Yes I do! I believe there is a Heaven and a Hell just as the Bible says- that the kingdom of God is heaven- the Bible speaks of Hell as Hell and Lake of Fire and Sheol (in the OT) And Gahena.
It is through Jesus Christ that one can enter the kingdom of God- John 3:3 says "Unless you are born again you cannot see the kingdom of God"
-which means you would go to the alternative- Hell. But God sent Jesus Christ to die on the cross for OUR sins- Because we all have sinned against God (Romans 3)- according to His standards ( His Law) and we all need forgiveness- we all need a Savior- for God is Holy And Just and has NO sin- but he took our sin upon himself and suffered so that those who believe in Him will have eternal life and not only that- but he gives us his Holy Spirit who teaches us all truth- and gives us complete JOY and Peace- we are secure in Christ- no longer do we fear death- death has NO sting on us. Jesus Christ died so that We who believe may LIVE! How wonderful is that?
John 11:25
Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live,
)
John 11:26
and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?"
Romans 1:16
[ The Righteous Shall Live by Faith ] For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

Yes, I truly believe in Heaven. It is a fantastic place. It is the Ultimate Place of Worship on a level our minds cannot comprehend. It is a Real Place with Real things; living and material. It is a Place full of Love and many other wonderfull creations by God. Most of all we will be with Him forever and with people all over the World, praise be to our Heavenly Father in Jesus Name whom we will see with our own eyes.
Yes, because my faith is in the Son of God, not myself because no one can save theirself, it is impossibe. No matter what, you must keep praying to God in Jesus Name that He will never leave you and keep you strong because He is coming to take all the children of God home ( Heaven ) where everything is Perfect because Jesus came to make all things new for you.
God the Father knows everything and why they happen. He is a Loving, Merciful, Powerful and Caring Longsuffering Being ( The Almighty One ). He forces no one to choose Him, because He is Full of Love, His desire is for people to choose Him because He has already chose the Whole World by sending His Only Begotten Son that whoso believe in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life baptize in water. God wants no one to enter Hell because that place was made for Satan and his demon angels, cast out by the LORD from Heaven. If a person don't want to go there, then believe in Jesus Christ who died and raised up by the Father on the third day, then confess with their mouth that Jesus is Lord and Savior and do those things which He said do. Glory be to The Most High God who Lives and cannot die.

I believe in heaven and hell. If I last until the end with my faith that Jesus was resurrected from the dead, ascended into heaven and now sits at the right hand of the Father then I will be forgiven by God and enter into his eternal glory in heaven. If I lose my faith, then hell awaits and God would be perfectly justified in sending me there. I, like everyone else have sinned and have fallen short of the glory of God. Because God is perfect, righteous and holy no one can enter heaven without being forgiven by Jesus Christ. Entry into heaven is by the blood of Jesus and only by the blood of Jesus. He died for the world's sin and God the Father is satisfied with his son's sacrifice on the cross. Therefore, if you repent of your sins and trust Jesus to save you, then you will be forgiven by God and born-again by the spirit of God.

I believe in Heaven, but I am not going because those who go are there to rule God's subjects on a beautiful paradise ( Revelation 5: 9,10; Matthew 5:5; Revelation 21:3,4) Earth. I hope to be one of those subjects.

I do not believe. I accept that there is nothing after death except to rot away in the ground or if you elect cremation, to be burned and have your cremains scattered or kept in an urn.
