Even if your not religious explore the idea of religion or even spirituality,, any higher source for that matter and what it means to be a good person in this life. Im a strong beleiver in forgiveness just when you know youve done wrong, try your hardest to change it and that is the first step.
take care,

I think the name you're looking for is "religion." It's hardly an appropriate thing though to scare people into believing a set of beliefs, as most religions set out to do. Try getting some distance from it. You don't necessarily have to be an atheist, but it might be better believing that a real god would be loving of everyone and that the afterlife is peaceful and joyful. A trip to the new age section of your bookstore might be in order here. Try to see that there are different religions, philosophies, and perspectives on this. Not all religions believe people are sinners going to hell. I would question any religion that does say that. |

Honestly, go to church. or read the bible or even just pray to God. It seems like you want to become more pure, which is good. Just try to find why God is important to you, if you can accept God and Jesus into your life, and go about in the world with a good heart, then you shall be fine. |

Well, maybe it's God trying to tell you something or the Devil worring you. Maybe God wanted you to come on here and ask for help and maybe somebody will try to help you or show you something to do, like I am now.
If you say this prayer you won't have to worry about if you go to Heaven or not because you will automaticlly if you say this prayer, yes belive it or not it's just a simile prayer.
Dear Jesus,
You are my Lord,
I thank you for all that you given,
I do belive the God rose you from the dead,
I know I am a sinner and I want you to forgive my sins,
And be in my heart,
And save my forever,
Thank you Jesus,
Ahmen.
Just say that and you'll be fine. Even if you don't belive it just say it anyways better safe then sorry. You might go to Heaven just by beliving in him and being pretty good and loving him more then anything, but say that prayer anyways, I still need to look more into that just-beliving thing ok.
You do belive in God and Heaven right? I'll take it as you are,
Hope I helped some.
Bye bye!! =).
You may also send this pray to people if you wanna, but it's not a chain thing so don't worry about having to send it I'm just saying. |

You can ask the Lord to forgive you of all of your sins, to come into your life and into your heart and change you. Tell him how you feel, the bible says
"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." |

its just fear we all have it. knowing your bible will help ease these fears. we are all going to hell its just another name for the grave. god loves us and this life is temporary. what are true hell will be is when Jesus returns and every thing is perfect and the ones who don't have their act together will be cast in to the lake of fire a live to die a second death. after that they will simply stop existing. god loves us and when Christ returns we will have another chance to learn from him to prepare us for judgment day. if you love and respect the people around you and you keep the 10 commandments and ask for forgiveness on the ones you have broken and then sin no more you have nothing to worry about. i think living this life we live is torture enough. and hell will be seeing how perfect every thing is and knowing that we wont be a part of it. |

I don't have a name for it, but I have experienced it. Mine was so bad, I eventually put myself into a hospital to cope. Satan is working extra hard to make you feel as though you don't deserve salvation. The thing to keep in mind is that NO ONE deserves salvation. Jesus does love you.
Also, as for the concept of eternal torment that most people call hell, it is not a very biblically sound idea. The Bible talks of the wages of sin is Death. Also, Adam was told if he ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, he would die. Not suffer an eternity in a fiery torment. Revelations does talk of the lake of fire, which is the second death. Death, not eternal torment.
Jesus offered us all a gift. (Gift) We don't deserve it. Also, what sort of gift comes with a disclaimer that if you don't accept it.... you get tortured for eternity? Since the natural consequence for sin is death, that makes eternal life a real gift! Jesus wants you to take that gift. He loves you more than you can ever realize in this human life. Learning the truth about what the Bible says can set you free from your fear.
If you need support or want to really see for yourself what the Bible says, contact a Seventh Day Adventist Church in your area. They are typically more than willing to come to your house if you want for Bible studies. They will not ask you to believe anything you have not seen for yourself. Any Bible passages they show you, they can show you more than one to back up what they are talking about and IF you see something that does not seem to match with the other passages, they CAN explain to you why it fits in a way that makes sense.
I have been through so many religions. I started to think that I would never find one that was doing what God wanted. I had given up and a bible worker asked if I wanted to study with him. I figured sure, but I told him... If I find anything that does not go along with the Bible, I am done studying. LOL Well, I have been with the church for about 2 years now. I still haven't found anything that makes me want to leave.
I hope this has helped. |

Yes, I used to feel like this too. For absolutely no reason I felt like I was a horrible person that didn't deserve to go to Heaven and would end up burning eternally in hell.
It takes time and therapy to convince yourself that you aren't as bad as you think you are. If you're a Christian, accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior will save you (no matter how bad of a person you are) which is good, but if you're not you should talk to a religious head at your place of worship about this. |

Just convert to a religion that fits your sins or one that doesn't have a hell. Problem solved. Try Hinduism, maybe you'll have better luck as a cat. |

Your problem is one of depression and anxiety, rather than one of hell and damnation methinks. If things are spiralling out of control, I can't recommend strongly enough that you make an appointment with a psychiatric professional. Sometimes even a single session can put things into perspective and help you to move in a more positive direction.
No matter what you believe in, the only way to start moving in a positive direction sometimes is to take a step back, get some advice, and start pointing your life in the direction you want it to go. |

First off, based off the way you type, you seem young. If you are, then you have your whole life to make good. Just keep that in mind. |
