^That is a good collection of verses.^ Thank you.
Whenever a person, no matter how drenched in sin they are, accepts Christ into their lives their sins are marked, "paid in full at the cross", and the righteousness of the one that paid for those sins is transferred on to that person. We look like Christ to our Father. He sees, not what we did, but what His Son did.

When a person should make that transition is right now. Sin will not enter Heaven, and you may not be here tomorrow. Unless you have been given your expiration date, you are playing Russian roulette with your eternity. God sure didn't. He paid our debt, and offered the access to a blissful forever as a gift. Be gracious enough to accept your gift, and live.

Not doing so is like being voted off the island with the immunity idol in your pocket.
You could have been saved, but refused to use the only thing that saves you.
