"Do you think you are going to go to Heaven when you die?"






The Good News - How to be saved from Hell. Answer

How do you know the Bible is true? Answer


Response to 'Do you think you are going to go to Heaven?' How does your response compare?

* Yes (55%)
* Hope so - Not sure (35%)
* Going to hell (4%)
* There is no heaven (6%)

If you know you are going to Hell, or if you deny there is any Heaven or Hell, we strongly urge you to consider your situation very carefully. We are convinced that Hell is a very real place. See why, and learn why you will want to avoid it at all costs. We know the topic is unpleasant, but this issue is much too important to ignore.

* Is there an actual place called “Hell”?
* Why was Hell made?
* Is there anyone in Hell today?
* Will there literally be a burning fire in Hell?
* What should you be willing to do to stay out of Hell?
* How can a God of love send anybody to Hell?
* What if I don't believe in Hell?

Beware, although most people say “yes” or “I think so” when asked “Are you going to Heaven?”, many are sadly incorrect about their ultimate destination. Most believe they qualify for Heaven because of one of the following wrong reasons.

I'm basically a good person "I'm basically a good person" (60%)
When you say you believe you are a pretty decent person, keep in mind that it is because you are comparing yourself on man's scale, not on God's. If you compare yourself to Hitler or Charles Manson, certainly you seem to be "good". But what if you compared yourself to Mother Teresa? Most people fall somewhere in the middle of these two extremes.

The Bible teaches that no one is good (Romans 3:10). Not you. Not me. Not Mother Teresa. Not the Catholic saints. Not even the Prophets God sent to earth in centuries past. Only God is good. (Luke 18:18-20)

Do you realize that it is impossible for a good, holy, perfect, truthful God to have in His presence anyone who has even made one mistake? Since that is the case, we have a problem: how can we come to live with a Holy God?

I haven't harmed anybody "I've never hurt anyone" (2% response)
Are you sure you've never hurt anyone? Have you considered the things you speak to others? Jesus warns in Matthew 5:21-22 that even being unjustly angry with someone puts you in danger of judgment. Also, how many people have you hurt because of things you failed to do?

I try to keep the 10 Commandments "I've tried to keep the 10 Commandments" (5%)
First, take a look at this before answering:
What does God expect of me?

Now can you honestly say you've never lied--even a "little white lie"? Never stolen--even just a paper clip? Perhaps you've never committed adultery in the physical act, but did you know that Jesus said that lusting after someone is the same to God?

If you've broken even just one law one time, that makes you a lawbreaker. If you will listen, your own conscience will tell you that you are certainly a law breaker.
See: Am I good enough for heaven?

I go to church "I go to church" (8%)
Going to church is a good thing. (See >> Why should Christians go to church? and >> How can I find a good church?) But if you think that just going to church is good enough to earn your way to heaven, take a look at Romans 3:27 and Ephesians 2:8. These passages are clear that nothing we can do on earth (like trying to go to church to gain merit with God) can make us righteous in His never-failing sight.

Jesus had strong words for the Pharisees of His day. They tried to merit favor with God by acting religious. But Jesus called them "a brood of vipers". See also Matthew 9:11, 12:39, 16:1-4; Luke 7:39, 18:11.

I believe in God "I believe in God" (10%)
Perhaps you think that belief in God is good enough to get you to heaven. But consider this: since Satan and his demons believe that God is real, does that mean they too will be in heaven? (James 2:19) See also Romans 1:20.

I've done the best I could "I've done the best I could" (15%)
Maybe you have tried to do the right thing for the most part. You've made some mistakes, and if God weighs your good deeds vs. your bad deeds, you hope you will come out ok. Again, we have the problem that if you have only sinned once in your life, you've still broken God's law and are a lawbreaker. God sees our righteousness as "filthy rags". When we think of God's standard of holiness, we don't even come close! (See >> How good is good enough?)

We have all broken God's laws and stand guilty before a holy God.

Just as a human judge must enforce justice and punish evildoers, God, who is completely just, holy and righteous, must also punish sin.

Jesus stated that only a "little flock" of Christians are awarded heavenly life. Heaven is not something easily attained. Jesus' apostles were rewarded with heavenly life, but look what they went through as his followers. They were thrown in prison, beaten, and persecuted constantly thoughout their ministry. They remained faithful until death. The Bible says that "faith without works is dead." So a person must be more than just good to be rewarded life in heaven. There are many people who may lead a good and respectable life, but they do not believe in God. So not all good people go to heaven. God has promised us that a "great crowd" of Christians will be given eternal life here on earth. Those who do go to heaven become co-rulers with Jesus in his heavenly government, which will rule over those on earth. Those who receive their reward in heaven will rule as judges and "kings and priests" with Jesus. I have the hope of living here on earth in total peace and security.

Heb 9:12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.
Heb 9:12 وَلَيْسَ بِدَمِ تُيُوسٍ وَعُجُولٍ، بَلْ بِدَمِ نَفْسِهِ، دَخَلَ مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً إِلَى الأَقْدَاسِ، فَوَجَدَ فِدَاءً أَبَدِيّاً.

i think of all animals will bypass to heaven. notwithstanding they at the instant are not examined in the international, they have genuine souls too like human beings, purely that they have constrained minds, so as that they cant decide good or incorrect, can't think of extreme minds like human beings. yet they are all muslims, bow to Allah & they are going to be resurrected on the day of judgement and all of them will enter heaven with out hisab. as a results of fact human beings are ones who're examined, we are able to the two bypass to heaven or hell.

I know I have sinned and that I am the antonym of, "perfect" but I also know I have been forgiven through the innocent blood of Jesus Christ. Since I believe this, I am promised an eternity in Heaven.

I have heard all those reasons too. I know that I am going to Heaven because I asked Jesus to forgive my sins and come into my heart. He did and He does. Praise God for His promises! See you in Heaven!!

Wow - the exact same crap that I have seen 13,000 times before!

Do you really think that just repeating things endlessly is going to get you somewhere? This is the worst attempt to convert people I have seen in a very, very long time.
