The Right to Enter Paradise
Death is inevitable. The thief on the cross knew when his would occur, but we can not predict our own. After his death, the crucified criminal went to live in paradise with Jesus. Some of us will also live eternally in God's presence. But others will experience everlasting torment, forever separated from Him.
If we receive Jesus as our Savior, our penalty for sin is paid. We are adopted into God's family, and Heaven is our eternal home. If we reject Jesus, we remain alienated from the Lord and under condemnation for our sin. We are destined to experience eternal judgment. God won't accept any of man's excuses because there is no acceptable defense for unbelief. (Acts 4:12)
Become part of God's family today. Acknowledge your sinfulness, and express your faith in these words:
"God, I have sinned against You. (Romans 3:23) I've followed my own way and refused to give You the right to rule in my life. (Romans 3:10-12) I recognize I am separated from You and cannot rescue myself. I do believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son. I accept the truth of the Scriptures? that His death on the cross paid my sin-debt in full. (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) And I ask You to forgive me of my sins. (1 John 1:9) By faith, I receive You, Lord Jesus, as my personal Savior from this moment on."
If you just spoke those words to God, then, like the thief on the cross, you have received salvation? a gift of God's grace. The heavenly Father welcomes every person who comes to Him through His Son, regardless of background, age, or current situation. Through Jesus, the right to enter paradise is yours!

God understands. He wants you to become a part of His Kingdom!! St. John 3:5. We are forgiven of our sins Acts 2:38 by baptism by immersion in His Name, that is the born again of the water. The born again of the Spirit is when we receive the Holy Ghost, just like they did on the Day of Pentecost! Acts 2:4. Then we are in a relationship with Him. Moses was a murderer, and read how God worked with him! God desires you to walk with Him as He walked with Adam,before the fall!! It is never to late! Don't delay, He's waiting on you!!

You are forgiven. When Jesus died on the cross, he forgave the world's sins from the present, past, and future. Unless you don't accept that, you are lost. Salvation is a bit more complex than that but it's not out of reach

I don't think you won't be forgiven by God.
In my honest judgment the only sin that cannot be forgiven is believing that Jesus was under the power of Satan. It's a very rare sin.

Go to sacramental confession. Jesus came to heal the sinners, not the self-righteous. In the Gospel of John we have the first sacramental confession and penance. Peter was asked 3 times by Jesus if he loved him as a confession for the 3 times that Peter earlier denied Him.

Satan's the Accuser. Jesus came to save us. If we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
"18Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.[g]" John 3:18.

No, dear. Just ask sincerely for forgiveness and do not repeat those sins. God is so forgiving. None of us, and I do mean none of us are worthy of God's love or forgiveness. It is only by the grace and mercy of Jesus that we can be saved from eternal pain.

God forgives all sin....based on what Christ did....it is not based on how good or bad you have been...
The only ones who cannot be foprgiven are those who have rejected Christ since he is the one who provided the atonement for our sins.
