Will God forgive someone who has killed?
If forgiving were simply a matter of God kindly forgetting a wrong someone has committed there would have been no reason for Jesus to have been tortured and then crucified on a cross.
God Cannot Simply Forgive! God's problem? Believe it or not, God has a problem. God does love us. God wants a relationship with us. But His justice demands that as sinners we must be judged. Unfortunately, according to scripture it is written "the wages of sin is death." So how can God pour out His love on us if we are dead? Something must be done about our sin.
Sin Must be Put Away. God's justice requires that sin be put away. This can be done one of two ways. Either the sinner can die, OR another die for the sinner. A sacrifice.
How Bad is Sin? From our perspective it is hard to grasp just how much of an offense sin is against God. But we can get a feeling for what God thinks about sin by the penalty He demands. In the OT, if the actual sinner was to be protected from the death penalty, God required the sacrifice a spotless lamb for sin. Why such a drastic penalty? It's hard to know why. But we have to trust that sin must be so offensive to God that He requires the death of the offender OR a spotless, innocent lamb - in order to set things right. What is it that gets "set right?" Our relationship with God. We do sin. God knows that. But He doesn't excuse it. He judges it. He judges us. But He allows that a sacrifice be performed to save us from death and renew our relationship with Himself.
Only a Temporary Sacrifice :-( Unfortunately, this sacrifice was temporary and only applied to a specific sin or for period of time when a person has committed sin. So what do we do? Sacrifice, sacrifice again, and again and again?
There must be a better way. Think about it. You want to be with God. But you sin. Then you perform a sacrifice. You sin again. Another sacrifice. What effect does this have on your relationship with God?
I don't know about you, but for me these repeated sacrifices would be a sad reminder, time after time, that I couldn't measure up to God's requirements. I would probably stop wanting to relate to God because even though the sacrifice made things OK, my conscience would constantly be reminded of the fact that I'm a sinner.
A Better Way This is where Jesus comes in. By Christ's sacrifice our sin is put away once and for all. Your sin, my sin, everyone's sin. Which sins? All of them. Those committed after believing in Him? Of course! When did Jesus die for you? Two thousand years ago. So, at that time, all your sins were in the future. God has no problem dealing with sins not yet committed. That's how powerful and permanent the blood of Jesus is in putting away sin.
Only the eternal Son of God could serve as an eternal sacrifice. Are we sure God has accepted Jesus' sacrifice? Yes! We know for sure because God raised Jesus from the dead and Christ now stands at the right hand of God. Once and for all Jesus took away the offense and now God is free to love us as He has always wanted to do so.
So, God will forgive sin, even murder, because of what Jesus did? Yes, and no. There is one requirement in order to enjoy a permanent relationship with God (even though we have sinned).
We Must Believe Keep in mind that the loving bond between the Father and the Son of God is stronger than anything you might imagine. The love and respect they have for one another is infinite. God did not take lightly the death of His Son. It was the most grave and significant even in time and eternity. If there had been any other way for God to remain just and still have a loving relationship with man He most certainly would have found it. But there was none. What God wants from a sinful man or woman is to show the utmost respect for His Son and what His Son did on that cross. How do we do that? God wants us to trust Him, that the death His Son suffered was good enough to save us. When we finally do trust God then God declares us saved, and free forever from the death we otherwise would have been required to endure. It's that simple.
So, will God forgive someone who has killed?
YES. The forgiveness comes through trusting what God's Son has done for him through sacrifice.
Is there anything else? Yes, one more thing. The killer, or any sinner, must also realize that this person who was sacrificed for this sin is alive and is waiting for the killer to come to Him as he trusts in that sacrifice.
Jesus is not a dead sacrifice. Jesus is alive, waiting for killers, or for anyone else who wants a relationship with Him to come and believe.
This is how God will forgive someone who has killed.

How can you ask god for forgiveness?
Sincere prayer and sometimes fasting or going without food and water for 24 hours if your health will allow. Go to Him in private. Speak with Him openly and pour out your …heart to Him along with your desires to change and do better. Ask Him for the strength and courage to make the changes you wish to make. He loves you and will help you. Matthew 6:5-18 and 24, Matthew 9:10-13, and Luke 15:7. Answer2: The Bible lets us know how God feels about us. 1 John 4:8 says "God is love." Psalms 65:2 says "O Hearer or prayer to you all sorts of people will come." Never be afraid to approach God in prayer. He is our Heavenly Father and wants us to open pour out our hearts to him. Be specific in your prayers to God and make them meaningful. We should never conclude we are beyond the reach of God's mercy. If we truly repent, take steps to right the wrong, and earnestly pray for forgiveness on the basis of Jesus' shed blood, we can have full confidence that Jehovah God will forgive us. ( 1 John 5:19) We should imitate this forgiveness in our dealings with one another.
Why didnt Judas ask God for forgiveness instead he chose to kill himself?
None of the disciples understood what was going on at the time. For three and a half years, they had all been expecting Jesus to establish the Kingdom of God on earth and ex…pel the Romans and their presence from their land. None of them knew to ask Jesus for forgiveness. He had told them that they would rule the Kingdom with Him on thrones of their own [Matt.19:28]. They thought they had it made. Why would they think they needed to be forgiven for anything? When Jesus was arrested... they all ran in terror! Their expectations of rulership, power and authority vanished in a heartbeat. Their King and Messiah allowed Himself to be taken from them without a protest. Their Kingdom, hopes and dreams were gone. Judas, on the other hand, was in it for the cash... and whatever material power he might acquire from the things Christ's was promising. He was merely hedging his bets. It's very likely, Judas was expecting the high priest and his gang to maybe give Jesus a beating and let Him go. No great harm would be done... and he would be a little richer. Maybe he could apologize to Him, later. Jesus knew he was greedy -- He'd understand. But when he saw what was really happening... he was crushed and terrified, too... even if his motives were different from the other disciples. His Master was in the midst of the ordeal of His life and out of Judas' reach. He would have no chance to ask His forgiveness, now [nor could he expect any]. He "repented" in his heart for what he had done [Matt.27:3]... but the damage was done, and he thought himself unworthy of forgiveness -- by God or anyone else. As greedy and materialistic as he was... Judas no murderer... and hated himself for being unintentionally complicit to the murder of his Friend. No one was thinking of asking anyone for forgiveness at that time -- especially Judas. Terror ruled in the hearts of all the disciples then. And satanic hatred burned in the hearts of strangers shouting, "Crucify Him, crucify Him!" None understood the plan of God at that time... and Judas' suicide prevented him from grasping it as the other disciples would, when Jesus would walk and talk with them after His resurrection, and opened their terrified and guilty hearts to the Truth. "Then opened He their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures." (Luke 24:45)
How do you get God to forgive you?
First you have to acknowledge the fact that you have sinned. Second you have to call upon the name of the Lord and ask for forgivness after having repented of your sin (Si…ns). You have to kneel in prayer having a broken heart and a contrite spirit having a deep sorrow for having sinned. If you have sinned against another person you also need to ask for their forgivness. Last but not least, you have to make a covenant with God not to sin again. No man is perfect and all have sinned. Even I who write to you might ask the same question you have asked. Answer2: Jehovah God is aware of our limitations. He does not foget that we are creatures of dust having frailties, or weakness, as a result of imperfection. Please go to God in prayer because he is our Heavenly Father ready to forgive us. Forgiveness is a facet of God's great love for us. Psalms 65:1 calls God the "Hearer of prayer." Psalms 86:5 says "For you O Jehovah are good and ready to forgive." Proverbs 28:13 says " The one covering over his transgression will not succeed, but whoever confessions and abandons them will be shown mercy."
Why does God forgive?
God forgives because we were made in his image, and he loves us. Why does a parent forgive a child who has done something them specifically not to do? An…swer2: Jehovah is aware of our limitations. "He himself well knows the formation of us, remembering that we are dust," says Psalm 103:14. He does not forget that we are creatures of dust, having frailties, or weaknesses, as a result of imperfection. The Great Potter tempers his dealings with us according to the frailty of our sinful nature and the way we respond or fail to respond to his guidance. 5 Jehovah understands how powerful sin is. His Word describes sin as a potent force that has man in its deadly grip. In the book of Romans, the apostle Paul explains: We are "under sin," as soldiers are under their commander (Romans 3:9); sin has "ruled" over mankind like a king (Romans 5:21); it "resides," or is "dwelling," within us (Romans 7:17, 20); its "law" is continually at work in us, in effect trying to control our course. (Romans 7:23, 25) What a powerful hold sin has on our fallen flesh!-Romans 7:21, 24.

Will god forgive you?
God already forgave us all with Christ some 2000 years ago. 1 John 2:1-2 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, …we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. See! Not just Christians, but everyone - was forgiven by Christ. You just gotta believe it! Or well you know...
Will God forgive you of masturbation?
The Bible is silent on this subject. God will forgive you of all your sins except blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, often referred to as the unpardonable sin (Matthew 12:32; …Mark 3:29; Luke 12:10). Additional Comments: All human beings are subject to the 'pulls of the flesh' as the Apostle Paul spoke about several times. We are too weak most times to overcome on our own that is why no one has fully obeyed God's Laws except Jesus - because He was full of God's Holy Spirit which guided Him and gave Him strength to prevail. First, we need to have a better understanding of masturbation if we truly wish to stop the act itself. Not everything is explicit in Scripture - some matters need to be considered to other Biblical Laws. As the Scripture does not speak directly about masturbation, we have to search for an understanding of how God views the matter. Obviously, God created sex to be very enjoyable. He designed and gave mankind marriage for this act to fully be enjoyed and help bring two people closer together. Being unmarried means one must abstain from all sexual activities - a most difficult task especially for those who are young. God's way is the way of 'give' while the god of this world has the way of 'get.' Masturbation is a pleasure one gives to oneself - in a sense selfish. It usually has thoughts of another person which the Scripture says is wrong - either fornication or adultery (see 1 Corinthians 6:18 and Galatians 5:19-21). Jesus specifically said to even think wrong sexual thoughts of another is sin (Matthew 5:27-28). So what is sin. According to Vine's Expository Dictionary, article 'Sin,' we read 'to miss the mark.' Surely a selfish act of getting self-generated pleasure misses the mark God desires us to experience. Therefore, if the intent of masturbation is for self only, it would be sin. However, perhaps in the heat of passion with one's spouse the individual self-stimulates in order to bring a greater pleasure to their spouse as well as themselves, then it would not be a selfish act.

Why didn't God forgive Satan?
Satan, the former friend of God, refused to change his evil ways. And so, God just... let him be, I suppose.
Can you forgive someone that you did not forgive in the past?
Ya, I can... and there are many cases for it. e.g. 1) In past, I might be wrong and didn't forgive someone; then I realized my fault. Now, I don't repeat my fault anymore…. 2) This 'forgiving' may vary from person to person. It can happen that I didn't forgive someone for his/her doing, but I may forgive someone near-and-dear one for doing the same. 3) It may occur that in the past, someone did something wrong intentionally and so I didn't forgive him/her; but now if I see someone doing the same wrong thing unconsciously and unintentionally, and after finding own fault he/she has intention to be changed, then I'll forgive him.

Why are there sins Is God not forgiving?
Sins are nothing more than going against God's commands. All have sinned. Since God is holy he can't abide the presence of sins even if he wanted to. He provided Christ, who d…ied on the Cross for man's sins, upon whom, if you trust as Savior from sin, allows the person back into His presence. Acceptance of Christ is like accepting a pardon; it's the method of obtaining that forgiveness. The only sin not forgiven is rejection of the Holy Spirit. Since God, Christ and the Holy Spirit are of the same mind - to reject one is to reject them all. Just like a governor or president can pardon anyone of any crime that falls under their jurisdiction, you can choose to reject that pardon in which case the original sentence is still imposed. According to Biblical account God is forgiving. In fact without sin there is no forgiveness. For people to choose either for or against God's will is a freedom He gave to us for a reason. If I chose to steal something which does not belong to me, I make a decision to "sin." It is not the availability of the options to sin which needs to be absent but rather my allowing myself to take that action which is unjust. God added forgiveness because His love for us supercedes our own impurity. So it cannot be the presence of sin which can call to question God's forgiving nature.
