This doesn't sound like you were that secure in your faith and that you didn't know you'd be in heaven forever. If your experience was of God you would know that God would not send you to hell for doubting and that your terror was unfounded. What kind of God did you think he was? He sounds awful. Do you not realise that God's love runs so much deeper than this? If he would get so hung up about some kid having doubts then I'm in big trouble mate. I've got some news for you. The god you projected in your mind was not the real living God.
