If you have NEVER prayed to him, no. You cannot enter the Kingdom unless you ask for forgiveness through the blood of Jesus Christ. With the mouth confession is made.

Of course, you silly goose. You cannot go to Heaven by just attending church or else many of us will go to Hell. Take a hint from my religion, whihc is Marin. Sometimes when I am down on my luck or short on cash, I can attend a shrine and "order" a meal in any quantity I choose. This symbolizes the panentheist belief that those who go to Heaven will have to "pay their way" once they are IN HEAVEN. I know the shrines are called "fast-food restaurants," but that is because of the rligious nature, not the rate of cooking. I would rather wait 20 minutes for a steak to be prepared, hence the allegory of the ant and the grasshopper. I know you will go to Heaven because I can see the essence of your soul radiating from your heart. I can sense the maturity you deplict and the const of this essence, which was paid by Jesus Christ through hhis blood. Pardon my scattering, but my religion originated from Christianity, and for yourself as a Christian, you have the greatest advantage, and that is to attend any congregation of any faith you can imagine. The purpose of Christianity is to "go ye, and preach the Gospel." do not worry about church and start worrying about faith.

Of course you will go to heaven, since there is no where else to go. God loves us all unconditionally, and the word unconditional means just that...without any condition what-so-ever....period!!!
God doesn't care what you do here on earth, or what you believe or don't believe. God never judges anyone for anything...ever!!!
God sees us for what we truly are...and he wouldn't judge us any more than we would judge an actor on the stage for behaving like the character he/she is playing. Even if the actor forgets that he is not that character, God does not forget it. And God never gets the actor confused with the character.

Of course you will. There are many Christians all over the world where they could not go to the church to worship. They gathered at home with their families and studied and prayed together to God. That also happened duirng the early days of the Christian when they were persecuted and hunted. Nowadays there are places in the world where communism and other religions persecuted the Christians, and they have to do the same thing.
But if you are a real Chrsitian, and the opportunity is there, it is unreasonable not to want to join with fellow Christians to worship God together.
But of course there is an exception to everything. Sometimes we see or meet Christians whose characters are abhoring, so we feel repulsed into joining them, and decided to worship by ourselves with our family and close friends at hom.
Remember that it is not the church who saves us, but Jesus Christ. And He said, that where two or three gather in His name, He will be present in His Spirit. So just look at the situation and see how best to adapt yourself to the circumstances. God bless you.

If you truly believe that Jesus is your Lord and Savior, that he died for your sins, its the least you can do to take one hour out of one day of the week to say thanks.
And for prayer, prayer is, among other things, to give thanks for all God has given you (your life, everything you have) and to ask for things you need (I'm sure there are a few, at least).
And though one can theoretically get to heaven without these things, why risk it when you have the tools to be sure?

Since when does a general opinion on Yahoo Answers guarantee your entrance into heaven??

yes you will still go to the astral plain. But you may have to incarnate again onto this hell we call Terra Earth to learn more and advance spiritually. You never die. You just shed soul carriers.

If I really believe that there is chocolate in the fridge, I will want to eat it.
If you really believe in Jesus, you will want to know Him, and please him.
My question to you is, do you really believe in Him if you are so apathetic towards His existence?
No insult or hurt intended - its just the best way I can explain it...

Yes, going to church is not salvation.

No, because heaven is a made-up place and does not exist. god does not exist either, so believing in him is totally pointless.
