Can you really go to heaven after committing so many sins. A by sins I mean like murder, rape, and child molestation. Can God really forgive you after doing all that?

HE sure can, if that person turns to HIM and repents his sins and truly ask forgiveness and ask Jesus into his heart and accepts God as his savior, and will obey the rules of God and try to wALk in God's footsteps and follow HIS ways. He really has to turn his life around and truly be a believer. Remember a thief died on a cross beside Jesus and ask forgiveness and was saved and went to heaven with Jesus.
There have been many who have been in pen and other places that cam to know Jesus and began to study HIS word and became a child of God. We are all Children of God and HE loves us all. He is our father and will treat us a father actually does. If you are bad, you will be punished and if you are good you will be rewarded and always unconditional love.

That's the beauty of GOD.....GOD can forgive anything and everything as long as we truly repent.....now I know alot of ppl are going to disagree with that but you cant really consider yourself "Christian", Muslim, or any other religion, faith, or belief system (even atheists) unless you belive in some form of forgiveness.....As a believer in Christ and all he stood for, I firmly believe that as long as I follow his teachings and his guidelines to the best of my abilites, he will keep his word and take care of me......now that doesnt mean we should just do want we want but it does sometimes make believers like myself lazy and "backslide" into doing things that we shouldnt do.....those acts you describe are very severe and we (people) would never be able , in most all cases, be able to forgive anyone of any of that because they're too awful.....but that's God's specialty......I wish I remembered my scripture better for you to read some verses and decide for yourself if that's something you want........forgiveness that is

Yes.....sin is just sin, theres no grading scale of which is worse, Once you truly repent for the sin God forgives and get this he forgets it ever happend. Im still trying to wrap my head around the death penalty though. Great question....Mark 1:4
4John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness (desert), preaching a baptism [[d]obligating] repentance ([e]a change of one's mind for the better, heartily amending one's ways, with abhorrence of his past sins) in order [f]to obtain forgiveness of and release from sins.

yes thats the wonderful thing about God..the only sin he won't forgive if a person is TRULY sorry and TRULY regretful is not believing in Him.
God forgives thing which I personally CANNOT forgive such as the things you listed all of which I dont have the words to describe how reprehensible I find.
I think it is because in heaven God takes away all the pain that the victims of such ppls atrocious crime have suffered.

That's up to God as to who he forgives and for what. How ever,
I can't imagine heaven as being a very nice place if there are a bunch of bad people running around.

Really and truly if I was God I wouldn't forgive them but in the bible it says that when you ask for forgiveness that God will forgive you. But your still not suppose to repeat those sins over and over again.

What, did u molest a child, then rape it, then murder it? if so, then pray, and if u come with a true heart, God will forgive you. Of course, I doubt you did that, but still, if you pray and ask to be forgiven, God will forgive you if he know that you are being true. =]

I think if you truly mean it and learn from your mistakes God will forgive you. People may not forgive you but God will if you're being honest.

As unfathomable as it is to the human mind, yes. If asked for, God will grant forgiveness.
