God said in the Bible "Their should be no other Gods before me." If you are worshiping anyone else, then are you ready to go to hell with satain? I know I don't want to be with him, he's very twisted.

Yep, if the Bible say it believe it. It doesn't just apply to Gods, it applies to anything that we put before God in our lives. We are supposed to lay everything down and take up our cross and follow him.

First, God Did Not Write The Bible. So There Is No Way There Is Not A Way To Prove That. It Was Written By People.
Second, I'm Sure The Quaran Talks About A Similar Doctrine. There Is No Possible Way You Could Worship The Muslim God, and The Christian God at The Same Time....But What If They Are One In The Same?? Simply, I Think Being A Good Person, And Living By Good Morals Shall Be Good Enough. Why Worry About Thereafter, And Live A Good, Moral Life Here Now. Religion Aside

There's no way to determine that answer. The only source of information we have on everything relating to your question are strictly authoritarian source. Authoritarian sources are usually thought of as "experts" (but not always, or it depends on who you ask (E.G. A member of the Yamamomo tribe in South America might tell you a witch doctor is a good source of information whereas an American will probably say otherwise)). The question you should ask yourself. Do I believe the "authority" that is telling me this? Personally, I don't believe the book. There is evidence -not from an authoritative source- but empirical evidence that shows that the Bible and many other religious texts from other religions are written by men and for the purposes of men.
"God gave us the gift of reason, should we not use it?"

Of course not! God is not a jealous adolescent. God is bigger than that, and so is Jesus.
But whatever you worship should be useful to you and worthy of your worship. In my mind, any God that requires a blood sacrifice isn't worthy of worship, but condemnation. Just think of how we look at the old Aztec religion that required blood sacrifice. We think they were terribly misguided. Well, same goes for a God that would require his son to be executed for the benefit of the the rest of us.
That kind of human parent would be imprisoned for murder. No less should be true for God.

There is only one God and thats the one you accept. All religions are only trying to obtain a following, bit like a football club, the more the better.
Hell is an invention of religion, in christianity it was not known before the 13th century or so.
You decide what path you like to follow, as long you keep respect for the law of mankind you be ok and sure will not arrive in hell.

Hi Angel,
I once was lost,
but now am found,
was blind,
but now I see.
36 years ago the Lord Jesus Christ revealed Himself to me as the One who died on a cross for my sins, and I was born again. I experienced what Jesus meant when He said: "Truly, truly I tell you, whoever hears My word, and believes in the One who sent Me (God the Father), has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of Death into Life." (John 5:24)
The Apostle Paul spoke of this when he said "For He has rescued us out of the Dominion of Darkness (Satan's Kingdom) and transferred us into the Kingdom of His Beloved Son." (Colossians 1:13)
This being born again is a real experience. God gives you the gift of eternal life now, in this present time, and changes your heart to love and trust God, giving you an assurance that you are His, and that He died for YOU.
Ask Him to make it real to you. Start reading the Gospels in the New Testament. He will teach you, if you trust Him.

I hope not.. but i dont believe in hell.
Don't worry - there is no hell. It was just an idea someone came up with centuries ago to keep people in line... and have the concept of 'moral's.
We dont need this irrational fear now - etiquette, and emotional intelligence are what should be taught now.

The question is kind of backward. Basically, we are all destined for destruction, like being on a slowly sinking ocean liner. If we choose not to get into the lifeboat, it is our decision and we must pay the consequences.
God has provided a free escape from hell. Whether or not one takes advantage of the opportunity is up to them personally.
