How bad am I allowed to be before I am refused into Heaven?

Answer 1

once you reject Christ as Lord and Savior (continually), Heaven isn't your destination

Answer 2

The bible says "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it." implying that most will not get to heaven. That being said, why would you care how bad you could be? Maybe instead think about how good you could possibly be while alive. Aim for the highest standard not the lowest. Also, please consider the possibility that there is no heaven or hell and you could just be good for the sake of your own concience, not because of threat of eternal damnation. Remember that when Satan was cast into the lake of fire, a third of all the angels in heaven went with him. So if heaven is so great, why did a third of its population choose to leave?

Answer 3

Why do you want to find that out?? Your living NOW! Your actions now are how you are judged in this life!

If you believe in Heaven (Bible type Heaven) and you really want to go there, live a good and peaceful, fulfilling life. You can't be entirely sure there is a heaven but if there is, living a good life now, will guarantee you'll get in.

Answer 4

How do you know that you are going to Heaven? My personal hope is to live forever on earth. Why do you want to be bad? Practicing good works for me.

Answer 5

It is not about being perfect. It IS about being forgiven. If you follow the teachings of the new testament, you can be granted grace that covers a multitude of sins; however, that is no excuse to sin more. Read the book of Acts and both of the letters to the Corinthians

Answer 6

You are not a Christian so why be concerned? Whoever gave you your information has you deceived. Take up your cross and follow Jesus if you want to be a disciple. Religion wants to get man into heaven. God wants to get heaven into man.

Answer 7

It's not that you have the right to enter and it's taken away...it's the other way around...you have no right to enter, and God gives you salvation by His Grace and Mercy. For all...ALL, even Mother Theresa, have fallen short of the Glory of God. We cannot earn it, we have to be ready to receive it. When you are willing to acknowledge that you have sinned, and repent...REPENT of your sins, you accept Jesus Christ as your personal Savior and Friend...get to know Him, read the book...the Holy Bible (entire book, not just selected texts that prove one or other church denomination). You will stop living in sins and will start obeying God's commands. Sin becomes alien to you. I have been there...I have done that...I am saved.

Answer 8

All have sinned and fall short. But at the same time all humans must live moral live. God said that he is going to judge all of mankind for their sins. And Christ said " I have not come to destroy the law, but to fulfill the law."
Otherwise there would be no need for God's judgement. There would be no need for hell, and the lake of fire.

Answer 9

I DONT KNOW, THE WORD SAYS THAT THE ONLY SIN THAT ONE CANNOT GET FORGIVENESS FROM IS IF ONE BLASPHEMES THE HOLY GHOST, SO I GUESS IF THAT TAKES PLACE IN SOME ONES LIFE THEN THAT IS A GUARANTEE THAT YOU WANT GO TO HEAVEN. BESIDES THAT ANYTHING ELSE GODS GRACE IS SUFFICIENT AND HE'LL FORGIVE YOU IF YOU ASK AND WALK IN HIS WAYS AS BEST AS YOU KNOW HOW.

Answer 10

mankind cannot contribute anything to his salvation. any time someone thinks he can contribute, he is in essence working for his salvation, which is clearly against the bible’s statements. even faith itself is a gift from God. salvation is a free gift from God , and since it is a gift, there isn'tanyhing you can do to earn it. all you have to do is take the gift.

Answer 11

the good news is there is no heaven so don't sweat it.... the bad news is there is prison so how bad do I have to be before they put me in prison is a good sane question..
