Jews don't even believe they'll go to heaven because they don't believe in an afterlife. To them its they live they die and there. They're just here still waiting for a mighty man to come and create the world kingdom they expect will root from them.
Besides be them Jews or any other religion just like the Jew that crusifed Jesus. To go to heaven they need to accept and believe Jesus Christ as their God also.
John 14:6
" I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."

The real answer is very simple. Christians believe that the only way to everlasting life with God (or Heaven) is through belief and acceptance of the savior of the world. Christians believe that the savior was and is Jesus Christ. Although there are messianic Jews, most people of the Jewish faith do not believe that Jesus of Nazareth is the savior. They do not believe that the savior has come yet. They are still waiting on the savior. That is why they only use the first part of the bible. The new testament is all about Jesus as the Christ.

Your premise is incorrect. I am a Christian, and I don't think Jews won't go to heaven.
The reason is the vail discussed in 2 Cor 3:14-16.
If there were no vail, they would not be responsible for the sin of rejecting the messiah, but the fact that the vail is upon their minds preserves them from judgment.
That is why God has gathered them in unbelief back into the land and is working in their midst.
Here's the verse:
But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ.
15 But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart.
16 Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away.
KJV

All of us have the chance to go to heaven. I am a Mormon, which I consider to be Christian just because other religions don't consider us to be, and if you believe in God and accept that Jesus Christ came into this world to save us from our sins and if you really ask for forgiveness, then anyone can go to heaven.

Because Christians believe that only people who have accepted Christ as their saviour will go to heaven. Since Jews do not believe that Christ is anything more than a man, they will not, according to Christian doctrine, go to heaven.
I'm not sure I'd want to be in an exclusionary heaven anyway...

oh we think that ANYBODY can go to heaven but you just need to be born of the spirit (John3:3) In order to be born again you need to confess with your mouth that Jesus is lord and believe in your heart that god raised him from the dead ans you will be saved (Romans 10:9-10)
This truly what we believe and also salvation was actually meant for the Jews first then the Gentile (everyone else) So we believe heaven was at first yours and now ours

It's the blanket of belief that all Christians are hating slimeballs who go against all of Jesus's teachings, that's wrong. All people will go to heaven if they lead good lives. Or if they didn't lead the best life and were truly sorry for it.
truckjump815- Jesus was Jewish. He was adding on to the Old Testament, not going around creating a new religion.

because they rejected the corner stone of God's Kingdom and so therefore they can't get in for the corner stone is not real to them and the Kingdom is not real to them without the corner stone. But hey this could be any one and not just Jews because God will call many to him in the Jewish communities. Read the Bible and you will see it is anyone but it is hard for the Jews because they were the chosen ones

In the bible (Book of John, Chapter 3, verse 16) it says that god gave his only son and anyone who dosnt believe in him will perish. (that isnt a direct quote, but its close)
So seeing as that Jews dont believe in Jesus, they perish with all the other religions.
I think its crap. God loves everyone! Well, at least that is what the chrisians say. They contradict themselves.
