Why is it said that we send ourselves to hell, and others say that god sends us to hell. What is the truth?
* both, if we sin willfully then God (including your own self) will send you to hell… Hebrews 10:26-27…

We go to hell if we sin a mortal sin and we go to heaven if we are holy and don't sin.
* all people commits sin even righteous ones (Ecclesiastes 7:20)… we go to heaven if we have faith in God (and Christ and gospel), do good works to all (Romans 2:7), and continue this until the end (Matthew 24:13)…

Going to heaven would be tough so going to the middle then heaven is the best chance we got.

* two kinds of sin: I John 5:16… "unto death" - not forgiveable… "not unto death" - can be forgiven… example of sin that cannot be forgiven: Mark 3:29…

Wow: "But anyone who says, 'You fool!' will be in danger of the fire of hell."
* not like that, friend... read the context: "whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause"...

No one can ever live up the teaching of that book because it is taught that even your thoughts condemn you and no one can control their thoughts. You would be in a constant state of repentance which is unhealthy.
we are all humans, in the Bible, all humans commit sin (Romans 5:12, I Kings 8:46, II Chronicles 6:36)… even righteous persons in the Bible commit sin (Ecclesiastes 7:20)… but that does not mean that you are not holy in the eyes of God… take for example Zechariah and Elizabeth, they commit sin but they are still righteous and blameless in the eyes of God (Luke 1:5-6)… so is Job (Job 1:1), Noah (Genesis 6:9) and the 1st century Christians (Philippians 3:15)…
there are two kinds of sin, (1) mortal or unto death, and (2) not mortal or not unto death (I John 5:16)… if you commit sin which is not mortal or not unto death, then you can be forgiven if you repent… if you are forgiven, then your sins will be forgotten and not counted nor imputed (Psalms 32:1-2, Romans 4:7-8)… a mortal sin is when you commit sin deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth (Hebrews 10:26)…
we are not asked or told to restrain from something beyond our control (I Corinthians 10:13)… and we are not asked to be in a constant state of repentance… enduring/restraining from sin/temptations is not unhealthy, based on my experience, if I succeeded overcoming sin (like, me preventing myself to commit sin), I fell wonderful and I feel like I've accomplished a very good thing for myself… for me, it shows how responsible we are as a person, responsible for yourself and others… 🙂

what is this doctrine? I'm fairly certain all sins are forgivable in most christian sects
