You have a free will and can do anything you wish provided you are within the laws of the land or you don't get caught.
The thing about sin is the Law is different. There is no escape. When you pass over, you will be accountable for every thought word and deed. This is not my teaching. It is the teaching of a man that represented God. Rebelling and not believing does not change the fact that there is just as much possibility that Heaven and hell do exist. I for one have proof that it does. So you may continue to be a bad girl or whatever and see what happens. If you are right, then you will just be gone. If you are wrong, then you will not be happy to view your record when an old man tried to warn you to start walking straight on a path that you can smile and be proud of.
There are no perfect people. We all sin. But we are here to master ourself and eliminate those issues we brought with us, like anger and greed and selfishness, lieing, cheating stealing, Etc. The religious text are a guide. If you do not use what serves you then you will not benefit from those who had good intention to help mankind. Most did I think.
I wish you well with your life and maybe someday you will change your mind. When I was a child , I thought as a child, when I was and adult, I put away childish thoughts.

Yes. I feel badly for you. Its sad to know that you don't beleive. But, at the same time I am in no posission to pass final judgment. Everyone believes a little differently than others. But I'll pray that you will understand one day and believe.
Though...I do wonder how you can't believe in Heaven or Hell and believe in God...

Sure I care but the only thing I can do for you is give you the gospel that will take you to heaven. It does not take away from the fact that there is a heaven and a hell just because you don't believe it. Do you really wish to take a chance that there is life after death? What if by chance there is a heaven and hell. The Lord Jesus Christ died for your sins, He was buried and took your sins away and He rose again the third day for your justification. He did it all for you and all you have to do is believe and trust in that. If you reject what He done for you then when you die hell will be waiting for you. 1 Corinthians 15: 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 1 Corinthians 15: 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: Romans 4: 25 Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.

Hell and heaven are real places no matter what you believe. Heaven is offered to everyone but if you do not choose it, that is your choice.
The Bile is true, it is time tested and known to be reliable. However, you can choose to not to believe in it. You need the guide of the Holy Spirit to open that holy text to you. You cannot rely on your own understanding with the Bible.
Even Satan believes in God, but does he follow Him...NO.
Yes, I care. I would rather you to accept Jesus Christ in your heart to be your Lord and Savior. But I respect the free will, so does God. : )

you can't have god without heaven and hell. if we did we wouldn't know the difference between good and evil.that's the essence of temptation.a spiritual war has been going on since adam and eve fell from gods' grace by eating of the tree of knowledge. next a war broke out in heaven when lucifer wanted to overpower god. god kicked him out to a lower heaven. eventually, god kick lucifer and his followers onto the earth. lucifer became satan and his followers became demons. he wasn't real bad when he tempted job but later he got worse along with hiw demons.

Nope, I only feel sorry for you.
Just out of curiosity though, why do you believe in God if none of the religious texts are credible in your opinion?

Yes, I care.
You obviously don't believe in the various religious "Gods", but you say you believe in A God. Would you share your definition or description of the God you choose to believe in?

How can you believe in God but not Heaven or Hell? Read the Bible. You need to care because your life depends on it, And I care because I don't want to see you go to Hell. It is the worst place imagineable!!!! It is completely dark, there's worm that crawl in you and eat you forever, and a fire burns you for all eternity. All you can hear is screaming and there is no one to talk to, FOREVER!!!!!!!! I hope you don't go there! You need to get saved, now!
