Jesus died for all people's sins, but only those who accept His payment for sin on their behalf will go to heaven. We can only be saved by grace--by accepting God's unconditional gift of salvation to us if we are willing to turn away from sin and turn to Him. But those people who reject God's terms and insist on trying to "earn" salvation by "good works" will not go to heaven, because there is absolutely no way that any of us is good enough--which is why we are saved by God's grace and not by what we do. (Ephesians 2:8-9; 1 John 1:9)
Any denomination which insists that all people will go to heaven because Jesus died for everyone ignores the fact that only those who accept His gift will be saved. He will not force any of us to follow Him, and those who are not willing to follow Him will not be forced into heaven. If we will not turn away from our sin and turn to Christ, we will not be saved. It's that simple.

Isaiah 65:17-25 "For here I am creating new heavens and a new earth;..And I will be joyful in Jerusalem and exult in my PEOPLE.. and they will certainly build houses and have occupancy; and they will certainly plant vineyards and eat their fruitage. They will not build and someone else have occupancy; they will not plant and someone else do the eating.
For like the days of a tree will the days of my PEOPLE be; and the work of their own hands my CHOSEN ONES will use to the full.They will not toil for nothing, nor will they bring to BIRTH for disturbance; because they are the OFFSPRING made up of the BLESSED ONES of Jehovah, and their DESCENDANTS with them..The wolf and the lamb themselves will feed as one, and the lion will eat straw just like the bull..They will do NO harm nor cause any ruin in all my holy mountain," YHWH/Jehovah has said.

The wrong demonination because all of us aren't going to heaven. #1 you have to except Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior. Confess that you are a sinner and to forgive you of your sins. Because the only way to get to Heaven is if you are born again. And Thats in the New Testament. Read it .

the certainty is whoever accepts Jesus as their Savior and confesses with their mouth it truly is genuine. "John 3:sixteen For God so enjoyed the international he gave his basically begotten son, that whosoever believes in him shall no longer parish yet have eternal existence." maximum of your checklist above believe this and could go. After that each instruct their own issues which divide the church. We concentration on the small stuff too plenty, while Jesus saves us in the process his dying on the go. it truly is the certainty and a number of different won't agree however the bible says it is so. it truly is all approximately Jesus and understanding that he died for us and took our sins. the basics of a number of the above is Jesus' dying on the go. it truly is the after teachings that confuse many. it truly is a shame you are able to no longer basically be Christian, yet i'm. i think in Jesus and what he did for us. the better distracts from this and divides the church homes. Which devil likes, because of the fact unified we would be unbelievably solid. advantages b2u constantly and ever.

ANYONE who follows the plan of salvation will make it into Heaven.
Anyone wo does not follow that plan, no matter how good they are, will not make it.

You will be saved if you accepted it and trust it. Trust Him. If you trust Him you will say "ok, I'll use your guidelines but make sure i'll be saved."
