The Bible states "Jesus is the way, the truth and the life, nobody gets to the Father without Him". So according to the Bible, no, you cannot enter heaven without him, and yes, the only alternative is hell. God only forgives those who have genuine repentance, and is willing to submit under Jesus' authority and willing to accept that He is the way, the truth and the life. If people understood God's justice, they would understand that no sin can go unpunished.
When you genuinely repent (not just be sorry you're caught out..), you may ask God to forgive you - and the work which Christ did on the cross will take away your sin.
A good children's book explaining this is "The chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe" by CS Lewis.

The bible has many scriptures Like John 3:16 and 1 John 3:16 that make it clear, unless you believe in Jesus and accept Him then you will never see Heaven. If you don't believe and confess with your mouth, then you will go to hell...

If you don't believe in God that means you do not care about Heaven or your life after death - so why do you want to get there? Yeah, according to our faith, you go to Hell.
Yes, God IS a forgiver, but not in all cases!!!! If he were just so great in every circumstances, a murderer could be in Heaven without a confession before death..

Yes, if you do not accept Jesus Christ as your savior you cannot get into heaven,, He said "I AM the way, and the truth, and the life." Yes, you will spend eternity in hell, as you call it, if you do not accept him as your savior.

According to Christians, yes, then no.
I don't think this is right though, because then murderers who happened to believe in Jesus as their savior could make into heaven, and random people who have never heard of him, but are still good people, would go to hell.
If there even is a heaven, I think getting in would be based on character.

Which one of you is asking this question? You gotta have more than one personality. Double don'ts. Believing in Jesus as your savior, is kind of like having Him as your lawyer. Do you want to waive the right? Hell is seperation from God forever. God is the source of goodness. Do you wish to live in suffering forever. Ask yourself these questions then ask God....Jesus, what to do.

Well, since there is no evidence that either heaven or hell exist, I don't see your point. The only people who believe in heaven or hell are the people who believe they are going to heaven.

Therei is no other way to the father but through the Son Jesus is the Only way. Jews get special consideration all else take their chances at Judgement and it is bases on your true intentions.
