First we would have to make believe that there is a heaven and hell, I would choose hell, no question. I'm sure it would be a lot more fun, and all my friends will be there!

Most certainly, without a doubt. God has never forced a person to go to Heaven, nor will He ever do such. And neither has he ever sent a person to Hell. The choice is up to us. We can choose to allow the Lord Jesus Christ to come into our heart, by asking for his forgiveness for our sins, and be cleansed in his precious blood; or we can refuse to do so, and spend eternity in Hell when we die. The choice which we make is entirely up to us. It is just as Joshua said in Josh. 24:15: "And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." The choice was totally up to Joshua. He could either choose to serve the Lord God Almighty, and go to Heaven; or he could choose to serve the idol gods of the Amorites, and end up in Hell. The choose was totally up to him. And the choice is also totally up each one of us, to make our personal decision. Romans 10:13 also tells us: "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." What will we be saved from? Hell! Whosoever means me, you, and every other human being.

We don't really get to choose. But not for the reasons you think. Hell, as used in the Bible is simply the word describing the common grave of mankind. Everyone who dies goes to hell, because hell is death. Even Jesus is spoken of as having gone to hell when he died.

And as far as going to heaven, Revelation tells us twice that a limited number (144,000) will go to heaven. They are specifically chosen by God. That doesn't mean they are guaranteed a spot in heaven, since if their life course is not faithful, they are replaced. So in a sense, they do get to choose...

Of course!

You are the master of your own fate. The creator of your own reality. Why not choose something that speaks to you? If that is either Heaven or Hell, so be it. But with a little creative thought and motivation, can you not come up with something more suitable to your innate being?

BEST TO ASK THE SCRIPTURES

Rom.14:9-12; Philip.2:5,9-12; 2Cor,5:10; Matt.12:36; [ Angels Jude 6; 1Cor.6:12,3 ];

Matt.10:15 Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of
Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.

Heb.9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment.

Acts.24:15 And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that
there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.

John 5:26 For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son
to have life in himself; John 5:27 And hath given him authority to execute
judgment also, because he is the Son of man. John 5:28 Marvel not at this:
for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear
his voice, John 5:29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the
resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection
of damnation.

Dan.12:2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake,
some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt

Yes. We also make it. There is no other heaven or hell than the one which each of us earns by the way we live, think, and treat other human beings and animals. What you do to others you do to yourself. What goes round, comes round.

well even though that is the end result, you are really choosing to obey God or not. You recieve forgivness through Jesus and enter into God's kingdom and begin starting to obey him and learn what his will is..
The end result is Heaven or Hell..
The time is short and one had better think well in these troubled times.
