Would it be a sin to use something u stole

May God’s peace, love and mercy be with you!

Just go to confession and tell the priest what you have done and he will tell you what you need to do in order to make restitution for the offense that you have done.

It is very important to be truly sorry for having offended God Who is all Good and deserving of all our love. It is also very important to make a firm resolution with the help of God’s grace to sin no more.

Take care and God bless!

Blessed be Jesus and Mary!

let’s say that i stole a hammer
and used that hammer to make a table.
after gone to confession, i will have to give that hammer back

but for the table, i think i don’t have to give it away or throw it away. i can keep the table.

hope it help

Thanks also if i stole somethign and it was to late to give it back could u still use the product

Too late like you’d already used some of it (shampoo for example?)

After you have gone to confession about stealing, and done your penance, send (anonymously) the money that the product would have cost to the store, print a note that you took a bottle of shampoo (or whatever) without paying and here is the money you should have spent. No need to sign your name. And then do as Jesus said, “Go, and sin no more”. God’s love and peace be with you. We all make mistakes. . .but by the grace of God we don’t have to always keep making the same ones.

i would suggest asking the priest in confession. That way u can be more specific and the confessor b able 2 give u guidence that will help u avoid sin and practice virtue where u r in yr spiritual journey.

Have mercy, I’m old.

THe important thing is to make restitution. Tell your priest confessor and obey what he says.

And for the sake of some of us, please spell properly. It’s kinda hard to follow.
