Who goes to Heaven and who goes to Hell?

Well many think of Heaven and Hell as places. They aren’t, technically. What they really are may be strange, but it’s gonna make sense. They are states of being. To explain and put it simply Heaven is a state of Honor in God’s presence, and Hell is the state of shame in God’s presence. What does this mean? Well it means that everyone will be in the prescence of but in a differnt way. Depending on how you acted during life. For example, if you acted like a immoral, disrespectful person then life in God’s prescence will feel shitty. If you were good (whatever that may be) then you will feel awesome in God’s prescence. Now this all depends on how you choose to use your free will. However one cannot really be sure what heaven or hell are like because not many have died and came back to tell what they saw. If they did they would only know about the state they went to. Now you may ask, where the hell does this all come from. Well the answer is Matt Miller mostly, but also the thought process of the past, as well as the modern east. In the West (Europe) the culture revolved around shame and honor, in todays world you can see the same culture in Japan. In this culture you are judged upon the honor you bring to yourself, but mostly your family, or group. With the advent of Jesus’ teachings as well as the movement toward a more individualistic society this culture essentially died in the west. What it was replaced with was a culture of self-development and individual self-importance or “being special”. This culture focuses on how the individual seems to be by oneself, and not in a group. This shift in thought may have caused a shift in perception on certain things (namely Heaven and Hell). Going back to the whole point of this. One must look at Heaven and Hell as states of being, and not places as we know them. Then they become one and just a way to describe the state your in after life. You must be asking yourself ‘Well then with all this said, Who goes where?’ The answer is up to God, and you because you have the Free Will and can choose any path tou want. That’s the beauty of life, you can do anything you want, yet nothing at all if you want.
