More likely you found the claims to be true because you wanted them to be true. No, hey, it's cool man, if you've found a religion you like and enjoy and if it gives your life meaning, then great for you. Just don't come here and try to convince everyone else that they'll get the same warm fuzzies from your religion that you do. We just have higher standards of proof for religious claims than you do.
So, do you think every path is valid? Do you believe in absolute truth or relative truth?

All Christians are saved, but not all Christians are Christians. Christians are commanded by God to preach the gospel, so, if a Christian isn't doing that they are in fact disobeying what God told them to do.

There are no such laws, there is no such offer, there is no such thing as a "son" of god, nor is there any such thing as the god to which you are referring. The heart does not control or manipulate your emotions or beliefs, the resurrection narrative is a myth, and anything you confessed to this fiction would simply float off your lips and into thin air. You won't be "saved" any more than I, for all of the reasons above. The rest of your post is gibberish for all of the reasons above.
Welcome aboard.
Hey Rhythm. Do you have any evidence that God does not exist?

And if Jesus really did pay for our sins, let's get his money's worth!
You're on the hook for your own sins. Jesus made a way for everyone to be forgiven for their sins and have eternal life. If you reject that, you're on your own.

The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
