I believe in Jesus, and the reason for his death and resurrection. However, after knowing the truth, I committed many terrible wrongs. Could it be that I am currently worshiping in vain and will go to hell no matter how much repented and asked for forgiveness?
No.
John 6:28 Then they said to Him, “What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?” 29 Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.”
I don’t know if you are saved or not. I pray you are. I can say that mere mental assent to the facts of the gospel does not equal salvation. I can also say He is able to save to the uttermost. No sin is too great.
We are saved by looking wholly to Him, not our works. We have no sin that He can’t put away. The idea that our sin post conversion would tear us from Him flies in the face of what Scripture teaches. If you are saved your sin has been put away forever. In Romans 7 Paul laments that he does what he doesn’t want to do and isn’t able to do what he should. That’s certainly true of me. And it will always be true this side of eternity because we live in fallen sinful bodies in a fallen world.
We are never actually sinless or righteous in this life. Rather, by trusting wholly in Him through faith we are declared as righteous, holy (holy = set apart), and as spotless as Christ Himself. When God looks upon a man who has been born again He doesn’t see that man’s sin, He sees the righteousness of His sinless Son. A man who has been saved has had Christ’s righteousness imputed to His account and it cannot be taken away. At the same time, those who are born again have their sin imputed to Him. That is known as the “great exchange.” Few teach imputation anymore. Nevertheless, it remains true and it’s a great comfort.
Look to Him alone and be saved! He is able!

My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit. A broken and contrite heart you, O God, will not despise.
We must put our faith in Christ. You and I have both done terrible things: but God is Mercy itself. He will have mercy, if we too are merciful.
I need to say more than this. We must be very sure that our faith, our trust in Christ inspires us to do good and to help our neighbors. If we do not have love, we are nothing.
What good is it, my brothers, if someone claims to have faith, but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you tells him, “Go in peace; stay warm and well fed,” but does not provide for his physical needs, what good is that? So too, faith by itself, if it is not complemented by action, is dead.
Hope this is helpful.
