The answer to this depends first on whether there is a hell, and then on what you believe.
If there is no hell, then the odds are perfect that you will not go to hell. Atheists, most Jews, and followers of all the Eastern religions do not believe there is a hell.
Most Protestants believe that you are assured of going to heaven if you believe in Jesus. Once again, the odds of not going to hell are perfect just as long as you manage to continue to believe, without the least niggling doubt.
The Catholic Church teaches that two things will keep you from going to hell: being a Catholic and not dying in a state of mortal sin. For Catholics, lesser sins, known as venial sins only result in a period in purgatory, after which the soul goes to heaven. Sins can be forgiven by a priest, through confession and penance. To improve your odds, you can purchase an item which prevents you from dying in a state of mortal sin at any time the item is actually being worn.
How can you visit a place if it doesn't exist? You might as well say "what are the chances of an atheist going to Mordor or the planet Vulcan".
From the point of view of most evangelical Christians, the answer most would give is yes. If I say that I am most likely going to heaven, I am not SURE that I am going to heaven. I am also likely to think that there is something more I should do in order to make my chances of heaven greater. All of this leads to the basic teaching that salvation (heaven) is assured to those who are 'born again', and only the 'born again' are going to heaven. So expressing any doubt indicates that I am not 'born again', and therefore I am not going to heaven.

Sin will keep man from going to heaven.
Chances are extremely good!!
How can we say who will and will not go to heaven.
no. nothing can stop you from going to heaven if you have faith in Jesus. But it is still a sin harming your own body.
His ascension into Heaven. This was 40 days after His resurrection from the dead.
What would happen if you did not please the gods?* First of all, there is only one true God, and that is the Father in heaven. Second, if one does not please God, then chances are they may not find a place for themselves in the Holy City. But remember: everybody living has a chance of going to heaven.
This question has been debated by theologians, philosophers, believers, and non-believers for many centuries! Your answer depends on your religious upbringing, your personal beliefs now, and which "camp" you subscribe to throughout your life. If I do not believe in "heaven", I might act in ways not very "angelic". But if I believe "heaven" exists right here on Earth, depending on how I view life, I can make my life fairly 'heavenly' through how I act and treat others. Equally, I can make my own life and others' lives complete 'hell', too. On the other hand, if we believe heaven exists outside of us on some other plane we cannot see, we could spend our lives fearing we'll never be allowed "in" or worried God will reject us. In the end, no one can tell us our "chances" of going to heaven-- it isn't a horse race where there's a 3:1 chance of "winning" or some set "odds" for or against us.
that depends if your going to the devil or heaven. If you are going to heaven your spirit will never die ,you will be in paradise. If your going to the devil your spirit will die because he will throw your spirit in to the lake of fire. now believe in god to live in paradise in heaven!
In the Christian faith, the one obstacle that stops you from going to heaven is if you never believed and accepted Jesus Christ as your Saviour.
This question is very non-descriptive. But I am inferring can a person who has passed away pray for you now? Yes they can but only if they aren't going to hell. People in purgatory and in heaven can pray for you though. If he was a good man, chances are, yes he can pray for you.
