  1. NO.  I think you knew that already though.


  2. No, you shouldn't be forgiven if you continue to lie and don't ask for forgiveness for the lie. You have to try to stop doing those things you do that are wrong. You know lying is wrong.. And if you continue without feeling bad about it and wanting to be forgiven for lying, why should you be forgiven for something you refuse to stop doing ?  

  3. no repentance, no forgiveness.

  4. No.  If you continue in a sin, you are not repenting.  And while I believe we are saved by grace alone, there must be some evidence, and that is repentance.  John the baptizer said "Bring forth fruit meet for repentance (show some evidence you have repented.)"  Jesus said, "Go and sin no more."  It's through out the Scriptures.  Even in the book of Acts, Peter said it is time to repent.

  5. Acknowledging the sin is the first step, repenting is the next.  You seem to be having difficulty with step 2.  In order to be forgiven, you must repent.  Pray for His strength in the midst of your weaknesses.  God bless

  6. Forgiven?  Yes.  Repentant?  No

    To repent (the other part of the whole forgiveness thing) means to stop doing it.  

  7. No. You should repent then walk in the truth.

  8. We are still forgiven even of perpetual sins, although we are told to be dead to sin. Romans 6:1; Romans 6: 15-16.
