.I feel I have never become a Christian truly. The sinners prayer never saves. I don't even know if I accepted Jesus as Lord and Christ etc. there is SO MUCH to salvation. Some even say baptism is necessary. So I'm going to hell as I haven't found a way to get that done
What can we do..
We need a child-like faith, like how an innocent child can easily trust the words or promises of his/her good father or mother or other good adults. Faith/trust/belief will not be easy for children who have been abused.
While we are still living on this earth, God has promised to bless those who keep His Law. In this way, good and law-abiding believers can taste the love and goodness of God the Father-in-heaven.
God/Jesus has also promised to prepare a place in heaven for us after we die(JOHN.14:1-6). Not believing or trusting or having faith in God's/Jesus's word or promise is to treat Him like a lying and bad father.
.
P S - At ACTS.15:24-29, God has exempted new Gentile Christians from any law of Moses which is a burden, eg circumcision and kosher foods. They are not exempted from any law which is not a burden, esp morality laws, eg the Ten Commandments(EXODUS.20), DEUT.18:9-14, LEV.10:9 & 18:22, etc.
... In comparison, new Jewish Christians are required by God to continue to keep Moses Law, as many as possible, because it is not a burden to them.
Those "Christians" who wantonly or ignorantly commit sins/evil-deeds/law-breaking risk losing their salvation while suffering horribly for their sins, eg by cursing/blaspheming God/Jesus and die, like the wife of Job. Be warned by DEUT.28:15, JOB, 1COR.5:5 & 11:30, 1JOHN.5:16-19, HEBREWS.10:26-31, 1COR.6:9-11, REV.22:12-15, ie sins/evil-deeds/law-breaking have consequences - some may lead to a horrible early death(= risk losing salvation/faith) and some may not, eg convicted murderers are usually executed and traffic offenders only have to pay a fine.
Being saved from hell after death rests solely on faith/trust/belief in Jesus as the Christ/Messiah/Savior.(JOHN.3:16, GALATIANS.2:16, eg LUKE.23:43)
