Quote: god forgives everyone for their sins up until their very last air breathing moment if they find him in their hearts according to the bible right???????
The simple answer is a resounding "NO!" Read the Whole Book to get the facts. Jesus says,
"He who has believed and been baptized will be saved."
Look up the word, "repent" to see there is more than belief.
honestly I don't put a lot of belief into the bible as being the complete true word of god
it has been so to speak ,cut copied pasted and edited way too many times since the formation of christainity and its adoption as the official roman state religion. by way too many people in power(popes,kings rich people with influence)to suit their needs and purposes when convienant for them.
do a little research into the council of rome and biblical canon councils for various branches of christainity formed thruout the ages and what branches of christainity have what books in their version of "their bible" for what reasons that would be a good start for you I think

You dodged out on your own post. Whether you put a lot or zero stock in the Bible, I responded to your false argument about forgiveness from God. I showed your error from Jesus and suggested you check for future reference so you don't make the same mistake again.
The idea the Bible has been cut and pasted shows willful ignorance on your part. The Old Testament was translated from Hebrew into Latin 285 years before Jesus was born. Learn about the Dead Sea scrolls.
This from the person who doesn't believe in carbon-14 dating, and does believe that humans strolled around with dinosaurs on a planet that is only 4,000 years old. Oh, and believes in not getting paid for the work he's done but continues to show up for work every day, because ... well, who the hell knows why on that one.
Priceless.
