The Bible tells us that all bad people will go to hell. Which seems quite fare as people like Hitler, Pol pot, Idi Amin, and Stalin deserve to be punished for what they have done wrong.
“It is appointed for a man once to die and then the Judgement.”
But the real question is, are you good enough to go to heaven. Here is a little test to see if you are good person.
Have you ever told a Lie? Even one lie makes you a liar.
Have you ever stolen anything (No mater what the value)? If you steal something you are a thief.
Have you ever used Gods name in vain? When you use the Lords name to express disgust you disrespect his name, the name of him that gave you life. This called Blasphemy
Have you ever looked at someone with lust? Jesus said if you look at someone with lust you committee adultery with them in your heart and God Judges the intentions of the heart and not just our actions.
If you have answered yes to these questions, by your own admission you are a Liar, a thief, a Blasphemer, and an adulterer at heart. These are just four of the Ten Commandments and you will have to face a good and just God on judgment day. God is so good and just that he will not just punish murderers and rapists but he will also punish liars, thieves and adulterers.
So if you face God on Judgment day would you be found innocent or guilty? Will you go to heaven or hell? Remember that God said ‘all liars shall have there part in the lake of fire.” And “No thief, no adulterer will inherit the kingdom of God’
Hell is a fearful place where no man should want to go the bible describes it as.
● “Shame and everlasting contempt” (Daniel 12:2)
● “Everlasting punishment” (Matthew 25:46)
● “Weeping and gnashing of teeth” (Matthew 24:51)
● “Fire unquenchable” (Luke 3:17)
● “Indignation and wrath, tribulation and anguish” (Romans 2:8,9)
● “Everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord” (2 Thessalonians 1:9)
● “Eternal fire . . . the blackness of darkness for ever” (Jude 7,13)
But God has given us a way so as we would not have to go to hell.
Imagine you are in a court room and you are guilty of a very serious crime. You know you are guilty the Judge knows you are guilty. So you stand before the judge and beg for mercy, but the judge says my hands are tied the law demands that you be punished for what you have done. You have to pay a one million dollar fine or spend the rest of your life in jail. You can’t afford to pay the fine so the bailiff starts dragging you towards your cell. But then a man you don’t even know walks into the court room and says to the Judge I will pay this persons fine, and hands over a check for one million dollars. The Judge turns to you and says your fine has been paid in full you are free to go.
How do you think you would feel towards this man, I’d say you would be extremely grateful, you would want to know how you can repay this person.
This is what God has done for us. He sent his only son Jesus Christ, God in human flesh to suffer and die on the cross, rose from the dead on the third day defeating death. He was the perfect Sinless sacrifice he payed the price for our sins so that we would not have to go to hell. You broke the law and our fine has been paid in full.
So what do you have to do to receive this forgiveness? The Bible tells us that we must repent, that is turn from sin and put our trust in Jesus. Don’t just believe in him have faith that he did this because of his love for us.
Today, with all your heart—turn away from sin, and surrender your life to Jesus Christ. Please don’t put it off till later. You may die today and then it will be too late. You may not yet have all the answers to your questions, but better to put on the parachute first and then ask questions, then to pass through the door unprepared, grasping for the parachute when it’s too late. You can pray something like this—"Dear God, today I turn from all my sins (name them), and I put my trust in Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. Please forgive me, and grant me your gift of everlasting life. Amen." There is nothing magic about these words—it is the attitude of your heart that God cares about.
God bless

God has forgiven us. He is merciful if we confess with our mouths and believe in our hearts that Jesus is Lord.
He knows that we make mistakes.
Not everybody will get into heaven, only if they truly believe in him.
Read John Bevere's "Preparing for Eternity", or buy the DVD series of it It's fantastic and should provide heaps of insight.
Some people will be "rejected." That's just the hard facts of it.
That's why we need to tell people about Jesus.

Which god? Only Christians and Muslims believe in judgement day. Even Jews don't. And considering they're the original religion of YHVH, theirs really is the only view of YHVH that really matters where YHVH is concerned.
Get your own god and stop making a monster out of YHVH.
(And no, I'm not a Jew, I'm an atheist)

shane: God is in the saving business, not the burning in "hell" business. Jesus came into the world to save it - not condemn it. By the time He is finished with His Plan for all of us humans, we all will be saved. Jesus died for ALL of us (our sins too) and we abide with Him in a relationship of UNconditional LOVE called grace. This is what makes Christianity so GREAT ! In the END - we ALL will WIN !!! (That's the GOOD NEWS !)

Judgement day? Ma'am, there is no judgement day. There is no sin. Please throw that book away and just love the real God. Not the God that is depicted in any religious book designed to control the masses through fear.

uncertain why they reject him: (2 Thessalonians one million:7-9) yet, to YOU who go through tribulation, relief alongside with us on the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven along with his effectual angels 8 in a flaming fireplace, as he brings vengeance upon people who do not understand God and people who do not obey the best information approximately our Lord Jesus. 9 those very ones will undergo the judicial punishment of eternal destruction from in the previous the Lord and from the attention of his potential,

As long as you really believe that Jesus is the son of God and God is real then you don't have to worry about it.
Though if someone doesn't believe they will go to hell.
