[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Religious folks: is there a "heaven"?  And do you get in only if you're saved?  Yes or no?  There's a lot of wiggling and waffling on this in the above posts. I'm just trying to understand. [/quote]

Heaven is being with God for all eternity.  You can go to Heaven if you want to.  You don’t have to be perfect.  You are already saved and given God’s grace by the sacrifice of His Son.  You don’t have to do anything to earn it.  (You can’t earn it, anyway; it’s too great a gift.)  If you want to reject Heaven, then you have that choice.  We all have free will.

This makes no sense. If everyone is automatically saved, then why would Christians want to save people? Where does salvation by faith or faith and works come in? [/quote]

I think it’s kind of like how everyone who married a prince is a princess, but through “faith and works” you can be Meghan Markle or Kate Middleton. [/quote]

So in this case does being a princess mean being in purgatory and “faith and works” means being in heaven?

I mean, I don’t understand how you can argue that Christianity—in any denomination—dictates that one can reject Jesus and have the same afterlife as someone who accepts him.[/quote]

Do you think that Meghan has the same experience of being a princess as Kate?  [/quote]
