But to enter into His Kingdom we have to do more than just believe? The devils believe also and they tremble.

Here is a passage from the Book of Revelations which proves your point. It is written near the end of the book, and tells the fate of all those who do not believe.
Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Here is another revealing verse from the gospel of John:
"From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him."

You are Correct ! Only those who believe & obey and do the will of My Father will enter Into the kingdom of God...You can believe all day sing amazing grace and carry a Bible and still go to hell. Even demons believe...They don't obey and didn't do the will of God or they wouldn't be the fallen angels.It takes more than believing...Faith,Obedience and doing the will of God....Heaven & Hell are very REAL places and we send ourselves. God Give each one of us Free Will. Gravity Is real and you can't see that...If you jump off of a building whether you believe It or not...You're going down. Eternity Is a long time to be wrong...

devils do tremble more at the thought of Christ than most of the people in y/a. Shame. To enter his Kingdom you have to accept Christ as Lord and Savior, have faith and be faithful, meditate on His word day and night, live by His word, and teach others about Him.

I believe that you are mistaken. We each create our own reality and can change it at will. If you can create a place called hell in your mind then thats how you can visit it. I think God would find your idea of hell a bit amusing and very sad. Sad that you could believe Him capable of creating such a place for Her children.

The question is not clear. "It" stand for what?
In term of doing more than just believe in his kingdom to enter his kingdom agreed.
However, his kingdom destroy hell anyway.

It depends on which religion you currently subscribe to (I say subscribe because religions want money). Several Christian denominations simply believe that believing in Jesus will get you to Heaven. Others believe you have an active faith life and must spread the word of Christ and prove yourself before God.
I don't really believe any of it, myself, but I respect the people who do. Who am I to say how you should live your life?
In short get over yourself and don't think your belief is the only correct one.

Maybe so, but the Flying Spaghetti Monster will smother you in noodles even though you don't believe in him.
True belief is not a choice,
it's a logical response to reality.

Did you realize that you can be cursed by a leprechaun without believing in them? But in order to find the pot of Gold you have to believe in them and go searching for the end of the rainbow.
Amazing how you statement applies to both God and Leprechauns, perhaps they come from the same mythology?

Wow, so you think that god is a Sadist then. If he created us to be the way that we are, and that way of life leads us to eternal hell, then by definition god is a sadist!!! There is no clause in the bible that says that a person that doesn't know of the lord is given another chance. So say a child stranded on a deserted island that somehow survives to adulthood. If they never learn about god, by your account, they will burn in hell for all of eternity. That means that god is a sadist. He surely knew that that child would be put into that situation.
