"For all have sinned" Romans 3
"The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ (God in the flesh) our Lord." Romans 6
Hell was made for the fallen angels. Man gets to choose where to spend eternity.
"For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast." Ephesians 2
"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man comes to the Father but through Me." - Jesus Christ, John 14
"He who believes in (Jesus Christ-the Only Begotten Son) is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. John 3
No Jesus, no forgiveness. He's the one who paid the price. Know Jesus, know forgiveness, and have a glorious eternity.
It takes one simple honest act of humility before God to believe Him that we are forgiven when asking forgiveness of our sin to be forgiven, and we get to spend eternity in glory. Just like the thief on the cross. It has to be the right God, the only living God of heaven, and it must be a sincere request.
