what will i do if god doesnt forgive me for my sins after i die?

Answer 1

i think we do the best we can in this life and just the fact that you are concerned shows alot about your character and who you will become and if god is anything close to human, which he should be because he made us in his likeness, he will understand that in fact we are only human and we have the odds against us daily. and if he knows all to come im sure he is already feeling sorry for some of us and is just waiting for us to ask.

Answer 2

Sorry, this is long. But I hope it does help with your question.

Not to be critical, but this is faulty logic at work here. In my own experience, I've learned how to forgive myself of my own sins. So to say that I have the capacity to forgive myself while existing under a God that can't forgive is a logical fallacy. That would mean God is hostile. If that is the case, then living on this Earth would be an attempt to escape His hostility. If He created everything, how could He possibly create a creature that can show more compassion, forgiveness, and love than Himself? Impossible.

A person who has more peace with the world realizes that even forgiveness itself is not, nor has ever been, necessary. This is a huge mental concept to understand. When you come to realize that no one can offend, disgrace, or hurt you, then you simultaneously realize there is nothing to forgive because there was never an offense commited. To the mind caught in the illusion, however, forgiveness is a really great tool to heal and move on. Forgiveness is the training wheels that keeps an innocently ignorant mind from losing itself to insanity. Once the mind understands that it is not necessary, that there is no such thing as offense out there, then the mind can discard the use of forgiveness.

When that moment happens, an enlightenment occurs. (Literally: lightening of a load on the mind.) It's one less illusion to hold onto and, I believe, one step closer to the Divine Mind: the way that God sees the world. God is the one that can see through all illusions. It is an illusion that you could hurt, offend, or disgrace God. Not possible. Because you are inseparable from God. The Ego-Self might believe in the separation from God, but that's a falsity. It's as if your child might emotionally say he is no longer your son and refuses to speak to you. Despite his emotional distancing, it doesn't refute the fact that he is still biologically your son.

If you truly and unconditionally love your son and you realize that in rejecting you he is merely trying to protect himself and his own sanity, you would allow that. You would (for)give him that and understand that there is nothing separating you and him except his own thoughts. You would see that he is absolutely doing the right thing based on what he is believing in the moment even if that belief is untrue. It is his job to undo the untrue belief and you would be patient to that undoing because you understand that it is his lot in this life to realize his own delusion or not (he may hold onto it to the end of his days). But, from where you stand, you realize everything is ok, that your son is not separate from you, that he cannot logically denounce you. If he comes to the realization and comes back to you and says, "Forgive me. I know that I was mistaken in thinking that you didn't unconditionally love me," you would realize there is nothing to forgive. It was his own innocent deception that if he had the capacity to know better he wouldn't have deceived himself in the first place.

Then for every insult, every rejection, every attempt to distance himself from you was done against a false image of you and was not the actual you he was trying to move away from. He was moving away from his IDEA of a person that didn't unconditionally love him. So even the offenses were not so because they were not directed at the real you.

This is our relationship with God (the Father). You could say that God won't forgive your sins when you die, because there were no sins you commited in the first place. But until you come to that understanding, just know that for every perceived sin out there, it has already been forgiven. This doesn't mean it's ok to sin. You know when you do it that it doesn't agree with you because you suffer when you do.

Hey Coop:

There would be nothing to do because God forgives all. No worries there buddy, nope. Your cool w/ God. As long as you ask God's forgiveness and you are truly sorry for wht you may have done, there is no question.

God forgives you!

Be safe and be well.

Answer 4

Try reading "The God Delusion" by Richard Dawkins.
It may raise your consciousness enough not to worry if your imaginary friend will get angry if you don't follow the rantings of ages past.
You have the privilege of living in the most enlightened times ever experienced by humanity. Try living up to what you know to be right and wrong (don't need a Bible for that one by the way).
YOU make your choices and the only torment YOU will suffer is the torment YOU put yourself through when YOU come to realise that YOU had the free will not to do the wrong that is such a worry.

Answer 5

The teachings of a Christian God suggest that there is no sin that God won't forgive if the sinner repents and makes the adjustments to his/her life to make penance. Therefore, if you are a devout believer - you've nothing to worry about. Personally I do not believe in God and hell and eternal torment, but rather that life is just a journey, a cylcle everyone goes through, and when you die the journey's done. No worries. No boogeyman that's going to poke you with a hot stick. But each of us believes different things, and if you believe in God, then you must believe that he forgives all - (unless you continue doing the horrible bad thing - whatever that is) and that is actually in the bible.

Answer 6

I can't believe some of the answers you are getting. If you believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is the son of God and His gift to you is eternal salvation, you will be saved. You should confess your sins, and in the process of your salvation, you will confess to God that you are a sinner. There is nothing that you can DO to insure salvation. It is a gift - all you need do is accept it. However, once you are saved, because of your belief in Jesus, you will want to do your best to live a life modeled after Him. Doesn't mean you'll be perfect - just that you will try. God will always forgive you time and time again, as long as you are truly repentant....so, just make sure that you are truly saved and you won't have a thing to worry about - because you will have a place in paradise!

Answer 7

God won't forgive you of your sins after you die. You must seek forgiveness now. The only way to get forgiveness of your sins is to accept Jesus Christ as your personal savior, and this must be done while you are alive. At death, you will either go to Heaven or Hell, depending solely upon whether or not you accepted Jesus into your heart while you were alive. At death, there is no turning back. You made your decision while you were alive. If you accept Jesus Christ as your savior, you will go to Heaven at your death; if you do not, you will go to Hell. "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."

Answer 8

I myself have wondered about that too. I wonder about alot of things like that. Like you supposedly won't get into Heaven if you haven't been baptized. Stuff like that. I personally don't think any human being can answer that question only God knows that answer, right.
By the way God, Heaven and all the Biblical names deserves the respect to capatilize the first letter. Good luck on the question though, and you can also open up the Bible and start reading it for the answers.

Answer 9

The question is not what you do for there is nothing you can do by that time it is to late. You either receive his forgiveness before you die or not. After you die you receive your reward heaven or hell, there is no bargaining with God.

Answer 10

Maybe you should worry about "your sins" before you die- go see a Catholic priest. Make sure you do your penance.

The most important thing is: don't commit the same sins again!!
