Are they afraid they will end up there? I am more concerned about Heaven. Where in the Bible does it actually say that Heaven is real. Real not just some fantasy dream la la land of eternity?

Why does every one want to talk about Hell and no one wants to say anything about Heaven?

when you stand before God almighty, then you will be worried for not giving it more thought. God says there is a heaven and a hell. its up to you wether you chose to believe or not.

There are actually quite a few verses in the Bible about Heaven. One of the most famous ones is John 14: 1-4. “Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me. There is more than enough room in my Father’s home.[a] If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you? When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am. And you know the way to where I am going.” People are afraid of hell, because when you go to hell, you burn. I know it sounds cliche. But the burning that I am talking about isn't the kind that burns your flesh. It the kind that burns in your soul. In the Bible it talks about it being the worst that you can even imagine. So why would people want to go there? Right?

References to heaven are all over the place in the Bible. When Jesus prayed he talked to his "Father in heaven" (Matthew 6:9).
Jesus also said that there are many rooms in his father's house and that he was preparing a place for us (John 14:2).
There is also the book of 1 Thessalonians :
"For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever."
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
Also, read Revelation 21 and 22 for a description of heaven.
These are only some verses of many that talk about heaven.

If they think hell is real they better be worried, who would want to spend an eternity where your torture never ends,there is no escape, and you never cease to exist. Why they are worried is a no brainer. Jesus promised his diciples, I go to prepare a place for you that where I am you will be also, and John 3;16 says whosoever believes in him shall have eternal life. I hope someone comes on to tell you exactly where the verses you need are. There are many on Heaven and Hell. It assures that in my fathers house are many mansions,and Psalms 23, I shall dwell in the house of the lord forever etc. I haven't read the bible in a long time but I know what you're looking for is in there, one verse said seek and ye shall find--so keep seeking.

It's not worry. It's doubt that Hell exists. Thus far, the only proof that it exists is that someone said so. In a court of law, that kind of so-called proof would be thrown out. The same goes for heaven. Remember that priests themselves didn't believe in Hell when, for decades they were molesting children.

I think perhaps you're not listening closely. We doubt Hell not because we fear it but because we deeply resent the implication that, absent threat, we are incapable of behaving decently. We don't discuss the concept of Heaven because we also feel deep resentment at this blatant attempt to bribe us to think and act a certain way. That's a dehumanizing and degrading way to treat human beings, and it's entirely unnecessary. We're quite capable of realizing the benefit of good behavior without being threatened or bribed!

uh neither exist, the places heaven and hell were cr5eated as a method of sayin, do what we say, and you will be happy in heaven, and if you act against what they say, then you will burn eternaly. Sounds pretty convincing for simple minded people thousands of years ago. when we die we dont go anywhere mentaly. afterlife is a man made idea and thought. so im not worried about ****

Heaven will be here on earth a Paradise we human beings can't even imagine because of the sin we live with.
A Utopia and I look so forward to being there!
