Hello, I'm new to this site and new to Christianity I suppose, although I've been toying with it for a while now. I first said the sinners prayer a few years ago and felt a warm glowey feeling inside upon completion of that prayer but as I didn't really know what I was saying or who I was praying too, i went back to my sinful life the next day. As of late I've tried to get to know more about God through reading the Bible and prayer including the sinners prayer more than once but it feels as though I've hit a wall and God doesnt hear my prayers. I believe Jesus is the son of God and came to pay for our sins and that He is the only way to heaven and I've been told that's all you need to believe in your heart and your saved but I don't feel saved. I lived a bad life in the past and I'm thinking God maybe won't forgive me. I'm not sure what's brought me to this site, maybe reassurance or to gain knowledge about God but I'm here. I'm not part of a church at the moment although I've attended a few services and have always felt nervous about relaying my fears to the pastors or church elders as there a few issues in the Bible I just can't get my head around and don't want to offend anyone. Would love to talk to someone on here who could help me with my questions and fears of God.
