No, salvation is not a reward for anything you do on earth. It is a gift from God and nothing you can work for, but only receive from Him by the power of the Holy Spirit. Please see in scripture Ephesians 2:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of GOD, not of works, lest anyone should boast. (Eph. 2:9 also).
In many religious beliefs, eternal life in heaven is viewed as a reward granted to individuals who lead a virtuous life or follow certain guidelines. It is typically seen as a form of divine grace or gift rather than something that can be earned through actions alone.
Not at all. The Bible - God's Word- is very clear that heaven is the place where God dwells and as such can only be inhabited by holy and perfect beings. Humans are born sinners and so, even if one lives a life of absolute goodness ( as best he can) he will still have to admit there were times where he did not do his best or made a mistake or did wrong. At any rate the Bible tells us: Romans 6:23 The wages of sin is death but the gidft of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Going to heaven is a gift given by God not something earned. Nobody ever earned there way into heaven. John 14:6 I am the way the truth an dthe life, no man cometh unto the Father but by me. John 3:16 lays it out pretty clearly: For God so loved the World that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish but have eternal life. God knows that we cannot get ti His heaven on our own that is why He provided us the way. This is why Jesus Christ cam to Earth 2000 years ago and died on that cross in Jerusalem. He wanted to pay the sin penalty for us so we could all go to heaven and be with Him. You must just trust and believe on Jesus Christ! In Acts 16:30,31 a Roman Centurion asked the Apostle Paul Sirs, what must i do to be saved? and Paul answered thus: "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved..."
Christians believe that by accepting Jesus and his teachings, they will gain forgiveness of their sins, eternal life in heaven, a relationship with God, guidance for living a moral and fulfilling life, and hope for the future.
Eternal life in the presence of God in heaven is often referred to as "eternal bliss" or "paradise." It represents the ultimate reward and fulfillment for believers in many religious traditions.
In many religious beliefs, heaven is considered a spiritual realm created by a higher power, such as God or a supreme being. It is described as a place of eternal peace, happiness, and reward for those who have lived a virtuous life.
Performing works of mercy helps us grow in love, compassion, and selflessness, which are traits essential for eternal life in communion with God. By caring for others and showing mercy, we imitate Christ's example and align ourselves with His teachings, increasing our readiness for the kingdom of heaven.
Eternal life is a concept that is often associated with religious beliefs and does not have a proven scientific basis. The security of eternal life would depend on one's faith in the relevant religious teachings or beliefs. From a scientific perspective, achieving eternal life is not currently possible.
If you are a born-again-Christian, the reward is life with Jesus!! And eternal happiness!
Eternal, full life
The body sleeps. The soul is in heaven or hell waiting for the resurrection. The souls in heaven will have eternal life. The souls in hell have eternal death.
You can only die on earth, and neither in heaven nor hell, because in hell, you have to endure eternal fire, while in heaven, eternal life.
Hope.
This is sort of a broad question which means that a broad answer can be given. Basically, if you are familiar with the Holy Bible, you would understand that Heaven is described as an eternal reward given to you by God for your belief in Him, right judgment, and positive moral practices during your time on Earth. With that said, you would go to Heaven to live the promised eternal life of peace and joy. Hopefully that answers the question.
true
AnswerEcclesiastes 9:5 says, "For the living know that they shall die; but the dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten". In other words, there will be no conciousness or reward after death. No one really has eternal life.
People who are dead... unless u believe in Heaven and God, then there is eternal life in Christ.
yes their is and if you except him you will have eternal life in heaven

Judaism is a religion of life, not of afterlife. We follow the teachings of the Torah to improve our lives, and not for eternal reward.
