Could I get a different reward, like say I just want to be on a beach with my friends and family drinking beer and barbequeing ribs and chicken and sausages watching football and movies,
like in chess I don't have to have pawn promotion to a queen I can have it be a knight.
K Thanks.

not only believing in jesus but you have to do his will everything he asks for in the bible then follow each of his commandments and be good if you know how to. then ye shall receive eternal life the best gift he can offer to live long forever in a time when nothing bad will happend but you have to be different from the world
does things that you want you can do here now on this earth, heaven is the best gift, something you cant imagine

Belief in Jesus doesn't automatically get you into Heaven, but it's a good starting point. If you want the other reward, you'll need to become a follower of Satan. Oops, sorry, I guess I'm a little late on that one, eh?

Yes, it is correct. If you want a different reward like what you say, I believe you have it already and you can have any time you want. I am not good in chess but I want to be with the King forever.

Who knows what heaven has in store for you? No one who is there is going to tell you and you will not get there until judgement day, which won't necessarily be when you die. Maybe heaven gives concession to the likes and dislikes of every individual and that is your reward. being able to do and have that which you did not enough time for on earth. Why not...makes sense to me.

Actually you are incorrect, the reward is to be in the company of the Father and to praise Him. You also get certain perks for witnessing, conversions and leading a cleaner life, crowns, jewels etc. Heaven is just where all this stuff is so you have to commit to get there. Club type stuff, secret passwords, name in the book of life, that kind of stuff.

beleif and practising..... leads to heaven..... yes ofcourse you can choose your reward..... you can promote a pawn to a knight rather than a queen..... intelligence suggests ... which you seem to think you have a lot of.... when faced with choosing.... one would choose a queen only....... if you choose a knight..... then you havent learnt the game well ( you havent understood life) .....the more you are open to new ideas ... the more you will understand life ..... the more inventive you are in chess.....the better you will play....

Earthly thoughts, I'm sure your kidding.
Spiritual people who study know that Heaven is not the final reward. It is God's home, but more, it is the seat of government.
Jesus said so in the model prayer "As in heaven"
He told us to pray for God's Kingdom to come.
Those going to heaven know who they are. The Holy spirit communicates with them while on earth.
Traveling between heaven and earth those going also come back as Kings and priests to work with those resurrected.
It's a lot of work, and they love it because as we witnesses know , working for God brings it's own pleasures and joys.
(You have to be one of us to understand it)

Just believing in ZJesus will not get yo uinto Heaven. He said "Those who call me Lord, Lord, I will say I never knew you. " There are christians out there that believe in Jesus but never accepted him in there hearts, The only way to heaven is through Jesus Christ. God has a plan for everything and if your friends and family are not saved then they will be in Hell. and there are no beaches in hell. So i would ask God what his plans for me are and to show himself to me and walk in the way that God wants you to walk. God Bless

Yes, Maybe your given a choice. I want to go backwards and forwards in time as far as I want and witness everything for myself. Like the Battle of the Alamo, or the death of JEsus, Oh and a CD player

Hell, I believe he existed. But, not in a virginal birth, god-incarnate way to die for our sins. I don't need to go to heaven either, I just want unlimited freedom to go where ever I want, whenever I want to, with whomever wants to go with me to the ends of the universe. Sound like fun?
