If we have ever sinned even one time we can't go to heaven? We have to be perfect? [Spirituality & Religion]

Yes. If we see a murderer we want him in jail right? Even a drivetexterer🙂! Well God will even the score, and give everyone exactly what they deserve! So what do we do then?

In Catholicism, it's held that as long as one is truly repentant and vows to commit the sin no more, they can be forgiven and gain entrance into Heaven. This is illustrated by the story of the two thieves on the cross with Jesus in John (I believe).

@Graylight yes if they have faith and follow jesus. But we don't go to heaven because we don't sin we go because Jesus forgives all our sins! One time he died and one time we are forgiven, even for your sins in the future. We are spotless!

@Carazaa That is not what the NT says. He removed the burden of Original Sin and opened the gates of Heaven (before him, all souls when to the waiting room of Sheol). He didn't offer a free pass or get out of jail free card for the future.

@Graylight Roman Catholics and many cults made up their own book, and changed the Bible, and is Satanic. Jesus died for ALL the worlds sins one time. [b]"He says you must be born again" [/b] Once that happens then your name is written in the book of life, and you go to heaven forever when you die. When Jesus comes back your body will be resurrected "[b]The dead in Christ will rise first"[/b] The ungodly will stand for judgment, Jesus will say I never knew you, and you will be found guilty, and sent to eternal torment.

@Carazaa Without opening a debate about this, because it's clear your belief of Catholicism is based on hearsay, the Bible was changed no more than any other Christian translation.

Be careful about finding scriptual back-up for your beliefs. Literally anything can be supplied by scripture.

@Graylight you can believe in the pope but I believe in the Bible, Gods word, and he says we don't pray to anyone but God! Not Mary because she wasn't but a sinful girl of 14 who was blessed to carry Gods son, and no pope can forgive your sins, and you can NOT work your way to heaven! Only Jesus, God Almighty becoming flesh John 1 can forgive your sins! Only He is going to come in the clouds like a loin and judge the living and the dead! You don't want him to say "I never knew you" I care about you so just read John 1 and revelation 22 🤗🌻
