Nobody goes to heaven because s/he is a good person - but because of John 3:16; 'For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.'

I know that I have tried my darnedest to be the best person I can be at any moment. I believe that God is all merciful, I have made some big time mistakes in my life, so in my quest to achieve an immortal spiritual life with God I have asked forgiveness and made amends in the best way I could. Will I make it ? God only knows, but I won't give up trying.

I believe I'm a good person, but I also believe that when I die my spirit will return to the Goddess for a time to rest & recharge before being reborn into my next life.

What if I wish my body were cremated ? Would it be considered as my last sin and I would never have a chance to go to heaven? Though I have tried to do my best to live according to the ten God's Commandements?

No, there is none good. we all fall short and deserve to be punished. No one needed to teach my 2 year old the word Mine, when it came to his toys he knew it on his own, why? because human nature is self-centered and selfish. I believe I will go to heaven, because my debt has been paid by the only one who could offer a clean payment. That would be Jesus. and Only Jesus.. If I refuse to accept his gift that is up to me, but then I can not blame him

No
You must confess that Jesus is the Son of God, your Lord and your Savior and repent of your sins and you shall be saved.
God will hear your heart and know if you're sincere.
