I feel you need to be looking at things in another way. Think about the fact that no one will be going to heaven. What if there really is no God? Think about it.
A lot of people will tell you that only a set number of people will be going the heaven. I don't know where it said it in the bible, But the number is only around 100,000 people. There has been billions and billions of people die over the years and there are over 6 billion people alive right at this minute. Millions born every year and millions die every year. How many years do we have proof that people have been alive? I think it is 100,000 years or so.. Meaning that out of the millions that die each year the chances are one in a million per year that you would be picked. With 6 billion alive right now and100K as the set number that is 1 chance in over 600 million. Wining the Power Ball Lottery is 1 in 324 million. Keep in mind some have already been picked.
Tell them that they are confused in your church an get out of it before your whole life is wasted and start living without fear. You will no nothing after your death because if you take a few minutes to understand how the brain works you will see that when it stops working you you no longer think. Without thinking you are not a person. And do you really think that animals don't have a sole like the religious peoples say? What is the diff?

Your in the hands of a just God. He and he only knows your heart, because the Bible says he ponders the heart. he knows if you are sincere,. Proverbs 15:3 The eyes of the Lord are in every place, beholding the evil and the good. I don't know you...but God does. Ephesians 4:26,27 Paul wrote and said; Be ye angry and sin not. Let not the sun go down upon your wrath: Niether give place unto the devil. You sound somewhat confused. Paul also said: Flee also youthful lust, but follow righteousness and faith, charity, peace with them that call upon the Lord out of a pure heart. II Timothy 2:19 The Lord knoweth them that are his, And , let every one that nameth the name of Jesus depart from iniquity.

Sweetie, like I always say, I know I'm going to heaven, because I spent my time in Hell!!! I had a problem child when she was in her teens, a run away, etc. Very rebellious!!! Thought we loved her older sister more than her, not! Now she is one of my best friends as I am hers. She's now 22 and has really grown up, probably faster than she should have and has 3 beautiful boys. She calls me everyday, and tells me how much she loves me. And when she speaks of how her past teen years were makes her cry because of how she treated me.

It is the latest craze that Christians go around saying that they are already saved and naming a specific date of their salvation. I hope it goes away soon.
However, we are not judged and enter into heaven or hell until we die. While we are in this life, hellish influences are always there.
Just keep on reading the Bible and repenting and trying to put away sin and you'll be fine.

Rest assured, if you were one of the anointed, your attitude wouldn't be what it is. The annointed know almost from birth if they are heaven destined.
It is clearly laid out in the bible who is, and who is not going to heaven to work and live with God.
You have spent far too much time listening to lies from a preacher who simply doesn't know what he is talking about.
We meet them at the door many times and they just don't get it. Taught that way by others who know no more than they do.
God selected 144,000 from all ages and people. He detirmined who goes, and who remains here on a cleansed earth.....forever.

To go back to spiritual world, the kingdom of God, your heart must be completely pure and all your material desires must be finished. All of your desires must be centered aroud pleasing the Lord. If you have even one tiny material desire to enjoy independently from the Lord, you will take birth again in this material world. That is the information given by great saintly teachers.
You can overcome anger and everything else which is disturbing you by developing your love for the Lord. A very easy way to develop love for the Lord is to chant His holy names with love and devotion every day. In Vedas it is especially recommended for this age to chant these names:
Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare
Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare
Just try. I chant the every day, and love for the Lord is gradually awakening in my heart.

That is because we are neither saints nor sinners...we all fall somewhere between. A concept of an afterlife not limited by the concepts of heaven or hell would make more sense...we all arrive in spirit realms exactly where we have fitted our spirit to occupy.

listen. the way we know we are going to heaven is when we recieve christ in oour hearts and we are saved. the bible said we all sin and fall short of the glory of god. all u have to do is ask for forgivness and try not to do it again. and there is 2 ways to control ur anger. 1 ask urself what would jesus do and ask god to take those desires out of ur heart. im 14 years old and i used to curse a lot but i prayed that god would let me stop. and now i dont curse.if u want to call me my number is 954 687 6325. ill pray for u. peace.

you are the same as just about every other teenager to walk the earth
maybe realising that what you are doing is normal due to hormones .. and it will pass .. will make it easier on you
but by all means try to control your temper .. you may be hurting your parents and they will love you unconditionally ... but that doesn't make it right
if it really is a big problem .. perhaps think about some anger management though
love to you .. and stay positive xx

No one is perfect. "For all have sinned", remember?
Look, God won't ever give up on you. There was one time...I thought God had given up on me. I strayed SO far...I was heavily into drugs (acid, coke, crank, pot, alcohol...anything I could get my hands on)...and my lifestyle...well. Let's just say it's a BLESSING that I didn't contract some sort of disease, and I didn't OD on anything. I was fortunate.
So one night, during that time, I was feeling really down...and I decided for the first time in almost eight years to pray. I told God He'd probably given up on me by then. And this voice came, it wasn't male or female but seemed to be both, and it said: "If I had given up on you, you'd be dead by now." And all of my mistakes flashed in front of my eyes... I realized that God had spoken to me, and He wasn't kidding!
If after all that time, God still had love and forgiveness for me, He can forgive you. Consider yourself a work in progress. You'll never be perfect...but if you let God mold you, you might be able to come close.
