Everyone said yes God loves me
If God loves me - why am I burning in hell? Why will I be sent to rot in hell despite the fact that I am a good person? Is this how he shows love?!

LOL, good point. Hey, at least all the fun people will be there in hell with you, myself included.

The concept of hell you're describing isn't entirely Biblical, but God gives you the choice to love Him back or not. There are consequences for ignoring the One that made you.
The "good person" idea is rarely in line with what God sees as "good." Humans are flawed. We often justify what we see as good by saying that our actions didn't hurt anyone or didn't hurt too many people, or didn't hurt anyone by myself. God doesn't want us to be hurting anyone. He wants us to be loving each other and taking care of one another. To act othewise, even if we think it's "good," is often contrary to what God intended for humanity. The way He wants us to live isn't really that hard, we just can't be as selfish as we often are. You should read up on it. You might be surprised.
However, it isn't for any of us to decide these things, it's up to Him. We don't know how He'll judge you.

If you have asked God to enter your heart, confess to him that you are a sinner, and ask for forgiveness and help to walk in the way of a Christian life, you will not go to Hell. You must listen to him, do what he ask of you, and lead a life as close to God as possible, a true Christian life, then you will receive your salvation from the Lord from which nothing can be taken. You will be a child of God and saved, through faith, to a life in Heaven.

God does love you, that is why he made a way for you to get to heaven, you can't get there by good works, you need the forgiveness of sins that is only offered to you by acknowledging the fact that you are a sinner and in need of Jesus Christ, the savior of all man-kind.

God loves you no matter what happens!! In January one of my close friends died due to complications of the flu, I thought that God was punishing me. God loves us all. Whatever happens to you is for the best in the long run, don't stray from his steady hand leading you towards heaven.

God does love you...hell is beyond what our minds can comprehend, try praying and fasting with prayer, he hears you and knows your pain. He gave us free agency, we make our choices and whether they be good or bad, he loves you the same....Here is one for you to ponder, He knew your name when he was on the cross, knew all your transgressions, and died for you anyway. No love can be more perfect than that. And a twist to a famous quote:
Ask not what He can do for you today, but what you can do for Him.

thats because if you go 2 hell that means u dont love God. and you've heard so many people preach the gosple 2 u and you havent bothered listening. so it means u have not repented from your sins and sin wont be allowed in heaven

God Loves you. You are in your own self-impossed hell.

I am not the judge of where you will be sent.
If you believe yourself to be Hell-bound, do something about it.
