AnonymousUser000 NoviceWell, I want to become a christian. I want to feel the happiness you feel. The only thing is, I won't be able to attend church on sunday until I'm older because my family wouldn't let me. I have been atheist for the past few years. Will God still forgive me and wash away my sins despite the fact I won't be able to attend church? Also, I would like to thank you for letting me the light of God. I hope you answer!

I'm Christian, and of course God will forgive you. Going to church isn't exactly mandatory. In fact many churches don't even represent what God believes. Really you could just read the Bible on your own, and if you have any questions ask other believers and maybe research what they've been saying on the topic.
The only thing you need to do to become a Christian is accept Jesus Christ as your savior, and 'repent' which basically means acknowledge that you've done wrong in your life and try not to do it anymore (Which you will. We're all sinners and mess up). Basically it's simply a love for God and Jesus, that you want to please him and be closer to him.
My belief about heaven and hell isn't that 'oh bad people go to hell!'. Heaven would be complete closeness with God, therefore it would be a good place because God is all good. Hell is complete absence of God's love and understanding, so it's the most evil and vile place there is. Why? Because God is complete good and purity, and Satan rebelled from him, making him the opposite.
That means no matter what you've done in your life, God wants you to come back to him and protect you. He's truly like a Father, a good father. Not like some dads on earth that abandon and hurt their kids. He'll be there for you and love you, even when you mess up. He just wants us to try. He loves us, and wants to guide us to do well. That's a much different picture than what most people try to make God looks like. Some sort of hate monger and someone who's out to get us. There's just a lot of misunderstandings of it within and outside of the 'church'.
To anyone who isn't Christian reading this, please don't attack me or AU00 for sharing this belief. The only reason I'm saying this is because they are showing a true interest in what I believe, so I'm not at all shoving my beliefs down anyone's throat. So please, if you believe in equal tolerance, I would hope you wouldn't spread hate here. .3. -
