so far the people that have answered this question are making a joke about Hell. Hell is not a joke, and if they don't soon change their way of thinking, they will end up in Hell, cus its no joke. Our time on earth is to be like Him. And if you sin, you don't go to Hell. Thats ignorant thinking, cus everyone sins. Its if you don't reconcile your sins, you will go to Hell. So always reconcile and move on a better person.

Not just any sin will send you straight to hell. Only mortal sins can do that.
A mortal sin is a grave infraction of the law of God that destroys the divine life in the soul of the sinner (sanctifying grace), constituting a turn away from God. For a sin to be mortal, three conditions must be present: grave matter, full knowledge of the evil of the act, and full consent of the will.
Most of the sins we commit are venial sins. Venial sin is a sin which does not destroy the divine life in the soul, as does mortal sin, though it diminishes and wounds it. Venial sin is the failure to observe necessary moderation, in lesser matters of the moral law, or in grave matters acting without full knowledge or complete consent.
However consistent unrepentant venial sins can slowly destroy your relationship with God and become mortal sin.
People die all the time with venial sins on their conscience and they will go to heaven.
With love in Christ.

Hell is a place where we experience the Just consequences of the harm/pain we inflicted on others during our lives on earth (either through our actions or inaction).
If we commit our lives to Jesus Christ (sincerely, in repentance, and turning away from sin) then we are guaranteed heaven. If we dont, we arent guaranteed heaven. Which makes the warm-place the more likely end-destination...
Cordially,
John

We all sin and fall short from the glory of God.
Jesus died for our sins on the cross so that we do not have to be separated from God after we die. He died for all of our sins. ALL of them. We get saved only by the mercy and grace of God.
God gave us free will. The Bible says that no one will enter to the Father's house except through Jesus. He does not want to lose anyone but you need to make decision to accept Him as your Lord and Savior.
You do not need to be a bad person to miss heaven, just to be ignorant toward His teachings. Delay your decision a little while longer. You have time until you die.
"The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare. That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire and the elements will melt in heat. BUT IN KEEPING WITH HIS PROMISE WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO A NEW HEAVEN, AND A NEW EARTH, THE HOME OF RIGHTEOUSNESS." 2 Peter 3:10

There is no hell or heaven; but your thinking makes it so- says Milton through the mouth of Satan. Even if that happens to be words of Satan, there is a ring of truth in it. I look at life and death from the point of view of Karma. Karma is a concept which, in nutshell, means that you reap what you sow. Your present fortunes and misfortunes, as you perceive it, are conditioned by your actions in previous birth and the present actions carry their consequences well into the future birth. This may sound very simplistic, but is the fulcrum of all the belief of the Oriental religions.

- Romans 3:23 For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of GOD.
- Romans 5:8 For God demonstrates his love for us through this: even though we were sinners, Christ died for us.
- Romans 10:9 For if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is lord and belive in your heart that God raised him from the dead then you will be saved.
So if you believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord, and believe that he died for your sins then you will be saved and not go to hell.

I think ALL people sin, so no.....But I think if you do not accept the free gift of salvation that God offers you, then you have a good chance of going there...
Accept Jesus as your savior, ask the Spirit into your heart and turn from evil....

everyone is going to hell because we all sin. the only way to go to heaven is to trust in god that he sent jesus to die on the cross as payment for our sin.
