People who know me generally believe I am not more moral or less moral than others. In another word, I am NOT morally different from most people.
btw, I'm a Christian, a new Christian though, and I know God makes the final judgement on my character, but how about people's opinions on me, also important I think.

Opinions are very important to almost everybody. But that doesn't change the fact of where you are going! If you have asked Christ into your heart, you're going to Heaven no matter what. I try to live a life pleasing to Christ, but so that others will have good opinions of me too. Yes, you will go to heaven after you die....if you've asked Him into your life!

Actually, if you're a Christian, God doesn't judge you based on the way you live. Based on the way we live, we all deserve to go to hell. God is holy and his standard is perfect. If we've ever lied, stolen, coveted, etc., we deserve eternal condemnation. The good news is that Jesus came into the world to die to pay the penalty for the sins of all who trust in him. It is on this basis alone that we can be forgiven and reconciled to God. If we have turned to God and put our faith in him it means that our hearts have been changed so that we begin to live in ways that reflect God's character. However, the way we live is not the basis for our justification before God. Rather, the way we live is the result of our having been justified and reconciled to him.

God judges your heart to see if you've given your heart to Jesus so that He can change you into a new creation. The only possible way any of us get to heaven is not based on our character, but on God's love for us when He sent His Son Jesus to die on the cross to forgive us our sins. Our sins separate us from God and the penalty is death. But Jesus paid our penalty for us. But, in order to receive this gift of life, we must accept it thru faith in Jesus and make Him our Lord and Master of our life. Do you have a relationship with Jesus? Opinions are important, but do not save us. Only Jesus saves. He is the Truth, The Light and The Way. Be careful to use the Word of God when tempted in any way. Pray for strength and keep your eyes on Jesus as He is always looking down at us!

really? do you honestly believe that God makes his judgement based on your character?
if that were true, you would definantly go to hell. The only way to heaven is thru Christ Jesus

If you trust in GOD, and gave your heart to him completely, do his commandments, above all trials and life's tests, I will meet you in the Heavens in front of our Saviour! GOD bless you. When God Forgave you, your past sins were forgotten!

No one can Judge you!! God's Judgment is true and Righteous, Just try to Follow JESUS and try to resemble him more and more Each Day !! But do it from the Heart, not for the public admiration!

ok...
yes everyone will go to either heaven or hell when they die. Its a simple as if they believe Jesus Christ is there Lord and Savior and trust in Him with all their heart and know that He is the only way to be in heaven.
If you dont trust in Jesus as your Savior (which many dont) you will suffer ETERNAL (forever) damnation in hell.

There are only two ways to go. It's not heaven or hell but either six feet underground or inside a jar.

If you accept Jesus as your Saviour (that is, you accept that He made payment in full for your sins), then you're on your way to heaven.
