God does not say that he will forgive you of this but not of that. He says that He will forgive anything you bring to Him no matter how great or small. It does not matter what you have done it was never meant to be your burden to carry. Give it to God and then quit thinking about what you have done. BTW just so you know that's a small one.

Your entry into heaven isn't based on what or how many sins you have committed, but whether or not you have accepted the gift of God's grace through faith in Jesus Christ who died for the atonement of all sins all who trust Him have ever committed or will ever commit.
Yes, you can ask forgiveness for pre-marital sex and all other sins if you are truly a Christian Jesus' blood covers those sins. The only unpardonable sin is rejecting Christ--that's what will determine whether or not you go to heaven. I pray that if you haven't accepted Christ as your Savior that you will do so, & if you don't understand how to do this, you will search the Scriptures (Book John, Romans, and 1 John would be good places to start) and seek out a Christian pastor or mature Christian friend to help you. DON'T rely just on the answers you get on this forum--too many people on here don't understand it themselves or will try to confuse you on purpose!

The only thing that will keep you out of Heaven is rejecting God and what He is offering you.
All who come to God in The Way He prescribes will receive His free gift of Salvation. those become part of The Church of which Jesus The Christ is The Head. Those are the ones of The True Christian Faith. Only those of The Church will enter Heaven.
I you do not know if you have met the requirements... then you have not.... But just having "pre-marital" sex... or commiting any other sin... will not prohibit youfrom entering Heaven... but you must come to God in The Way He prescribes... not in your own way or in the way some man invented "denomination's" doctrine says...
If you have questions concerning the basics of The True Christian Faith, feel free to email me.

According to the Bilble if you ask for forgiveness you will be forgiven. If you keep commiting the same sin (ie. premarital sex) that is where the lack of repentence comes in. The Bible says we must repent. So, one must try their best not commit sins, but know that if you do, you will be forgiven.

Yes, you can. Warnings against premarital sex are not to keep you out of heaven, they are to keep you from getting your heart broken.
Sometimes you think you are in love, but if you keep having sex with no other grounds for a relationship, there may come a point where you find that your lover is a stranger to you.

The way to heaven is through belief in Jesus Christ.
God has two standards: holy and sinful. Holy is pure and right in God's eyes. Everything that is not holy is sinful. Every single person on earth sins everyday. A white lie is just as sinful as murder in God's eyes.
So, if we use God's standards to judge ourselves, we can see that we will never be good enough to go to heaven. That is why God sent His Son, Jesus, to die for our sins, in our place.
Whatever sin you commit will be forgiven if you believe that Jesus was God's Son sent to earth to die in your place, and if you ask for forgiveness and turn away from yur sin.

Murderes and adulterers can be considered "a man after God's own heart" as proved by David in the Bible. God loves us all. No matter what. You must ask Jesus to forgive you and turn away from your sin. Ask Him to help you if you have a hard time doing it. if you mess up, KEEP TRYING. God knows your heart and loves you.

According to the Bible, you can repent and ask for forgiveness.
The hardest thing for us to do, in human nature, is to truly forgive ourselves. Before we ask the 'Big' questions about God, we should determine if we can forgive ourselves first.
If you are able to forgive yourself, the answer should be easy.

Yeah your going to hell!
Sex is a SIN! And one of the 7deadly sins is lust. When you give into it and your not married that's a mortal sin. But in society now a days sex isn't a taboo anymore. It makes you feel more liberated. But in reality your going to Hell!
But of course no one knows. And no one no matter how smart or famous will ever know.
