Many people in the Gospel asked that very same question
directly to Jesus and let's see what the reply was;
"And behold, one came up to him, saying, "Teacher, what good deed must I do, to have eternal life?"
"And he said to him, "Why do you ask me about what is good? One there is who is good. If you would enter life, keep the commandments." Matthew 19:16-17
Here according to Jesus, to enter Heaven, we follow the
commandments.
A question to the Christians is: why would Jesus mislead this man if the 'only way to heaven was through the blood of Jesus'?
Was Jesus misleading this man by teaching that Works will open the Gates of Heaven?

"Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 5:10
Here Jesus says that Martyrs will go to Heaven, those who die and suffer for a good cause will go to Heaven.
