A lot of passages in the Bible talk about how you will go to hell if you sin. I wanted to know if that is true...It is impossible not to sin.

That's why Jesus came to earth, as a man and gave His life for our sins. He knew we couldn't live the perfect life so He made it so we could live and go to Heaven. But, there is a catch. You must ask Jesus to forgive you the sin and He will. Any sin that you haven't asked forgiveness for, will be remembered on judgement day. Just ask and you will be o.k. Now this doesn't mean that each and every day you do the same thing ( like sleeping around ) and expect forgiveness. Yoiu have to use common sense. Good Luck

The consequences of sin is death, not torture. (Romans 5:12; 6:23)

The God of the Bible never thought of such a thing as burning torture. (Jeremiah 7:31) The scripture shows that was a human concept. In fact, it is an impossibility for the Bible shows the condition of the dead makes feeling torture impossible. In death, we have no feelings at all. (Eccles. 9:5,10)

So since Adam, we have all fallen short of perfection, which is what sin means. Falling short of perfection. We demonstrate this lack of perfection everyday in our lives.

Hell, Sheol, Hades are all names in different languages for the same thing--the grave. This idea of Hell being fire and brimstone is not from the Bible at all.

No. It is not impossible. You can come to point in your life where you can omit sin. However, the path to get there is riddles with sin. We all commit sin at one point in our lives or another. But this is not to say that we cannot stop. We of course can. Are we still imperfect? Yes, because of all the past sin we have created. Perfection is a journey AND a destination. We will all become sinless at one point or we could not enter the kingdom of God. "For no unclean thing can enter the kingdom of God."

If you sin? We have done nothing but sin from the moment we were born.

You are right "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" - Romans 3:23.

But the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord.

Please repent of your sins and trust Jesus to save you today.

That is why Jesus came and died for our sins, so we could be forgiven if we accept the death of Christ as the payment for our sins.

He didn't do that so we could just sin and not worry about it, but so that where we fall short despite our best efforts, we have a way of forgiveness.

We are born with original sin, so even if you could go all your life without sinning, you still have the stain of original sin.

But sinners also go to Heaven, not just hell. That's why Jesus died on the cross. After you repent, Jesus will not remember your sins.

Hebrews 8:12
"For I will be merciful to their iniquities, And I will remember their sins no more."

Isaiah 43:25
It is I who wipe out, for my own sake, your offenses; your sins I remember no more.

All humans were born with a sin nature. That is the reason to confess your sins and ask forgiveness once and for all.

Lets let the Hero of the Protestants answer this one Quote from Martin Luther's Table Talk

God does not need our actions. All He wants is that we pray to Him and thank Him. It does not matter how Christ behaved what He taught is all that matters. What does it matter whether we commit a new sin? Faith cancels all sin. No other sin exists in the world except unbelief, Sometimes it is necessary to commit some sin out of hatred and contempt for the Devil. What does it matter if we commit a sin. You must say my sins are not mine; they are not in me at all; they are the sins of another they are Christ's and are none of my business. Christianity is nothing but a continual exercise in feeling that you have no sin although you sin, but that your sins are thrown on Christ. From the moment you acknowledge that Christ bears your sins, He becomes the sinner in your place. Be a sinner, and sin boldly, but believe more boldly still. Not only men, but the Saints and Apostles must be sinners. The Saints must be good, downright sinners. The Apostles themselves were sinners, regular scoundrels…I believe that the prophets also frequently sinned grievously. You owe nothing to God except faith and confession. In everything else He lets you do whatever you like. You may do as you please, without any danger of conscience whatsoever.

well we have to ask forgiveness of our sins, and since Christ died on the cross for us God forgives us and the sin is as far off as the east is from the west. The only way you're gonna go to Hell is if you don't except Christ as your Lord and saviour.

once there where people who said its impossible to get to the moon. There is nothing impossible in this world. If you have the purpose, the means will follow.
