I've said a lot of horrible things about God. Does God still love me? At what point is it too late for me to still have God's love (while I'm still alive)?

Originally posted by vivifyYes He loves you and if God is calling you to Himself it isn't to late, but at some point that

Originally posted by vivifyGod loves us because that's who He is in spite of our sin. There's that word!

God loves you, and no matter what you do He will be there to save you from your sins till the day you die. Only then will it be too late to repent and believe.
This lifetime is the proving ground. Don't waste another minute.
Act 2:21
And it shall come to pass, that whos ...[text shortened]... which is death, and have eternal life. You'll never regret it. And there'll be no turning back.

[b]- Profess with your mouth that Christ came and died for us
- Believing that to be the truth
- Trusting in God for eternal life
- Obedience to God/Christ.
Many falter at the obedience part. Paul said:
[i]For if we sin wil ...[text shortened]... e severe consequences for turning back.
God does not stop those who want to turn away from Him.

Why is it then that Paul gives instruction on how to deal with a believer that gets caught up in sin to restore him? If such a one has "trodden under foot the son of God" by sinning again, how can they be restored?
Don't you believe that Christ died for all our sins, past, present and future?
But of course you claim that one ...[text shortened]... passage you quoted.
But I have to be honest. I think this bears a closer look. Just sayin'.

Rajk... you forgot to post this verse too....
[b]For it is impossible, in the case of those who were once enlightened and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of holy spirit, and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, and then have fallen away, to renew them again to repentance, seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.[/b]
