Tomas... NEVER think that you have sinned too much for God to accept you. God is forgiving, that's why he sent Jesus to die for our sins, "so that whosoever believeth in him shall not perish, but have everlasting life". If you accept Jesus as your savior, you sins will be washed away! ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS BELIEVE IN JESUS AS YOUR SAVIOR. I cannot stress this enough.

I can tell you want to believe. So read this thoroughly, and really give it thought...

One beauty of gods creation is this. If you're not willing to except Christianity, then you're free to reject it. this freedom to make choices, even the freedom to reject truth is what makes us moral creatures and enables each of us to choose our ultimate destiny. this really hits at the heart of why we exist at all, and what God might not be as overt to revealing himself as a some of us would like. for if the Bible is true that God has provided each of us with the opportunity to make an eternal choice to either except him or reject, and in order to ensure that our choic is truly free, He puts us in an environment that is filled with evidence of his existence but without his direct presence... A presence so  powerful that it could overwhelm our freedom and thus negate our ability to reject him. in other words, God has provided enough evidence in this life to convince anyone willing to believe it. he has also left some ambiguity so as to not compel the unwilling. in this way, God gives us the opportunity to either to love him or to reject him without violating our freedom. in fact, the purpose of this life is to make that choice freely and without coercion. for love, by definition must be freely given. it cannot be coerced. That's why CS Lewis wrote "the irresistible and the indisputable are the two weapons which the very nature of God's scheme forbids him to use. Merely to over-ride a human will (as his felt presence in any but the faintest and most mitigated degree would certainly do) would be for him useless. he cannot ravish. He can only woo."

And no, it will not include loads of alcohol, parties and weed. It will be just like Eden. Pure, unspoiled, and beautiful.
