The only way is by accepting Christ as savior, He paid for all of your sin on the cross. Ask for forgiveness for your sin, ask Jesus to come into your heart. You can read John 3:16-17.
If you know you are a sinnner, ask forgiveness, and ask Christ into your life, you will be given eternal life (life in heaven after death). You will also have the Holy Spirit to help you here and now. The Holy spirit helps to guide us and intercedes for us with God.

Many people will shove the concept of Heaven, Jesus, forgiveness etc.. but at their last second they somehow wish otherwise that there was such a hope. You speak as if you are so sure but you have no proof that there is no God. You will not admit it, but in yourself you cannot deny the wide gapping hole you have which you try to fill with everything you've got. Debts, alcohol, failed marriages, divorces, abused children, abusive parents, enemies, court cases, bitterness and resentment against anything and everything. It is there and there is no denying it.
There are countless cases of people being clinically dead and suddenly being revived after some minutes and even hours. They all account for the same two things: either they saw blinding light - or standing at the edge of an exploding volcanic lake. You choose where you go. Either way it never ends.

The ONLY real way to guarantee a spot in heaven is to reserve it at www.reserveaspotinheaven.com . The site isn't up yet but I've been told it will be within the week. E-mail them if your curious, but be sure nothing else will work, trust me on that.

No, being good does not guarantee a place in heaven. The ONLY way to reserve a spot in heaven is through forgiveness from Jesus. By faith, repentance and HIS (Jesus) GRACE one receives this guarantee.
In one that is saved, good works are a result of their faith. Faith without works is dead. The difference between one who does good works and is saved and one who does good works and is not saved is the forgiveness of Christ Jesus

No, it doesn't guarantee anything. You don't get to Heaven on your works. Only if you believe that Jesus died for you and rose again. You can't ever be good enough to deserve a place in heaven, you can only get there by believing and Gods mercy. This is one place you can't buy your way into!!

You can't reserve a spot. Do good always and under every circumstance. To do otherwise is to show that the truth was never really understood, and that there are other loves present besides loving God only.

Words like "good" and "bad" are inappropriate and should be removed from the language(s). As for guaranteeing a place in heaven, forget it. There ain't no such place and - even if there were - they're not taking reservations.

Agreed. Being good has nothing to do with getting into Heaven. The Bible says that " ... not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace." 2 Timothy 1:9,10 Also, you have to accept Christ into your life; "no man can come unto me, except the Father which has sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day." John 6:44

optimum Christians have self concept in faith over works. meaning that a advise egocentric Christian can bypass to heaven, yet a sturdy regulation-abiding Atheist won't. it particularly is like an unique club the area easily the club participants get in. in assessment, Judaism helps a Jew to be an Agnostic or possibly an Atheist as long as they lead a sturdy existence; they have faith that each and every individual may be judged on the income of their strikes. additionally, in accordance to Judaism a guy or woman is only no longer able to be forgiven for something they did till they have worked to make up for their mistake.
