Will you go to heaven if you're a christian but not saved?

What you have stated is what is known as an 'oxymoron' (see dictionary for definition.) In other words (iow), if one believes (in what the Christian faith teaches) and follows that, then he/she is saved.\n\n"For one believes with the heart and so is justified, and one confesses with the mouth and so is saved."\n\n--Romans 10.10\n\niow, a Christian who follows the path of righteousness is saved. The New Testament does say in places that if one claims to be a Christian and follows unrighteousness then it cannot be said that he is truly following a Christian path.

God is the most important person in my life. I also know that you can go to heaven if you get saved and the way that you get saved is if you believe that Jesus died on the cross from your sins, rose on the third day, and then you have to confess to God in prayer that you are a sinner and that you believe He died on the cross for your sins and ask for His forgiveness on your sins and it is THAT simple, salvation is a free gift, we can't earn it. I am a baptist who believes (let me rephrase that, I KNOW) that this stuff I said is true. My name is Matthew James Needham and don't be shy to contact me on this. my email address is im_proud2b_a_christian@yahoo.com

There might be some, but I believe only Christians will get into heaven - and Christians are people who have no religion but have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ

Many people will tell you many answers to this question. Personally, I am a Christian, and believe in the Bible, which says that we are sinners who have been separated from God. To go to heaven to be with God, I have to be reconciled to Him. That is accomplished through faith in Jesus Christ, His identity, His crucifixion and Resurrection. Please see the reference passages below.

NO.If you believe in Jesus Christ an do whatever He told you from scripture then your reward is Heaven.Because salvation is a gift.

The same way all will get to heaven, accept Jesus Christ as your personal savior, and have no other gods before Jehovah God.I see you are a poet, have you read Song of Solomon?Its in the holy bible, try King James version.

I will do my best to answer your questions.  Yes, we consider ourselves Christians.  We accept Jesus Christ as our Savior and Redeemer.  No, we do not teach that only Mormons go to heaven.  We believe that people will be judged by the knowledge they have.  Thus, if someone grows up without having the word of God, they are only judged by what they were taught in life.\n\nWhen you say "to be saved" do you mean "go to heaven"?  The answer to that question is that, no, we do not think that people have to believe in the Book of Mormon and Joseph Smith to go to heaven.  We are taught that good people will go to heaven.  However, in our religion we are also taught that there are different degrees of heaven.  The better you do on earth, the higher up you go.  The highest degree of heaven is what we call the "Celestial Kingdom".  To get there, we believe that we must accept the gospel of Jesus Christ (and that includes believing in the Book of Mormon and that Joseph Smith is a prophet of God).\n\nThose who are not Mormon can still go to heaven.  And we believe that after this life, people who have died without the chance to hear the gospel will get the chance to hear it in the next life.  And that in the next life, they will have the choice to accept it or reject it.

That's a good question. According to these people, you have to have a personal relatioship with jesus to get into heaven

in a way yes and no. There is a Heaven where all saved people go, but you do not get reincarnated into something else in this world.

we all sin. no one is pure free and sinless. as long as you ask for forgiveness for your sins you will go to heaven. that is why a person should pray every day. i was taught to believe Jesus died for our sins. by accepting Him as your personal savior you will go to heaven.  different people have different ways of believing and that is okay.

If she was a born-again believer then yes. If not, no. You don't get to heaven by works only by God. John 14:6, Ephesians 2:8,9

You don't necessarily have to be good.  As long as you accept Jesus as your savior and really believe in him, you will get into heaven.

going to heaven is based upon grace, not acts... read your bible first, then listen to so-called "spiritual leaders" so you'll know when they're feeding you bs.

yes, those who reject it go to hell. but just because someone doesn't reject the Gospel doesn't mean they are saved. they must accept it in order to be saved and believe in Christ. no one really knows what for sure happens to believers and nonbelievers before judgement day, but i think that they are separated, and then we'll all be judged one day and go to 'our place' eternally. some Biblical whiz probably has a better idea more based on the Bible, but either way, once you die, you'll go to heaven or hell. hopefully you'll/you believe the Gospel and live for God!

April, salvation is a gift that you have to receive but I believe you can also later reject it. Look at the parable of the sower were seed was sown on different ground. Jesus said IF you remain in me I will remain in you. I would loved to believe in once saved always saved but there are just to many warnings in the bible. We still have free will once we are saved, God is not going to drag anybody into heaven. I know the devil sure doesn't give up once your saved. I also don't believe it's something that you can loose just like that for committing a sin and dieing at that moment. I believe you are in danger when you make a conscience decision to go back to the world. I believe that this is easier for a new christian than a more mature one. I don't believe a christian has to live in fear of loosing their salvation.

No.  Christians believe Christ came for all, therefore you would be welcome, as someone who was saved.  There would be hope that you would come to believe.

No they cannot. If pre destination exists and only certain people can get saved then why does the bible say, "WHOSOEVER shall call upon the name of the lord shall be saved" -- Romans 10:13.You also notice the Whosoever in John 3:16. I do believe that God knows who's going to go to heaven, but he still works on everybodys heart so that everyone can choose for them self's.
