Given that there was a path of forgiveness for even the very soldiers who executed Jesus, then God will be willing to forgive you your sins if and only if you turn from your sins and ask for his forgiveness, based on what Jesus has done on the cross.

Jesus, an innocent man, was condemned to a cruel death, and a murdering rebel was released.< br>
We’re forgiven because he was condemned.< br>
We’re accepted because he was rejected. < br>
And we live forever because he died for our sins.

Apart from Christ’s sacrifice, there was no other way for human beings to be saved from Hell. There were no other options. No other religion could save us; only the blood of Jesus can save, and not our own efforts. We cannot be saved by trying our best to please God.

becoming a Christian isn’t about what we can do for God but about what God can do for us. When we cry out to him for forgiveness, he saves us. And as we go on in the Christian life, he keeps us.
