I Want to Find Inner Peace

Jesus Christ died for you! The son of God was scourged and battered for your sake. He came to pay a debt He did not owe because you who owed it could not pay it. As a sheep to the slaughter, He was crucified; sinless and without blame, He was, and yet words and thorns were hurled at Him; and through it all, He spoke not a word. He proclaimed not evil against His prosecutors, for their injustice, and neither did He cry His Innocence; all these, He did because of you!  He knew that all that must happen, leading on to crucifixion, so that with His death - the Lamb of God laid out just as a sacrifice - you might be able to come into salvation, being bought into His righteousness (for He lived a sinless life living by God's law, His delight being in the fear of the Lord.)

He who was rich, full of glory, left His heavenly abode and became poor for your sake that you might be bought out from being a slave to sin to a child of God; from death to eternal life; from Hell to Heaven; from tribulations to testimonies; from Conquered to Conqueror; from sufferer to succeeder.

Repent of your sins and accept Christ as Lord and Saviour; believe the Gospel, the report of Christ. Have faith in Him.
If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. No longer shall the devil have authority over your life, working hard against you.

Jesus loves you. Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand; God's great day of judgement is near. Please, repent.

KINGKYRIE-

Your ignorance is bliss, sir.

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it." - John 1:1‭-‬5

When Adam and Eve decided to disobey God, they in turn brought sin and death into this world, thereby causing an originally perfect world to be imperfect.
Sin is the direct opposite of God, whom is perfect in holiness/righteousness; it keeps us apart from God just as the East is to the West. It is just as a glorious gulf - figuratively speaking - between us and God; there is no way possible that we might by ourselves come to God. It is a curse upon man, brought by man, passed along by blood. Therefore, without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sins, for for one to be made righteous, such a one's unrighteousness must be vanquished; and it is impossible that we make ourselves righteous, because we are born in sin and live by it - we are slaves to it- and for that reason did Christ come.
He came to pay a debt He did not owe because we who owed could not pay it (for the wages of sin is death). He came because He loves us; and unconditionally, He does. He freely offered His life for us because He greatly loves us and has no delight in the damnation we have bought ourselves. He died and rose on the third day; by His death, He conquered death and hell.
Christ lived a perfect life in obedience to God's law, and by that, was the perfect sacrifice in other that we might be redeemed. Therefore those who forsake their sins, giving their life to Him, are bought out of slavery in sin to eternal life; they are covered by His sinless blood and are made righteous before God by it.

 2 Corinthians 5:17-21
17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
20 Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God. 21 For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
