If you don't go to Heaven then will you go to Hell?

no there is nothing else i do not believe there is a hell i believe we are in hell wether it be good or bad its all in how we perceive it and what you make of your life.im not a christian and im a catholic with some of my own beliefs.hopefully if people do bad in the they ask to be forgiven and go to heaven if not i personally belive there sole and spirit go no where which is where it should go.so whatever lyou do when you know somehting isnt right ask for forgiveness because the the lord is a forgiving person.

Heaven and Hell are fake. It's impossible for them to exist.
Tell me, how could a mother be happy in Heaven when the child she loves more than anything is burning in Hell?

That is correct. That is what the Bible says.
It's up or down....nowhere else to go!
But!
I don't belive this but the Roman Catholics have this place (I think they made it up in the dark ages to get money from rich sinners) called purgatory where you burn for a certain amount of time before you can go to heaven.
So, then who would go to Hell for eternity?
I'm not sure how "their" system works but somehow you do penance in this place and then can get in, as it were.
The Bible makes no reference to this, however. So I think they made it up so we always have a last resort and they could collect money from sinners.
I also do not consider Catholics as Christian because of this and a few other things , like praying to Mary....what for, I ask. Pray to God!
And how can st Christopher be a saint and then years later the "church" un-saints him for some reason!!!!!
I don't get it!

There is Life and death. Heaven is for those who accept life. Death is the result of hell, the only other alternative.
There is no Biblical justification for the idea of purgatory or anything else.

There is Heaven and there is hell, you end up at one of these two places.

The scripture says. " It is appointed unto a man once to die and after that the Judgement." Heaven or Hell that's all there is.
But no one has to go to Hell because Jesus paid the price for all sin in full, and all we have to do is repent of our sins and accept his free gift.

I was taught by my grandmother about purgatory. A place inbetween heaven and hell for the souls who were not ready for heaven. Almost I suppose like a waiting room scenerio. We had a novena for the souls were you prayed each night for the souls and this was to prepare them for God (to remove their sins).

i believe that there is only heaven and hell.i don't believe in purgatory.heaven is where,those who have accepted jesus into their hearts,will dwell with him for eternity.hell is where,if people don't accept jesus,and they want to live their life apart from him,will go after they die.i'm not preaching at anybody here.i'm not trying to put anybody on the defensive.i'm simply stating what i believe.god created everybody.and he loves everyone.and jesus died for everyone.we need forgiveness for our sins,before we can have a relationship with god.we all do a lot of things,that are not right,and that seperates us from god.but through jesus,we can find forgiveness,and have a relationship with god,because jesus died for our sins.
heaven,i hear,is supposed to be a wonderful,beautiful place.full of love,joy,and beauty.i don't know why anybody,wouldn't want to be in a place like that.i've heard that hell is a frightening,lonely,dark and terrifying place.this world is scary as it is.and there's enough suffering in this world.why would anyone want to go to a place,that's full of even more suffering?
i hope this answers your question,in a respectful manner.i really wasn't trying to offend anyone.

Yes your correct. There is a Heaven to gain and a hell to shun.
There is a way which seems right unto a man but in the end it ends in death.
It is by faith alone, in Jesus Christ for salvation, that we are assured of a place in Heaven.
