The G-d of the Jews and Christians sees the heart of a person. He knows their intent and motivation in life. Those who call on His name, for ultimately we all know there is a G-d, will be saved. We as humans can only see part of the person. G-d knows us completely - body, soul, and spirit. G-d is the ultimate judge as to who spends eternity with Him and who will spend eternity in utter darkness and torment. There are many Jews that truly know their messiah, but don't admit it or outwardly show it. Just like there are Christians who admit it and outwardly show it who don't truly know Him.
Since Christ had not conquered Hell, death, and the grave yet, the Old Testament Jews did not yet have the hope of Heaven. Those who had a personal relationship with G-d (i.e. - David) were considered saints. When they died, they went to the Bosom of Abraham (Paradise). While Christ was dead for the three days, He went down to Hell to take the keys to death. When He arose, all of the graves of the saints broke open, releasing the saints to go to Heaven

Christ said that He was the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and no one comes to the Father but through the Son. The only way to inherit eternal life -- even with God's chosen people the Jews -- is through faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. The Father shows no favor with regards to this.
Messianic Jews, however, will hold a very special place in heaven -- even after martyrdom during the tribulation to come -- See Revelation.

Actually 100 percent of Jews don't believe in the trinity. Messianic *Jews* are Christians.
Revelations is some dude's nightmare. Don't worry about the afterlife -- there's plenty you can do today for real, live humans and for your descendants. Ask God to help you make the right choices to bring peace on earth!
“It has been told you, O mortal, what is good, and what the Eternal requires of you – Only this: to do justly, and love mercy, and walk humbly with your God.” Micah 6:1

As you've said: Our Lord Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one can get to the Father but by Him. He is the Resurrection. He is the Goood Shepherd. The True Vine. The Bread of Life. Jesus Christ cried over Jerusalem, and its destruction - during His own lifetime. How many times did He want to gather the jewish people under his arm like a hen with her chicks, but they WOULD NOT have it. It is their loss.... What more could He have done for them. He came unto His own and His own received Him not (John 1). They rejected the true Temple. They killed the true Paschal Lamb. We must pray for the Jews - that they accept the True Messiah and be part of the Church and the New Law He founded - which supercedes the Old.

This is a difficult question. There are so many different religions. I guess only your personal beliefs can answer that question. I understand that you are still asking, but there is no concrete evidence of it going either way.
Also, I believe that jews only believe that a certain number of people will be going to heaven anyhow.. that would be something to read up on.
There is a book called the Jewish book of Why.. This may give you a good background on the jewish religion if interested.

Yes if they don't accept Christ as Lord and Savior. However, the end of this world is based for the Jews. They will be given this opportunity to accept Jesus as the Messiah. Their hearts are hardened now, but many shall come to realize that the Messiah they have waited to come for centuries came and their ancestors along with the Romans killed Him. They will come by the hundreds of millions to know Him.

They eliminated Jesus Christ from this Earth.
Furthermore, they had their dirty job (killing Him) made by the Romans by mischievously telling lies about Him.
Don't be surprised that they have a so negative image through the face of the whole world today.
This is called law of just retribution.
Remember they are responsible of killing our Savior Lord.
How could you live with so great a sin on your soul?
I don't condemn people but their sin!

No, Jews go to the bosom of Abraham. There is no heaven or hell in their religion. That was an invention by Christians to reward compliance and punish rejection of their belief system.

I am a Christian and NO - I do not think they will go to hell. Plus, they DO believe in him. They just don't believe he is the Son of God.
Do some research....
p.s. Jesus was a Jew
