If I want to get into heaven, but the people I love are nonbelievers, wouldn't heaven be a sad place for me?

Good question! Maybe it's like a comfort thing?\nBut surely, if you love Jesus and have that assurance that you're going to heaven, death is a good thing...Provided it's at the right time of course.

If you believe in heaven and hell, then you'd believe that you have to do good things to get into heaven, and bad things to get into hell. If you indescriminately nuke people then you'll probably go to the hotter one of the two.

My friend, I agree with you, yet I also see a more pressing matter at hand. What about those persecutors and all the non-believers? If they die, they will not rejoice with all of us in heaven with the Lord God. I will pray for both the believers and the non-believers. There isn't much I can do from my present state but pray and preach the Word, since i'm not in a position to do anything but that. Email me if you have questions or are a fellow believer in Christ at questinchrist@yahoo.com. God bless

I don't go to church because I don't believe in god, heaven, or hell. I've tried to find a religion to believe in, and have gone to a few different churches. But religion just isn't for me.

Boy, would I feel foolish for living a good Christian life.\n\nSeriously, I would feel good knowing that people like you would make it to heaven.\n\n(no offense intended, I seem to remember that you are not a believer in God, and that was my intent - that non-believers like yourself would make it to heaven)

Christ, who goes to heaven?  I don't expect the ten points, though.  You can't give them to me.  Anyway, I am not 'Christian'.

Because being naked in Heaven would be sacreligious!! :O\n\nBut seriously........Heaven is not tangible. You can't reach out and touch Heaven, see Heaven. It is much more of an abstract. We hear of this promise of Heaven. But until we actually reach our own Heaven, we'll never "see" it for what it truly is.

those who hope that they will go to heaven don't feel of death because they are expecting a better life .\nbut those who have no hope at all like being alife

That is a difficult, because You are probably referring towards a hypothetical question, but when You have faith, there are no answers but the ones already provided for us.  The Bible says ashes to ashes, dust to dust.  So it wouldn't do any good to even try to take something with You.  If Anyone lives their life according to the word of GOD, then in the after life, there will be a Kingdom awaiting that is far too beautiful to even try to describe, other than there will be streets of gold, that is why they call this place Heaven.

A, of course, most christians do not realize that they already are in heaven on earth.  When we die it will be all over, the end. We don't even know that once we were part of human race.\n\nSo, don't look forward to be with God in Heaven, this is the only life we have, enjoy it while you can.

Yes, if had a relationship with Jesus Christ.  Religion gets no one to heaven.  It's faith in Jesus Christ and that personal relationship that gets people to heaven - that and that alone.  Not our works. Not our deeds. Not our good intents and actions.  No, just our faith in Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer, is our way to heaven. Not our loyalty, not our parents, not our words.  No, just our faith in Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer, is our way to heaven.  I just wrote that I was typing - it must have been just for you!

Deep down I think everyone knows that there is a heaven and a hell. If you are really seeking and searching, ask the Lord if He is real, and if so, to show Himself to you in some sort of personal way. If I didn't know the Lord, I would be very afraid of what might happen to me after I died.  The thought of facing Jesus after I've died, and knowing that I denied Him, in this life is a very real thing. Good question!

I don't believe in your Heaven, but I am a spiritual person. What I've found is that those who practice non-violence tend to be very loving people. The non-violent ones are the ones who work as medics and such in the Military. They place themselves in harm's way, just as much as the ones doing the fighting, but do so without weapons.\n\nNon-violent people, such as the Quakers do not sit idly by, but are active.\n\nSelf-denial does not preclude action. People who practice self-denial tend to be the ones giving offerings to the poor and needy.\n\nTrying to practice self-denial and non-violence without service or charity is probably pointless, and it would be the rare sort who would do so. It would be like being greedy and self-less at the same time. The spiritual aspects of non-violence and self-denial go hand-in-hand with charity and action. Doing one without the other is like trying to take a sight-seeing tour in a vehicle with blackened windows. Action without purpose is pointless.

Hello bc_munkee.. :)\n\nI used to be an atheist..so I can understand where you are coming from..\n\nThere was a time I used to feel and think the same way..but ever since Jesus came into my life..I want to help others..feed the hungry..clothe the needy..visit the sick and also those in prison..\n\nWe all should care about others and if that seems wrong to some..then so be it..For I am happy knowing that if I can help, even if it is in just some small way..\n\nIt does not matter what faith someone may be, even if they have none..My hearts desire is just want to help to try and stop poverty, suffering, hatred, hunger, greed..\n\nIs it so wrong, to bring a ray of sunshine into someones life.. :)\n\nIn Jesus Most Precious Name..\nWith Love..In Christ..

I am a Christian and I believe that God loves ALL people and that yes, Gays will go to Heaven. It doesn't matter what their sexual preference is. As long as they are good people they will find themselves in Heaven when they die.

God loves us and has given us second chances a ton of times, hey, He even sent his son to die for us. I truly believe that people will be given a second chance after Christ's second coming and will be able to go to Heaven. I'm sure your friend was a good person, and in the end I believe that's what matters most. God loves us and doesn't want us to suffer, so why wouldn't he help those who were good, but a little misguided?
