What Is The Limit Of Forgiveness And Repentance? by theoriginalgood: 10:37am On Apr 13, 2020
As we all know, Christianity is one of the most popular and dependable religions (if not the most) known to mankind. In Christianity, one is exposed to several doctrines such as forgiveness of sin, repentance and even salvation. There is a popular saying that declares that every single human being is born into sin. Popular culture also proclaims that no one is perfect, NOT ONE.

Some actually doubt the existence of a Good God, but it’s easy to just observe that nature and everything around us in the universe has an immaculate design. There obviously has to be a supernaturally intelligent brain/mind behind all creation. This means we are assured that God is good and perfect, but what about humanity? What is the relationship between the supreme Good God and all mankind?

A Good God is pure and holy; He absolutely hates and doesn’t accept anything that is otherwise (bad, evil, wrong, ugly, immoral, wretched, incorrect, sinful, deficient, corrupt etc). He is perfect and incapable of making mistakes. Despite this, Christianity teaches that God can forgive sins and also that men can repent from their wrongdoing and be reconciled with Him. These ideas do not make sense and are thus obvious lies that have been propagated through history.

Another way to understand it is that God is a perfect being who exists in a flawless realm called Heaven. Humanity can never make it there because the requirement is to be ONLY GOOD and PERFECT. A good being can only do good and can never make any mistakes; humans clearly do not fit into this description. Saying that God forgives sins implies that God accepts sinful nature and this is obviously untrue. Likewise, claiming that a common man can repent from evil ways implies that something BAD can be converted to GOOD. This is clearly impossible because the two are opposite and vastly different.

Careful studying of the Christian Bible reveals this important secret. In Matthew 7: 16-20, it says: “16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17 Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them.”

Paying close attention to verse 19 and the previous paragraphs, it appears that the fate of mankind is to be “cast into the fire”. There is no forgiveness, no repentance and no salvation. Burning in hell fire forever is very scary and unpleasant, but it has to happen because of how men chose and choose to be. Today, people are still living on Earth; when will the eternal torment begin? The month APRIL could be: A Perfect Real Infinite Love. Seems like God’s celebration day.
