God Created Heaven. He is the owner of that property, per say. Can you enter your neighbors house without his permission? mostly likely, Not. Unless you want to break into your neighbors home, you will not be able to go into their home.
Same goes with Heaven. If you don't believe in God. Then how do you expect to enter His place without knowing Him! do you plan to break in as a thief?
That is why.
Not just the beautiful people can enter Heaven, you too can enter, only if you believe in the Almighty. So as God can welcome you in His home.

It's not our job to judge period. No one can change how you feel in your heart. Here's what I know and hopefully you won't be offended. John 3:16 say For God So Loved The World, That He Gave His Only Begotten So, So That Whosoever Believieth In Him Shall Not Perish, But Have Everlasting Life. I believe in that.

How can someone go someplace they don't believe? The concept of heaven and the concept of God go hand in hand.
I'm not saying there is a God or one has to believe. But if you don't believe God exists, or that heaven exists, how can you expect to go there? Or be put off when people say you can't go?

To me, God is the giver of heaven, so when you are close to him you are in heaven.
Imagine a series of concentric circles, each one connected to the next. The circle closest to the center preserves the most stability, and the further out the circles go, the longer the distance of rotation they must encompass. So to be closer to the center (God) is to be closer to the point of central control and is less susceptible to friction.

"People" don't necessarily say that, but Christians do.
Christians say it because that's what the Bible teaches.
The words they speak then are not their own words, but the teachings of God as recorded in Scripture.
So, why get upset at the messenger?
Your real problem is apparently with God and His word, not with Christians.

Perhaps to that individual without the threat there is no reason to believe in their god(s). Maybe in their perception it's their job to conform you to their beliefs by fear. To a non-believer of that religion the threat is empty and meaningless. The person making the threat is a pathetic fool using emotions rather than rational.

Would you have the question answered with a lie? If I truly believe that without God's intervention, a person will be subject to eternity without God, it would be unfathomable to tell them everything is okay and allow them to go along their merry way in ignorance.

This is what God says about this, I am just the messanger who believes and fully accepts the true word of God.
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
Born again- is a spiritual re-birth obtained by accepting Jesus as your personal Savior and repenting of your sins, inviting Jesus into your heart and life, and giving up your old sinful lifestyle for the righteous lifestyle of Jesus.
God also says this...
John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
This is the wrath of God for those who do not accept Jesus as their personal Savior...
Revelation 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
Once again... this is the true word of God, and I am just sharing His word with you in answering your posted question.
You have to be a truly spritually lost person to not be able to find your way to Jesus when He has shined His light upon you so you can find your way out of your darkness of sin. It is a very dark and lonely life for those who refuse the free gift of Salvation that God and Jesus has to offer you , and it''s totally free!

Why do you believe in heaven and want to go there if you don't believe in God?
