Without trying to insult you, OP, you not yet a Christian. You are just like many who attend church but are still not saved. So sad!

Going by your confession that you are a Christian mainly because your were born into a Christian home, no, you are not yet a Christian but a church goer.

It is also obvious that you believe in Christ. That is great but mere believe and church attendance don't give salvation. You need to confess what you believe with your own mouth for you to be saved or to be a Christian (see Rom 10:9&10).

What you believe she which you confess is also very important. You must believe confess that Jesus is the son of God, that he came to die for your sins, that he actually died, that he rose from the death and through his sacrifice you have eternal life (John 3:16, 36)

You can only claim salvation by being born into a Christian home if only you are an underage (mostly less than 4 years) but since you are old enough to post on social media, you are old enough to take decision for yourself.

You need to give your life to Christ for you to be saved and be safe. See my profile for prayer is salvation.

Let no one decieve you, anyone without Christ cannot make heaven

People are born into different family, religion, tribe and culture. I see some families with both Christians and Muslim in it.

My question now is that people who are born into a family of Islam, Hindu, Judaism, paganism and whatever, does it mean they can't make heaven.

Because I know I am a Christian basically because I was born into a Christian home, and I find it difficult to convert to any other religion no matter the amount of preaching, same goes to those born into Islam Hindu and the rest.

Please I need scholars in the house for more clarification

Christianity is not a religion, in fact, the name was coined by the Pagans of Antioq, which means follower of Christ.

Long after Antioch, it has become a religion

Since Christ is the way to heaven....
Your own is to find that way ....
Once you find that way...
Show the same way to other people
If they agree...fine
If they don't agree,..prove to them why you are so sure that way(Christ) will lead to heaven....

If they ask you ...are you saying only the christians will make heaven......tell them you don't know.. but one thing you know that is sure is that as long as you accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and savior..you will make heaven....

If there is any other way apart from Christ ..I don't know..but one thing I know is you will get to your destination (heaven) with him(Christ)
According to his words which are true and highly believed to be so

Not christians but believers. not everyone that goes to church is a christian. God works with the heart. Don't be surprise when you see many pastors and christains burning in hell on judgement day.

You don't get the point.

What if you were born into a Hindu family or a Muslim family. Does it mean you can't make heaven. Understand the question first!!!!
Re: Is Heaven Made For Christians Only? by Nobody: 1:06pm On Sep 11, 2022
Even you, your being a Christian by birth doesn't qualify you for heaven. It being a Christian by personal conviction that will make you enter heaven.

So, you need to accept Jesus as your personal lord and savior before you can be called a Christian.

Yes, until you accept Jesus Christ as your lord and personal saviour, you will not make heaven.

Muslims who believe in 77 virgins when they blow themselves as suicide bombers will NEVER EVER make heaven. Quote me when you get to heaven's gate 2.


What if you were born into a Muslim family. Just be more logical. What about other religion in the world.

People hardly chose religion to follow rather they are born into the religion they follow.

Nobody is going to heaven because they are good or nice people. Only those washed in the blood of Jesus can be in heaven.
To be washed in the blood one have to recognize that he or she is a sinner and accept Jesus christ as their saviour.

So only a Christian will go to heaven, only a true Christian.

Heaven is not made for Christians but believers. You can be a Christian and yet not believe in Jesus Christ.

Once you are a believer, you will make heaven. But heaven is not the final resting place for believers. It is a temporary place to stay before the new world is created. A world where one is ageless and not bound by time. A place for eternal rest and koinonia.

The new Jerusalem. You don't want to miss it.

Sorry sir
You can't be a Christian because you were born into a ? Christian home. Christianity is a personal decision that is made based on the understanding of what it entails.
Please know that about 90% of people you see in churches are not Christians.
You need to understand Christianity for you to choose to be a Christian
Thank you sir

You're NOT "a Christian basically because you're born into a Christian home".
You only become a Christian when you are born again.
Many so-called Christians won't make it to heaven.
Jesus said "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. Whoever believes and is baptized shall be saved."
Even a pastor's child must hear and believe and behave the Gospel to have the hope of heaven.
Without Jesus, it is Hell Fire straight.

The home you were born into doesn't matter.
What matters is that you should find out about your existence on earth
Ask questions with sincerity
Study all the religion and find out the truth

Our level of reasoning is a big problem.

Now settle down and answer this question...

What if you were actually born in let say a village in India and both you and the entire village practice Hindu, will you be saying this same thing? If someone from Islam or Christianity comes to you and start telling you Jesus is the way.

How possible is it that you in the whole village will convert to Christianity. When you know you have been practicing Hindu from birth.

Let's try to reason out of the box sometimes.

Indeed, the religion in the sight of Allah is Islam. And those who were given the Scripture did not differ except after knowledge had come to them - out of jealous animosity between themselves. And whoever disbelieves in the verses of Allah, then indeed, Allah is swift in [taking] account.

Heaven is for the people who follow Jesus up the straight and narrow which a few are following.

Many Christians are rushing through the broad way which leads to hell cool
