Well;
I've got some really bad news for you.
If you truly want to be a Christian, the first thing you have to do is to stop sinning.
Christians are all perfect and none of us sin once we find Jesus. If you do continue to sin after you find Jesus, then you really didn't find Jesus. None of us in here, (the ones who are truly saved that is) continue to sin.
Now....... I don't know who told you that you would have to be able to completely resist sin in order to follow Christ, or that you couldn't party like a responsible teenager, or who led you to believe that you may as well give up and go to hell,.... but that is as rediculous as the statements I just made to you in jest.
The fact is, that you sound very much like a man I greatly respect. His name was Martin Luther. Luther was raised in the Roman Catholic belief that some people (Especially Popes) were perfect, unable to sin, and infallable because they had faith in God.
Luther wanted to be a fine Christian and a solid representative of Jesus, but he soon found that his sin nature continued to haunt him. He even joined a monistary. (Talk about getting any opportunity to sin out of your life.)
Well, guess what? Luther continued to sin. He still had problems with forgiveness, with lustful thoughts, with anger, all of the things you and I and every single human being on the face of this earth struggle with.
He was about to give up too. He even wrote down many statements much like the one you just made about giving up and just going to hell. He understood, (Like you do) that he couldnt be perfect. In fact, someone had told him that Popes were completely without sin, (Along with a great number of other heresies) and he knew that these were lies as well, so he figured that he wasn't really even a Christian.
Then he studied Romans.
Romans 5:8 to be more specific.
And that was when he understood.
That it isn't about what YOU can do for Jesus my friend in Christ.
It is all about, what Jesus HAS done for you!!! :groupray:
Would you like to hear more?
You see, once you realize that it all comes from God, and not from you, or me..... then the blessings really begin to flow,.... and you will stop sinning.
Not out of obligation, but rather out of love for Christ. And as you start living your life in ways that are pleasing to Christ, not because you HAVE to, but because you want to out of your love for Him.....
Oh,...... That's when it gets REALLY Great!
