Here's just a bit more of the Word to go along with this Jeremy:

1Corinthians 6:9-11 9Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

Verse 11 is key here. Verses 9 and 10 tell us the type of people that will not make it into Heaven if they continue those lifestyles. But in verse 11, it tells us that people who had once lived those lifestyles have been washed and sanctified by Jesus. And such were some of you. They no longer need to let their past trouble them, because Jesus has paid the price.

Just like you don't need to let your past trouble you. Now go to God in prayer and let him love you my friend.
