Most people would like to believe that they will spend eternity with Christ,but the passage to heaven is very narrow and few will enter.I really don't think anyone knows the true answer to this question until they die.

I chose to accept the free gift of God. I will have eternal life through Jesus Christ in Heaven. My sins have been forgiven. This does not mean I will never make a mistake or say something I regret. I am flesh and it is a constant battle not to sin. Most days I am strong but some days I am weak. I will ask for forgiveness and He will forgive me.
I hope to see you there.

Every sound mind will like to end up for eternity in heaven.
"Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the Prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
"Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven; but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven."
[The Bible, Mathew 5:17-20]
Jesus pbuh came to fulfill the laws of the previous messengers, to teach the message of Oneness of God and that One God should be worshipped
"Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord."
[The Bible, Mark 12:29]
To believe in the Trinity goes against all of the teachings of Jesus, as well as the Bible. This is because the Trinity is a man-made doctrine that was drawn up several hundred years after Jesus. In this time period different interpretations of the Bible were causing serious debates among Christians. The various interpretations were, undoubtedly, due to human perversion of the original scriptures, poor preservation, and/or shoddy translations. One of the main things being questioned was the nature of God and Jesus. Was Jesus actually God, the son of God, or just a messenger? The Council of Nicea was formed in an attempt to settle this dispute, and the Nicea Creed (the Trinitarian doctrine) was subsequently hammered out.
I would invite all of us to do is to do research for ourselves and learn from reliable sources what is the origin of modern Christianity and what should be our perspective on true belief in general. We can only achieve this with open minds and hearts.
So, may the Great God of the Universe guide us all with His perfect Guidance to all truth and grant us Paradise as our last and final dwelling. ameen.

When someone asks a question such as this I think of a Christian, German concentration camp guard at Auschwitz in 1944. He has a loving family who he takes to church every Sunday without fail. On this day, he is leading a family of Jews to their deaths in the gas chamber. Here's where things get confusing for me. According to the bible, all the German guard must do is accept Jesus as his savior and the son of god and ask for forgiveness of this terrible sin of multiple murders of innocent victims, and he will dwell in heaven forever when he dies after living a long and fruitful life. The innocent Jewish family, however, because they don't believe just as the German does, after having their lives cut miserably short and not allowed to bring up children have, grandchildren and enjoy the other niceties of life like the German will enjoy, will burn in hell for eternity. That's just sick man.

"For the wages of sin is death..."--meaning spiritual death.
Definition of spiritual death--When someone sins or willfully acts against God's WILL, his/her spirit is seperated from God until he/she repents, and is at-one with God again.
"But the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."-- The word Atonement can also be looked at as at-one-ment which means to be at one with God again. This is the second part to the scripture because only through the merits of the Atonement of Jesus Christ can we overcome sin (spiritual death). We are able to repent because of Jesus Christ, and when we repent we are perfected from sin and can only receive ETERNAL LIFE through Him.

For a bit, I will live, and enjoy every aspect of life I can, and after, I will die, and I will continue to exist in other parts of the earth, and as the earth dies, I will continue to exist in the universe, as part of a great whole.

So I, being the vile sinner that I am, according to the good book, reject Christ and the message of salvation through him alone, will end up in hell.
I guess I'm going to hell.
Then again, if hell has other people like me in it, we'll likely have a great time there! :)

I've answered it by choosing Christ.
