Well, your best bet is to read the Ten commandments. The ones I read, say nothing about going to church, just a day of rest. Even for your ***. As to will he take you to heaven? Only god knows.

You just invalidated yourself in your question. You cannot follow the 10 commandments if you don't pray to God. (See commandments 1-4).
Following the Law or breaking it has nothing to do with going to Heaven. What gets you to Heaven is a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, your Lord and Savior.

You will not be considered obeying the commandments of God if you are not praying to God and goin g to your church for gatherings. It will caused more problem going to heaven for eternal life

If you are an honest, caring person then I think you do not have much to worry about. If you have let god , whoever your god may be, into your heart then you are considered a good christian. Going to church in my eyes has noreverence on that. You can pray to god in your mind, laying in bed at night, you do not have to go to a house of worship to worship. I am not a super religious person, but I am a good person, and god will not turn me away for that.

Praying to GOd and going to the church are some ways on showing your love towards God. Its a must.

according to most christians, the only thing god cares about it that you accept him (the right version of him).
So if a man rapes and kills a buddhist girl, then turns to christianity before being executed, he'll end up in heaven, while she, of course, goes to hell. At least she won't have to see him.
What a nice religion, isn't it?

All 10? one of them is remember the Sabbath, it includes not doing anything other then going to church, spending time with your family, and praying.
And i see you must have missed that one.

Jesus Christ said, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."
The only way to heaven is through Jesus.

No, you'll die like any other human being.
You have to have an immortal element inside you that preserves your life. When you're born, you don't have one. When you're born again, you do.
(Hint: you can't really be successful obeying God without being born again.)

How can you Honor God if you don't talk to him, or how can your hear what he has to say to you if you don't go to church, you can not be Good enough by just following the commandments..
We can not justify ourselves by what others do..
