God's forgiveness and my forgiveness?
My parents are really loving and caring. But sometimes they don’t give me enough freedom and as a result, I feel a lot of anger towards them. Even though they care for me a lot, I still feel angry with them and as a result, I feel guilty. I always bad mouth them to my friends(behind my parents’ back ofcourse). I am NOT proud of this. I feel really guilty. Yesterday, I took a decision not to bad-mouth them anymore, but today I did. Only after I did that, did I start feeling guilty. How can I stop this and be thankful for my parents? Please Please don’t suggest talking to my parents as that is not going to happen.
And I have committed some sins and I feel guilty about it always. I have asked for god’s forgiveness so many times over the years, but still I can’t forgive myself? How do you think I can forgive and accept myself? Moreover, how do you think I can love myself? I have asked god to remove my guilty feelings,then y isn’t he answering my prayers?
Will god forgive me for the sins I have committed knowingly?
There is no god. You are clearly capable of defining your own morals and setting your own standards. Build on that! You don’t need the approval or disapproval of a fictitious bully in the sky!

Next time you pray, start by praising God and thanking Him for everything you have, you’ve had, and that you will have in the future.

don’t waste your life worrying about the forgiveness of a god that you have no idea whether actually exists. Just treat people nicely because it’s the right thing to do! Don’t feel bad about badmouthing your parents, we all did that when we were young!

surely He will and you only have to repent. Now that you have as you stated, you must try hard to overcome the habit of speaking this way about your parents. It has become a habit with you and habits are generally kind of hard to break.
when you feel the urge to speak that way about them, think of how sad you would be if they were in failing health and could not help you or themselves. that would change your life and theirs. I know it is severe, but it may help to discipline your tongue and thoughts. You are doing the right thing and it may not come over night. Keep praying and trying. you can also try to replace a bad thing you were going to say with a sweet or loving thing about them, try it as an exercise in your mind, couldnt hurt to try. You are doing good, don’t kick yourself so much. You can overcome it, I felt that way about my parents as a youth at times, it is not probably uncommon. It was just that back then, I knew not to say what the heck I was thinking. (LOL). Good luck to ya. God Hears your prayers.

You’re asking about repentance. You can’t repent unless you feel sorry about what you did and commit yourself to never doing it again, and then actually not doing it. Then you can forgive yourself. Just think about all the good things they’ve done for you, and start to pay them back by being nice and doing nice stuff with them. Make them happy with you and then you might be happy with yourself.

hi there, i know im going to get alot of thumbs down for my answer but i dont care cause the truth is i feel the answer i am going to give you is honest and it’s how i really feel……..it’s the devil doing this to you….you have loving and caring parents and it pisses the devil off so he :jumps on your shoulder and whispers in your ear that you should be angry at that for whatever reason, so then your mind starts thinging…hey, yea i am angry at that and then you feel a compulsion to talk bad about them……..
the reason you feel guilty is because God/your conscious is telling what you are doing is wrong, you know in your mind and in your heart your parets are loving and caring….
.
talk to God and ask Him to help you realize why you are doing this, ask Him to help you stop feeling the need to be angry at your parents and talk about them….
it’s like breaking a bad habit, soon as you start to feel angry say NO STOP IT….
i suggest you rebuke satan in the name of Jesus Christ each time you feel you are getting angry or want to talk about your parents
say this
In the name of JESUS CHRIST my LORD AND SAVIOR i rebuke you satan…….i cover myself in the blood of JESUS CHRIST…..
The white light of God surrounds me
God’s love envelops me
God’s power protects me
Only good can come to me
And so it is
Amen
Say this as many times of day that you want
God has already forgiven you, again it is the devil tellin you God didnt and telling you that you should feel guilty and ashamed……
Think if you had a child and that child did something wrong and then apologized to you and cried to you and begged you not to be mad…….you forgive the child, hold them…..but the child continues to look sad and depressed feeling you are still mad at them……….this is how God feels He doesn’t want us to hurt!!! He just wants us to know right from wrong…….you are forgiven the second you ask if you truly mean it……
Talk to God like He is your best friend, because HE IS!!…

I’m assuming you are Christian, so you are under God’s grace. That doesn’t mean you can do what you want, but that you need to seek God’s will for your life. Pray and ask God’s forgiveness for your life and do this with a repentant heart — seeking seriously not to do the wrong things again. God is love, and so you need to focus on that. Christianity is about faith for sure, a trust, but with love too. This takes a maturity. This isn’t just a head thing, a knowing, but also a heart thing — a willingness to love and commit to God eternally. The most important factors I’m learning are faith, love, peace, hope, friendliness, caring, giving. and meekness, plus obedience. God is our Creator, all-knowing, all-powerful, eternal, holy, love. Mostly, God is love and He wants us to be love too and become like Jesus Christ, which takes obedience and faith that He can help us succeed to do His will. Our will needs to be yielded to His will. We need to accept Jesus into our life as our Lord and Savior forever to receive God’s blessing and forgiveness plus go to heaven. Having Jesus in your life means changing your life to accept His leadership — thus He is your Lord, and not just your Savior. He wants to change us to be more like Him. The more we love God, the more we can commit and be obedient. Spiritual maturity comes as we realize that life isn’t all about us. Most important is loving and helping God and others. I’m Lutheran and I like the Baptist churches too. Ways to stay on the project are going to church, reading the Bible daily, and daily prayer as needed. Some churches do a weekly Bible study group and these can be a good way to get committed to read the Bible often and keep going. Make friends with your parents. Let God guide you. God bless.

When you believe in Jesus for free salvation, then you are forgiven ALL SINS past, present, and future! That simple!
Not forgiving yourself is silly, if the Lord has forgiven you.
Jesus is God, and Jesus loves you so very much! 
The truth about Jesus is that the only way to be saved and to get into heaven and avoid being sent to hell, is by believing in Jesus for salvation, believing in faith alone that Jesus, who is God, died on the cross for all our sins as FULL PAYMENT for all our sins, and then Jesus rose from the dead (1 Corinthians 15:1-4). Believe in Jesus alone for salvation, and you will be in heaven, no matter what!
Salvation is a FREE GIFT that happens in a split second when you believe in Jesus alone to save you! It is impossible to lose or "leave" salvation (John 6:39-40, John 10:28, 1 John 5:13).
Please pray now: "Jesus, I believe that You died on the cross to pay for my sins and that You rose from the dead, and I thank You for eternal life!" You will be in heaven with Him forever when you die! David | Feb 01, 2010
Perhaps most of us go through a stage of bad-mouthing our parents when they are strict, little realising how much easier it would be for them to be lax and let us go our own way. You will have no idea how very much your parents love you until you are a parent yourself. You will then begin to understand what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height of love and to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge. (Ephesians 3:18).
As far as God’s forgiveness is concerned, you must remember that the Devil is described in Scripture as "the accuser of the brethren". He is also the Father of Lies. He will go on trying to persuade you that you are beyond God’s forgiveness. If so, then do as Jesus did — combat him with the Sword of the Spirit — one of the many verses in Scripture which speak of God’s forgiveness of those who repent.

I was really amazed by your question.
It set my mind racing,
I will share a little secret with you.
I am atheist, and have been long before you were born.
So I know there is no God.
But I do feel guilt now , later in life, not about any sins against religion, but certainly about things I have done in the past, nothing to do with any God!
The thing that amazed me by your question was the obvious fact that you think a God would cure your behaviour and forgive your ’sins’.
Now just think about this a bit:-
If you are truly on a religion ‘fix’ and you go to your religion leader, then depending upon the religion you have been taught to follow you will be forgiven.
Can you really believe this?
Or if you are not a member of that particular faith then you will burn in hell. Complicated isn’t it?
In fact it is all rubbish.
Try to work it out on your own, you do not need religion to get in the way, good luck with that.

When God says that He will forgive us from our sins , we must believe God at His Word. His Word is true and God cannot lie.
When we don’t forgive ourselves, this is being self righteous and God is convicting us of our self righteous thoughts and actions.
If a person is truly Born Again by the Spirit of God and God is their Lord and Saviour, then when God says He will forgive those who beg forgiveness, we must believe Him. In faith and in obedience to His Word.
You make yourself out to be more righteous than God and this can never be.
We are so full of sin and that which we want to do which is right and good, we find ourselves not doing, because of our sinful natures.
God looks upon the heart of mankind and He knows who is sincere with their words from their hearts.
He knows who has true saving faith and who has not, because it is God Himself who gives this as a gift to those who will turn to Him in fear and trembling.
