Yes, that is true! We can be forgiven, if we seek forgiveness,
(See Matthew 7:7 and John 14:14)

But as read in Galatians 6:7: “Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.”

We also read: “Know ye not that the unrighteousness shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolators, nor adulterers, nor effinate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,.......shall inherit the kingdom of God.” (1 Corinthians 6:9-10)

We are warned, and we must take heed: “The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” (Psalm 9:17)

One more for now: “By mercy and truth iniquity is purged, and by the fear of the LORD men depart from evil.” (Proverbs 16:6)

I do not disagree. I would note that in just the few Scriptures you quoted they indicate individual sin and a nation's sin. When a nation makes it their standard to forget or rebel against the Creator that blessed and protected their nation, the whole nation suffers a heap of hurt. We are hurting and too few are able to figure out the cause of their hurt.

Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

Don't you find it interesting that the Bible provides no justification in this verse for claims that homosexual behavior is uniquely sinful?

It is listed as one of several sins, given no particular prominence in the list.
