But no sins might make for a rather dull party, no? As for the "guest list", getting on it will depend on which brand of organized religion you prefer.
But be sure to dress casual and BYOB.

In John 14:6 Jesus says : I am the way, the truth, and the life, no man comes to the Father except thru me. You have to ask Jesus to forgive you of your sins and ask Him to come into your heart and be your Lord and Saviour.

I pasted this information from www.christiananswers.net, because they do a better job than I would! I hope that it helps you.
Jesus died for our sins, and was raised victorious over death.
1 Corinthians 15:22
For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.
1 Corinithians 15:54-57
Death has been swallowed up in victory. Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting? The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Jesus Christ is the only way to have our sins forgiven and to have a relationship with God which results in eternal life.
Romans 5:8
But God demonstrated His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
John 14:6
Jesus said "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me".
Believe in Him, receive the forgiveness that He offers.
John 1:12
To all who received Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God.
All sins are forgiven freely (Acts 5:31; 13:38; 1 John 1:6-9). The sinner is by this act of grace for ever freed from the guilt and penalty of his sins. This is the peculiar prerogative of God (Ps. 130:4; Mark 2:5). It is offered to all in the gospel.
The Bible teaches that we are justified by grace alone, through faith alone, because of Christ alone. Unfortunately, some people try to add human works to this.
Trust God for eternal life in heaven
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Trust God for fulfillment in your present life.
John 10:10
I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
Don't put it off for another time. Accept God's gift of life today! The Bible says: "It is appointed for men to die once, and after this comes judgment." (Hebrews 9:27) Someday, each of us must stand face to face with the God of creation. What happens at that judgment depends upon the decisions you are making right now.
Example of prayer for accepting Christ's gift of salvation:
"God, I know that you are good and loving. You Created this wonderful world in perfection. Because of sin, it has been corrupted and awaits your renewing. I know that I am a sinner. Thank you for dying in my place and forgiving my sins. Thank you for giving me new life, both on earth and in heaven. Please help me to be committed to you and live in a way that is pleasing to you. In Jesus name, Amen."
You are no longer viewed by God as a sinner. God sees Christ's righteousness in you.
2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things have passed away; behold, all things become new.
