Because of God's great tolerance, there are just innumerable kind of religions found established and practiced in the world. It is claimed that every religion or faith teaches believers to be good and is expected to receive rewards in the after life. Supposing this is true, believers of Christian faith will be at an advantage or welcome to receiving such reward. But if what Jesus claims that those believe in him can only be passable to heaven, then anyone cares to want his soul to rest in peace with God, consider the gospel of Jesus. He comes to bring you home to God the Father in heaven. Of course, non-believer has his choice but why don't a right choice be made as taking a good insurance cover.

The thing of it is that people don't think about the fact that God doesn't have to let you live even one second longer. They think they have forever to make the decision to accept Jesus as their personal savior. But the truth is, no matter what your age, you could be dead a second from now. It's such a simple plan of salvation that man tends to think, "But it can't be as simple as this" and so they add to it and complicate the Lord's plan for savation. It really is as simple as the Bible says it is. The fist step is to admit that you need to accept that Jesus Christ died and shed his presious blood for you. That he paid the debt for every sin you have ever committend and will ever commit. And that he rose from the dead meaning that he is no longer dead but alive. Next a person has to do is repent of their sins....meaning, tell God they are sorry for their sins and ask him to help them to not sin any more. Then, tell Jesus ask him to come into your heart and to stay with you forever. And then, the Holy spirit comes and dwells in your heart forever. Many religioins teach that if we are very good and obey the ten commandment we will go to heaven when we die. But that is just not true, the Bible doesn't say that. It says that we simply have to believe in Jesus and the power of the shedding of his presious blood and confess with our mouth that he is LORD. We can't work our way to heaven or buy our way to heaven. It is by the grace of God through the blood of Jesus that we are saved from burning in Hell for all eternity. It is a gift from God and all we have to do is accept that gift. We don't obey so that we'll go to heaven. We obey because we have accepted Jesus Christ and know that we are going to heaven that we do our best to obey.
The Bible was not written to prove that God exists. If I were going to write a book about you I would not write it with the intention of proving that you existed. I would write it based on the fact that you do exist.

There is no book like the Bible. The Bible is truth because it is the inspiration of God which means it is "God breathed". The Bible says in the Gospel of John that "thy word is truth".

there is no other book or religion that gives the way to heaven through Jesus. There is No other book or religion gives freely without earning your passage one way or the other. There is no other book or religion that truly defines God, man, beginning, end without implying you are a god or can become a god

Just because it sounds good doesn't mean it's the truth. There are any number of holy books in the world and all of them claim to be the authoritative handbook for life on this planet... It doesn't look like any of them get it right though.

Peace be upon you.
If you are open type of person, try Al-Quran because it completes Torah of Moses, Psalm of David and Gospel of Jesus. In it you will find all the answers...
Peace.

Getting truth from a bible is like trying to squeeze custard out of a weasel's butt. Same goes for the Qur'an except it would be a camel's butt instead.

The bible is no different than the Iliad or Beowulf.
A book of myths written long ago. Interesting, but not something you need to base your life on.

Any book of mythology (like the bible) will tell you the same thing.
The problem is; you have no proof of anything contained in it.
But keep showing us your ignorance.
