Either way, if Scott Peterson does not believe in heaven or hell [which I don't know if he does, I was making a hypothetical question], it's unfair for people to say he will go to one place or the other when he doesn't believe the same they do. |
Yeah, that is a misconception you had.
According to the Bible, if you are indeed a Christian, you will go to Heaven, regardless of what you did or did not do. However, you are still encouraged to lead a good and virtuous life as you will be judged for any evil you did, still (and also you are judged for the good). However, there are many people who think they are Christian who aren't or who claim to be so but aren't. Those will indeed go to hell.
The ones who really are Christians go to Heaven.
