whom God will forgive, when or why.

God is like a ginormous dad. He loves you so much, that he is willing to let what you did go in a matter of miliseconds. Pretend what you did is like a videotape. When you ask God for forgiveness he throws that video soo far deep in the garbage that nobody can get it. This is so unconceivable to the human, and because of that we tend to rewind the videotape and feel bad again about what youve done and God doesn't like that. He treats all his children the same. But you have to accept Jesus as your lord and saviour, and understand that he died on the cross so that you can be forgiven.

psalms 37:1,2: "do not show yourself heated up because of the evil-doers....for like grass they will speedily wither, and like green new grass they will fade away."

psalms 37:9: "for the evil-doers themselves will be cut off, but those hoping in Jehovah are the ones that will possess the earth."

revelation 22:15: "outside are the dogs and those who practive spiritism and the fornicators and the murdrers and the idolaters and everone liking and carrying on a lie."

the verse above from revelatin specifically states the types of persons God is NOT forgiving...if he was that ever-error-pardoning-God, who are the "evil-doers" that he is obviously NOT forgiving in the above passages?

Nobody knows God. Nobody knows if this "forgiving" concept is even something relevant to the creator of the universe. All the smart people above seem to have inside information on a topic which is far beyond the knowledge of mere humans.

Just because they read a book and some idiot interpreter declares to have derived some enlightenment, doesn't mean they have knowledge of anything.

God will forgive those who repent of their sins. In his eyes, no sin is greater than the next and his desire is that all people come to know and love him. By true faith, we shall be forgiven and through Christ Jesus we shall be saved.

Until you draw your last breath, you have all the opportunity you need to find the the holy spirit and come to Christ. God will forgive all of your sins. All you need do is ask.

Yes, if you have acheived a state of grace, he will forgive, you only need ask. Some believe you must be a Christian, but I tend to think God sees us all as his children, so he will forgive us.

Only the ones that admit they don't have all the facts...like Job.
Know-it-alls cannot be forgiven, because they're so busy talking, judging, accusing, blaming, intimidating, extorting, bribing, selling, buying, advertising, competing, fighting, arguing, ridiculing, cursing and blaspheming they don't have time to hear the verdict of the Judge! And who but the Judge knows it all? Who was it that started judging man unworthy to begin with? As far as I know, it wasn't God...but that 'covering cherub'...

We are all equal to God who forgives anyone who repents, and asks for forgiveness with a willing heart that follows Him. God wants that no one should perish. But the choice to accept His Son Jesus and to follow Him is up to us. God bless

yes the Bible says that God is not willing that any should perish it also says in 1 John 1:9 that if you confess your sins He is faithful and just to forgive you and cleanse you from all unrighteousness, John 3:16 probably the most familiar of all scripture says for God so love the WORLD that He gave His only beggoten son that WHOSOEVER believes in Him will not die but have everlasting life.
