You can believe in God and Jesus’ Sacrifice and read the Bible until hell won’t have it and claim born again and still end up in hell if you die with with your soul in a state of mortal sin. Hope this helps someone.

As a Catholic I am terrified of the prospect of winding up in Hell. Mortal sin is just what it means & can be committed by the merest thought, never mind the deed.

But no prayer that I have offered up to my Savior has gone unanswered. I know that my Redeemer liveth.

Can you square mortal sins away with Colossians 2:13-14 and/or Ephesians 1:13-14?

If you’re born again, there is no sin on your soul. You’ve been regenerated and have a new sinless nature within.

When the body of flesh dies, that old nature dies with it and all that’s left is the new, regenerate, sinless nature, which can be and will be in God’s presence.

The record of sin debt against the believer has been cancelled, so no sin remains to his account to condemn him.

The saved person is NOT going to hell otherwise they are not saved, because hell is what they are being saved from.

Does repentance cover that “mortal sin”?
