Can you live in sin and still be saved?

Can you live in sin and still be saved?

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord, (Romans 16:15-23 NIV). Jesus died so that our sins could be forgiven, but a life lived in intentional sin does not lead to salvation and nothing in the Bible suggests that it would.

Can you go to heaven without repenting?

Eternal life is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. Turning from sin is not required. If unbelievers do this, such repentance may help bring them to the place where they believe in Jesus for eternal life, but if this happens, such repentance does not in any way contribute to their eternal life.
