I believe there is a God, but who is to say which is the most powerful - or real. Remember the Native Americans? They were pure, and had their Gods. Romans, Asians, and others. Your question is a bit selfish, as there are many religions, with just as much testimony, documentation, and people who are trying their best to follow the beliefs known to them. How dare anyone of us judge and or dismiss the other Gods, some before ours of choice. Please live your life as your beliefs, and do the best you can. We are human, and as such, make mistakes. Ask your God of choice for forgiveness. And...stay away from the people that I suspect you were involved with, that participated with you and gave you such guilt. If you weren't a good person, you wouldn't have bothered with this.

Hey! Luigi,
The bottom line is, Christ died for ALL sins, past, present & future, for His chosen people...His blood sacrifice IS sufficient! We must understand, we are fallen humans, our hearts & fleshly bodies are still in a state of unrighteousness as long as we are living on this earth, even after becoming born again...What's changed is our status, we are now in a position of "forgived"
& made holy in the sight of the Lord...When the Father sees us, He sees us covered by the blood, sinless, made righteous! Praise the LORD!!!
We can do nothing to assist in our being accepted by God, it is a free gift...This is why it's so very important to learn the Word of God, it IS God, that's why it's called the "living word" He reveals Himself very clearly...The more we know God, His living word, the more we desire to know Him & be obedient, knowing & trusting, He knows best!
We will sin until the day we die, it's a given, as we grow in our faith we learn just how wicked our own hearts really are & we desire to be freed from this body of bondage...We slowly desire more & more of the truth which set's us free. It works miracles by renewing our minds, strengthening our inner man, our spirit, which will be in the presence of the Lord one day...
It is a reality that those who deny the truth & live a self-serving life will end out in eternal damnation, it is a reality no doubt! But let's remember the difference between willful sin & plain sin...we sin everyday, all day long in our hearts & minds, there is no such human that doesn't. I mean seriously, think about it, every impure thought is a sin, every impure motive is a sin, every impure act or word is a sin in the sight of the LORD! It only takes 1 sin to be called a sinner, so if we are literally sinning everyday, what does that mean? That's how great & awesome our God is! Look at what He's done for us?
There is great forgiveness, the more we grow in our love & trust in Him, the more we want to please Him & avoid willful sins...The enemy is walking about the earth seeking whom he may devour...The children of God are his main target, he studies us to learn our weaknesses, but God knows that. I think it's like a battle, who do we want to get the victories & points, God or Satan? I mean, It's never in our best interest to willfully sin, there are always consequences for our actions, good & bad...
Life is made up of choices, moment by moment...we will never make the right choice 100% of the time, it's just not in our fallen nature to do so, but the more we stay close to the Lord, getting to know Him, the better off we are!
God Bless You!

You have got some confusion going on here, you must read a little deeper.If you fall You can get back up again. By repenting . Even though you can repent it does not give you a free ticket to go sin on purpose we all have sinned according to the bible.We will all be judged one day.Jesus said "if your heart condemns you God is greater than your heart.

Amazing !! Someone who actually understands. We MUST repent, and live a holy life, AS JESUS DIRECTS US TO DO ! Will we slip? Yes! Will we fall occasionally? Yes! But the Word says that a righteous man falleth seven times. So long as we allow Christ to work in our hearts, and change the desires of our heart, and keep repenting, change WILL take place. When God starts a wondrous work in a person, He will finish it. Abide in Him, and you shall spend eternity with Him, as it is written.

Who has believed our report?
And to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed?
2 For He shall grow up before Him as a tender plant,
And as a root out of dry ground.
He has no form or comeliness;
And when we see Him,
There is no beauty that we should desire Him.
3 He is despised and rejected by men,
A Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief.
And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him;
He was despised, and we did not esteem Him.
4 Surely He has borne our griefs
And carried our sorrows;
Yet we esteemed Him stricken,
Smitten by God, and afflicted.
5 But He was wounded for our transgressions,
He was bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes we are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray;
We have turned, every one, to his own way;
And the LORD has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed and He was afflicted,
Yet He opened not His mouth;
He was led as a lamb to the slaughter,
And as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
So He opened not His mouth.
8 He was taken from prison and from judgment,
And who will declare His generation?
For He was cut off from the land of the living;
For the transgressions of My people He was stricken.
9 And they[a] made His grave with the wicked—
But with the rich at His death,
Because He had done no violence,
Nor was any deceit in His mouth.
10 Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise Him;
He has put Him to grief.
When You make His soul an offering for sin,
He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days,
And the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in His hand.
11 He shall see the labor of His soul,[b]and be satisfied.
By His knowledge My righteous Servant shall justify many,
For He shall bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore I will divide Him a portion with the great,
And He shall divide the spoil with the strong,
Because He poured out His soul unto death,
And He was numbered with the transgressors,
And He bore the sin of many,
And made intercession for the transgressors.

In the past, Jesus came to earth, was born, lived, died, and rose again to save the world. In the future, Jesus will come again to earth to judge the living and the dead on the Last Day.

God is offering us a pardon based on the death of Jesus Christ in payment for OUR sins.
The pardon is real, and the offer is real, but it expires when we do.
Right now, He will be our Savior, but if we wait till after we die to meet Him, He will be our judge.

He came to save the world, He is returning to judge it. And He's no lily white skinned, scrawny, morose and sniveling milktoast...this is one Man you don't want to be on the wrong side of on that sobering day.

I am a sinner.
Sin is anything contrary to the nature of God. Every person is born a sinner, and every person commits sin. God is holy and hates sin. Because He is just, He must punish sin. The punishment for sin is eternal separation from God.
God's Word says: ... all have sinned ... (Romans 3:23); For the wages of sin is death … (Romans 6:23a).
I am incapable of saving myself.
Because I am born in sin, no action of mine can accomplish anything toward my salvation. I cannot get to heaven by being good, attending church, praying or anything else. I am helpless and unable to make myself worthy of heaven.
God says: Not by [good works] which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us … (Titus 3:5a).
Only God can save me because only God is sinless.
God gave His Son, Jesus Christ, to be my Savior by paying the penalty of death for my sin in my place.
But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:8)
My salvation was accomplished on the cross.
Jesus paid for all my sin by dying, shedding His blood and rising from the grave. His blood paid my penalty. His resurrection defeated death. He is now in heaven, interceding for me before God.
For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God … (1 Peter 3:18a).
I can only be saved by trusting that what Jesus Christ did on the cross is sufficient to save me.
Believing is trusting what God did for me. I can add nothing to my salvation. When I believe that His death was a complete payment for me, He gives me eternal life.
… Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved … (Acts 16:31)
He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. (John 3:36)
Once I am saved, I am saved for eternity.
Once saved, I cannot lose my salvation. No creature or thing can take it away from me. I cannot lose it by any action of my own.
God says: … I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish. (John 10:28)
For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16)
Love and believe in our lord, Jesus Christ. His love for those who do not deny him shall be saved by his divine grace.
