What about righteous Jews? Is Jonah Salk, a Jew, not in heaven even though he saved millions of lives with his polio vaccine? How about  a Christian Nazi who killed an innocent Jew? Is the Nazi in heaven and not the Jew?

That question has many answears depending on your believes. You can go to heaven, you can reincarnate in something else, or become nothing after your life cycle ends. There is really no answear to a question like that, for no one knows the answear

Ask someone who has been there and back. Jesus, Paul, John. They all said heaven is real. So when I die, I will be in eternity. I do not know what that is like, but I know its going to be awesome. I'm just thrilled that my ticket to go there was bought and paid for in advance!!

You ask a good question, and one that is misunderstood by a large portion of the Christian world. There are good people in all faiths, countries, lands, etc... I believe some are closer to the truth than others, and some are way off in lala land. But as long as their focused on their beliefs, they try to be good people, they are a positive influence on society; they will have their just reward. If you never believe in God, or you never had a chance to hear about God (if you lived in some small country with no TV and no radio or outside visitors), then why wouldn't you get the chance to hear about God later (after death)? Everyone will have a chance to hear about God, to accept his teachings, or to deny them. Whether it’s in this life or the next. The true test is while on this earth, if you have had a chance and believed and then denied your belief, you are screwed. If you never believed, you will have to accept God after death, which isn't a sure thing. We will carry our personality with us into the next life. Some will still deny God even after death. Search your heart while on earth. There is truth out there. If you never find it, just be a good person and contribute positively to those around you. Forgiveness is nothing to God, almost all sins are forgivable. What will be determined in the end is where your glory lies. In Gods house are many mansions, not all in Beverly Hills, some are in the slums, which do you want to live in? Remember, there is not just one degree of glory in heaven, there are three. Each determined by your worthiness. We all will go to heaven; we just won't all be in the same neighborhood. Also, it’s not just about accepting Jesus. You also have to do good things. Just saying you follow Jesus and actually following are two separate things.

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.

you do exist forever. your body is only a house for your soul. when you die, the soul/ you, lives on. If you have not accepted christ as your savior, you will go to hell. if you are his child and have accepted him you will go to heaven. it's that simple. question is, where do you want to exist forever?

I never understood it either.  I think Christ is one way to get to Heaven, but there are other ways too.  I don't think God would look at me and say, did Jesus check you in?  No?  Then leave!  I think that if the stories about Christ are true, then he was a good man and a very spiritually advanced being.  But not the only way into Heaven.\n\nBlessed be.

There is something that is called free will.  \n\nYou do not get to do whatever you want and go to heaven . . . . . it is said Jesus will not return to the earth until every person has heard the truth.  You have people who are put in your path in life and they were maybe only there to tell you . . . Jesus loves you and accept him and you will go to heaven.\n\nThat seed was planted, you now have the knowledge and decide to listen or not.\n\nSame with Christians, they can decide to listen to God and follow him or not.  There are Christians that will go to hell.  \n\nThe difference is they know that God is a loving and forgiving God and as long as you are not intentionally sinning and saying you are covered by the spirit, you can and anyone can ask for forgiveness at any time.\n\nBy the way there are different places in heaven . . . . . everyone is not going to the same "level" if you will.

It's very simple.  If you have accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, you are going to heaven.  Those who don't in their lifetimes will be condemned to hell.  Once you are saved, there is no earthly or spiritual power that can remove your salvation.

I don't necessarily believe in the whole Christianity heaven/hell concept, but if I did, I would say that where you go after death depends on what's in your heart, not what comes out of your mouth, or where you spend your Sundays. I can't imagine that God would find much good in the hearts of Hitler or the other fellows you mention. I think a good hearted Pagan or Jew or Muslim or Buddhist or whatever has a better shot at heaven than a bad person who states they accept Jesus. I think people worry a lot more about labels (like Christian, or Jew, etc.) than God does.

We'll never know. And what's the point of knowing anyways? If you know you go to an afterlife paradise like heaven... won't you just kill yourself? If you know that you would go into another life, like reincarnation... you'll still forget everything you know now, so you wouldn't know that you've been through reincarnation in your new life... what do you know? This life may be your five thousandth reincarnation... what's the point of knowing if you'll forget in your new life?\n\nThese kind of questions are just there to let us ponder... let us know that we'll never know... yet still ponder...

NO ONE IS GUARANTEED HEAVEN!\n\nI can only pray that Jesus judges me worthy...\n\nI can only get to heaven through Jesus. Also, it is not just by this faith in Jeuss, nor just the Grace of God, nor just the works that I do. It is a combination of many things. \n\nWe receive God's saving and sanctifying grace in many ways, and Christ Himself, into our souls when we are baptized.  Yet they also know that Christ Himself has established certain conditions for entry into eternal happiness in Heaven.\n\n"Jesus said to them, "Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life within you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day. For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him. Just as the living Father sent me and I have life because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on me will have life because of me. This is the bread that came down from heaven. Unlike your ancestors who ate and still died, whoever eats this bread will live forever."" (John 6:53-58)\n\nWe will be judged by this as well, so be warned...\n\n"Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will have to answer for the body and blood of the Lord. A person should examine himself, and so eat the bread and drink the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body, eats and drinks judgment on himself."  (1 Cor. 11:27-29).\n\nWe will also be judged by our faith, but not by this alone, we will also be judged by the works that we do (Justification by faith alone is a Protestant doctrine; it was unheard of in the Christian community before the sixteenth century.)...\n\nIf St. Paul meant that faith ruled out the necessity of good works for salvation, he would not have written:  \n\n". . . and if I should have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing."  (1 Cor. 13:2).  \n\nIf faith ruled out the necessity of good works for salvation, the Apostle James would not have written:  \n\n"Do you see that by works a man is justified; and not by faith only'? . . . For even as the body without the spirit is dead; so also faith without works is dead."  (James 2:24-26).  \n\nIf faith ruled out the necessity of good works for salvation, the Apostle Peter would not have written:  \n\n"Therefore, brothers, be all the more eager to make your call and election firm, for, in doing so, you will never stumble. For, in this way, entry into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ will be richly provided for you."  (2 Peter 1:10-11).\n\nIf faith was the only necessity for salvation, the Apostle James would not have written:  \n\n"If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, his religion is vain. Religion that is pure and undefiled before God and the Father is this: to care for orphans and widows in their affliction and to keep oneself unstained by the world." (James 1:26-27)\n\nChrist Himself stated:\n\n"For the Son of man . . . will render to every man according to his works."  (Matt. 16:27). \n\nI need my faith also...\n\n"Who were those who rebelled when they heard? Was it not all those who came out of Egypt under Moses? With whom was he "provoked for forty years"? Was it not those who had sinned, whose corpses fell in the desert? And to whom did he "swear that they should not enter into his rest," if not to those who were disobedient? And we see that they could not enter for lack of faith."(Hebrews 3:16-19)\n\nWhen I die, I will not enter the kingdom of Heaven immediately, either...\n\nThe Bible distinguishes between those who enter Heaven straightaway, calling them "the church of the firstborn" (Heb. 12:23), and those who enter after having

Christianity believes that as long as you claim you love Jesus and believe he is the Son of God right as you die, you'll go to Heaven. So, be Atheist, kill everybody, and then right before you die say you believe Jesus is the Son of God... and you're in Heaven... sounds like it does to me. :)

Depends on what you believe.  Under christianity, NO.\n\nBUT nothing says they have the answer.  I'd say you can get into heaven by doing that  - YES.\n(there's just no guarantee it's the same one they are thinking of - we'll all find out one day - one way or another.)

I can see that you are not having all the fun that you can stand.\nWhen or if you decide to recieve Christ as your Saviour then life will take on some meaning and you will begin to understand what is going on here on planet earth.  When you die, it either gets very very good or very very bad.

My Friend: I am asking you the most important question of life. Your joy or your sorrow for all eternity depends upon your answer. The question is: Are you saved? It is not a question of how good you are, nor if you are a church member, but are you saved? Are you sure you will go to Heaven when you die? \n\nGod says in order to go to Heaven, you must be born again. In John 3:7, Jesus said to Nicodemus, “Ye must be born again.” \n\nIn the Bible God gives us the plan of how to be born again which means to be saved. His plan is simple! You can be saved today. How? \n\nFirst, my friend, you must realize you are a sinner. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). \n\nBecause you are a sinner, you are condemned to death. “For the wages [payment] of sin is death” (Romans 6:23). This includes eternal separation from God in Hell. \n\n“ . . . it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment” (Hebrews 9:27). \n\nBut God loved you so much He gave His only begotten Son, Jesus, to bear your sin and die in your place. “ . . . He hath made Him [Jesus, Who knew no sin] to be sin for us . . . that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him” (2 Corinthians 5:21). \n\nJesus had to shed His blood and die. “For the life of the flesh is in the blood” (Lev. 17:11). “ . . . without shedding of blood is no remission [pardon]” (Hebrews 9:22). \n\n“ . . . God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8). \n\nAlthough we cannot understand how, God said my sins and your sins were laid upon Jesus and He died in our place. He became our substitute. It is true. God cannot lie. \n\nMy friend, “God . . . commandeth all men everywhere to repent” (Acts 17:30). This repentance is a change of mind that agrees with God that one is a sinner, and also agrees with what Jesus did for us on the Cross. \n\nIn Acts 16:30-31, the Philippian jailer asked Paul and Silas: “ . . . ‘Sirs, what must I do to be saved?’ And they said, ‘Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved . . . .’ ” \n\nSimply believe on Him as the one who bore your sin, died in your place, was buried, and whom God resurrected. His resurrection powerfully assures that the believer can claim everlasting life when Jesus is received as Savior. \n\n“But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name” (John 1:12). \n\n“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13). \n\nWhosoever includes you. Shall be saved means not maybe, nor can, but shall be saved. \n\nSurely, you realize you are a sinner. Right now, wherever you are, repenting, lift your heart to God in prayer. \n\nIn Luke 18:13, the sinner prayed: “God be merciful to me a sinner.” Just pray: “Oh God, I know I am a sinner. I believe Jesus was my substitute when He died on the Cross. I believe His shed blood, death, burial, and resurrection were for me. I now receive Him as my Savior. I thank You for the forgiveness of my sins, the gift of salvation and everlasting life, because of Your merciful grace. Amen.” \n\nJust take God at His word and claim His salvation by faith. Believe, and you will be saved. No church, no lodge, no good works can save you. Remember, God does the saving. All of it! \n\nGod’s simple plan of salvation is: You are a sinner. Therefore, unless you believe on Jesus Who died in your place, you will spend eternity in Hell. If you believe on Him as your crucified, buried, and risen Savior, you receive forgiveness for all of your sins and His gift of eternal salvation by faith. \n\nYou say, “Surely, it cannot be that simple.” Yes, that simple! It is scriptural. It is God’s plan. My friend, believe on Jesus and receive Him as Savior today. \n\nIf His plan is not perfectly clear, read this tract over and over, without laying it down, until you understa
