You're not saved until your works catch up with your faith. Your constant fornication must be stopped and, until then, your confessions mean very little, especially if they aren't directed toward a priest.
If we need to be perfect in our works before we can be saved, then heaven will forever be a lonely place, the bible tells us the truth on what we MUST do to be saved...That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. This is the reason it's called grace and we can never earn our way into heaven, also, The Law came in so that the transgression would increase; but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more. So if I need to be perfect on my own power, then I have no chance of going to heaven and neither does anyone else.

Your repentance means nothing if you continue to do what you claim you feel sorry for doing.

You don't need to be perfect. You just need to at least try to stop sinning. Your Lutheran attitude towards sin is not helping you much.
