Baptists/God's Forgiveness

Advertisement

Expert: - 3/1/2007


Question
Is there a limit to God's forgiveness of sin? If a person continues to sin, just asking for God's forgiveness, what will happen if the person never repents and confesses?

Answer
Hi Kay,

Thanks for this great question.  Here is what the Bible says:

Proverbs 29:1


He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.  

The King James Version, (Cambridge: Cambridge) 1769.

There comes a time when God will act aggressively and irreversibly because of lack of repentance.

I hope that I have helped you.

In Christ

Expertise

I believe that every word of the Bible is God-Breathed. This blessed book is the foundation of truth for faith and practice. If you ask this volunteer a question you will receive an answer from the Bible that is based upon a litteral, normal interpretation, taking into account the grammar and culture of the time.

Experience

I have been in the ministry almost 20 years. During this time, the Lord has used me as Senior Pastor, counsellor, youth pastor and generally in the equipping of the saints for the work of the ministry.
