It's actually simple, we just make it complicated. Jesus Christ came to earth in a physical body & died for our sins so that we could have eternal life w/Him...we just need to accept Him as Lord and Savior of our life, believing that He died for us. It's a free gift and our personal choice. John 14:6 in your bible tells us that Jesus says, "No one comes to the Father (God) except through me.." by believing in Him...simple. It's a heart matter...not an analytical one. ok?

well here is what i believe:
There is more to christianity than going to church and following the bible. My bro's ex's family was very heavy in their beliefs so they got by bro and i into it. she got me to go to this bible study after school my junior year. the way that they bescribed it was that it was a very narrow doorway and that when you die you either enter that door way or you don't meening not everyone makes it. everyday...well almost everyday i think to my self if i died right now, would i be happy with the way i left earth? everytime i have a problem i try to pray and talk to god...some people may think that when you pray that no one is listening but someone is. god lives is you that is why he sees everything. when you hear that honest voice in the back of your head telling you no don't do that, he is trying to lead you in the right direction. some people dont listen they tune that little yet powerful voice out and try to make a dicision on what they think is best (for some people that is money, greed, power, sex). basicly the bible is the hand book on how to live the best life possable, and as long as you listen to that honest voice, i dont think you'll have any trouble. and remember no one is perfect, that is what make you, you.

I'm sure some one from the Billy Graham Evangelical Association would give you the help you need.
I tried to get a link, but didn't succeed. Go to the web and ask for the Billy Graham Association. You will get one to one help.

I believe it's our responsability to try to create Heaven here, on Earth, through good actions and compassion.
I don't know if there's an afterlife or not. I only know for sure we have this life to live, and we should make the best out of it.

There is only one way to heaven and that is through Jesus Christ. You have to Believe that he died on the cross for our sins and raised 3 days later. You must admit that you are a sinner and ask for forgiveness.

It has been said that heaven is not a place but a state of well-being. you can have anger misery and pain which is hell and heaven which is happiness and joy. This answer depends on you interpretation of heaven. There is sacrifice for another life, there is works for the lord, and there is confession and forgiveness from the lord. there may be more.

You have to be born again. This only happens to few. Those who are elected are chosen by Christ with God's permission of course.
Most people frankly would prefer earthly life.
As far as my beliefs, I have no church or churches forcing any particular belief. My purpose is to adhere to the Bible.

Love God with all of your heart and soul, and strive to do His will in everything you do. Love your neighbor as yourself. Help the poor and the less fortunate and downtrodden, because as you do this of them, as also you treat Him. Settle disputes among yourselves honestly and forthrightly without always running to man's courts. Do not make rash promises or oaths swearing on God, heaven, etc. Let your yes be yes and your no be no. Set aside the Sabbath day as a day of rest, reflection, meditation and prayer. Do not be envious of your neighbor or covet what he/she has. Thank God for what you do have and live within your means. Do not unnecessarily go into debt, and if you yourself personally lend money privately to a friend, do not charge them interest, and be forgiving of them. Forgive others as you wish to be forgiven by God. Be a good citizen and obey the duly constituted secular authorities, because their authority ultimately comes from God. Pay your taxes and other similar obligations. "Give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's". Live your life as an imitator of God, stripping away your old former sinful nature, and live your life as a quiet and silent reproach to those who are amoral. Live a good and virtuous life, but do not be haughty or feel superior to those whose faith and belief is weaker, but rather pray for them and honestly offer them help spiritually.
All of these things are specifically mentioned in various places in the Bible, specifically the New Testament. We as Christians are commanded to do all of these things (and more) in our walk with God on our way to heaven.

You ask for directions to a mythical place. There are no associations with my beliefs. I'm agnostic.
