Even if I can't remember all of the sins I've committed and if I keep asking the Lord if he could forgive me for all of the sins I've committed and have him help me live the Christian life that he wants me to live would I be able to enter the Gates of Heaven and get rewarded for all of the good things I've done.
I do know that the Lord loves me very much and I want to do my best to live my life for him, I do pray for my family and friends as well as acquaintences.

Dear Friend,
There is a wonderful verse in Psalms that I present to the Lord every morning...just for that reason of wanting to know if there is some sin I have not yet confessed to my heavenly Father ...before I offer a prayer of thanksgiving and petition.
Psalm 139:23, 24 says, "Search me, O God, and know (examine) my heart: try (test) me, and know my thoughts: And see if there be any wicked way in me (anything that is displeasing to you), and lead me in the way everlasting."
Sincerely in Christ Jesus,
lostnsavd...

Yes!
1 John 1:9 -- If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
In John 19:30 -- When Jesus ... said, It is finished:
The work He did on the Cross COMPLETED the work of redemption. ALL of our good works are filthy rags and won't get us into heaven.
Isaiah 64:6 -- But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
It's great to want to do good deeds! But, realize that no matter how many good deeds we do:
Luke 17:10 -- So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that which was our duty to do.

You dont go to heaven for your good works or all the good things you have done. It is through faith in Jesus that you have received Christ and have eternal life. If you know that you have eternal life, you have personal relationship with him. If you know that it is sin, and you keep on sinning, you may not be Christian at all. God want us to be pure. if you ask God for forgiveness, he forgave you. if you keep on doing the sins over and over, you need to check your heart and attitude. In order to be victorious, keep on praying, meditating on the word of God, and spend a quality time with him. If you want to realize Jesus's heart for the lost soul, go to Mission Trip from your church. Then you will realize what it means to really live for God. May God bless you~

If you honestly repent your sins and ask honestly for the Lord's forgiveness, than He will always forgive you, whether or not you could name every sin you've ever committed. The love of the Lord is endless, ever for the lowliest and most sinful of His children. Have faith in His forgiveness and you will find your reward.

isn't gay intercourse the final. Anti-gay attitudes is what's going to make Christianity out of date interior the destiny. You human beings get all annoyed over stupid issues. despite somebody does it their mattress room is there very own business enterprise. To think of there is a few greater ability obtainable that could tell somebody what they could and can't do to their very own physique isn't something wanting madness. i don't deny the existence of a deity or deities although I doubt they could preoccupy themselves with what somebody does with their penis or vagina.
