To get to Heaven all you have to do is accept Jesus as your Lord and and Savior and confess your sins and believe that he died for you and rose again
If you really ARE saved then your'll life WILL CHANGE. Ever since I got saved I've served Jesus out of love and thankfullness. Allah is not personal to you. He puts a barrier between himself and u. How can anyone have a relationship like that?

James wrote that faith without works is worthless. Too many Christians seem to forget that.
I believe that God is just and merciful, and will judge all people, believers and unbelievers, in a fair way. Are your beliefs different from that?
Edit: You are mistaken about Allah not being personal. I was taught this lie when I used to be Christian, too. Muslims devote time each day, focused time, to communication directly with God. There is no need for sacrifice or an intercessor. I call this a personal relationship, and I've never felt closer to God than since I've become Muslim.

Judaism teaches that there is one god, yet isn't too certain about an afterlife. Islam teaches that there is one god - i'm no longer too certain on the specifics of its beliefs on the challenge of the afterlife, yet they do believe that there is one. The Druze believe that there is one god. they have a heaven and a hell of their faith, yet you have to be fairly solid/evil to bypass there. in many cases you're merely re-incarnated. Zoroastrianism you've already reported. The Sikhs believe in a unmarried god. like the Druze they think in reincarnation, yet that "salvation" (which finally ends up the painful cycle of demise and rebirth) will be reached via religious devotion. The Hindus worship many gods, yet some evaluate them to be all manifestations of diverse aspects of one god (Krishna). back, they have the completed reincarnation element, with Nirvana being reached via religious devotion. The Bahai faith is monotheistic and has perception in an afterlife. Confucianism style of sees heaven and god as being a similar element. an section with a personality.

It is not really workiing your way in. If you follow the teachings you are going to heaven. But if you start sinning and committing actions not allowed you are reducing your points.
For example, you start your class with an A+ and you continue to do your homework and acing tests you maintain your grade. However, when you stop doing your homework and flunking tests, your grade goes down. Need to bring it back up to pass the class.

It's utterly impossible for sinful humans to earn or work their own way into Heaven.

Yes we know. Because that is the true life for people who worship the TRUE Religion - ISLAM. And we also know, and may be they also knows, that they have NO HOPE to be in Heaven.

mmm..ever been a Muslim? You sound young.
even as a Christian, I have to disagree with you. Even Jesus said "Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord' will (make it to heaven), but only those who do my Father's will."
The Bible is more complex than what your preachers let on...maybe start there.

If God rewards people based solely on their belief in him or lack thereof instead of considering their actions towards others in life, then God is a selfish, egotistical, sadistic bastard that should be worshiped by no one.
I would rather spend eternity in hell than spend one moment in the presence of the evil deity you worship.

If Christians think they will go to Heaven without an honest trial of their deeds, then I'm sorry, but I think they have been misled, but I don't think all Christians believe that.
It's the same God, the same message...you have to earn your final abode, whether it is in Heaven or Hell.
Salam!

Isn't it funny that all religions Christianity, Islamic, hundue.
Believe that they are going to heaven and their is a torturerous god who is going to punish them.
When you go to heaven and you hate people of other faiths do you still hate them?
Why would God who hates violence. Genesis 6:6
let violent people go to heaven? To take violence from the earth and polute the heavens with it.
If you can't get along on this planet, why would he want you to go to another one?
What if two different kinds of muslims goes to heaven.
Will one try to learn how to build a bomb to blow the other one up?
