    No. You're not forgiven. That's like the Catlicks who go to confession and tell the priest all the sordid details of what they did, and think that means they're forgiven. You and I know they're not forgiven. The same way that you saying "Jesus please forgive me" in such a flippant manner does not mean you're forgiven. When you repent, it must be sincere - your whole body must feel the apology, your heart must ache with the guilt of knowing what you did was against God's laws. Anyone can say "I'm sorry" and not mean it. Criminals do it all the time to get lighter sentences.
    I'm sorry dear, but it seems to me that God sees through you. He knows your faith is a shallow one. He knows you're only pretending to love Him in order to get to Heaven, and that if there weren't that reward, that you would be an atheist. God needs you to love Him and suffer His wrath, merely because He is God and not because there's a honeypot (ie: Eternal Life) at the end.

    That's what I mean - sometimes it's just too hard to be perfect.

    That's why it's so hard. We can't all be perfect, so most of us are doomed. We spend our lives being unhappy, and we still die and go to Hell. Why? Why? Why? Atheists at least spend their lives being happy.
    no one is perfect. everyone fails at sometimes but that's why god says i can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. you have to pick yourself back up and stay in the game.

    if god didn't care then why did he die for our sins. why did he go through all of that pain and suffering if he didn't care if i'm miserable? and at the time i put god to the side and didn't care and now this is happening and i need to get back straight with god so i don't feel this way anymore. oh and i gotta put one more thing =P there you go

    Please, do tell us in what Chapter and Verse you read the Holy Bible tells us to ignore certain passages.

    I neither blessed nor cursed you.



    I did not swear any oath to you.

    So now you'll do as the good pastor said, and get lost?

    =P

The Bible tells us so.
