Certainly good people go to heaven. That is true. But who defines good? God does. How is it defined? As perfection. Are you perfect?
Yes... if you are good enough... meaning, if you are perfect. That's God's standard... perfection. Have you ever broken any of God's laws or commands? How many lies have you told? Have you ever taken something that does not belong to you? Has there ever been anything more important than God to you? God says, “All have sinned.” That means you have sinned... and deserve the just punishment... but there is an answer...
Jesus. There is no other answer.
"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." - Romans 3:23
"The wages of sin is death... - Romans 6:23a
"All liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death. - Revelation 21:8
"...but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord - Romans 6:23b
"God demonstrates his own love toward us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us. - Romans 5:8
"Therefore having been justified by faith we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ." - Romans 5:1
Faith does not mean a bind faith. It is a faith based in solid, historical facts:
"Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and He was buried, and He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and He appeared to Cephas (Peter), then to the twelve. After that He appeared to more than five hundred brethren at one time, most of whom remain until now, but some have fallen asleep; then He appeared to James, then to all the apostles; and last of all, as to one untimely born, He appeared to me (Paul) also." - 1 Corinthians 15:3-8
It is a historical fact, Jesus Chris died, and three days later rose from the dead. His resurrection proves there us life after death. Life that we can have with Him.

Hell's Best Kept Secret (Living Waters Audio)
Jesus does not promise to take away all your troubles. He promises those will get worse. But, Jesus does promise to free you from worry and anxiety.
How does that work?
The Bible says, Be anxious for nothing... (Philippians 4:6) Why? When you trust Jesus, no matter what happens in this life, you will spend eternity with God... and that is VERY GOOD.
And do not be afraid of those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul; but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. - Matthew 10:28
Who can destroy your body and soul? Only God. (Not Satan) However, God does not send you to hell, you do that when you disobey God. However, God created hell, aka. the lake of fire, the second death (Revelation 21:8).
You can be rescued. Jesus Christ (God) died on the cross to save all those who believe in Him... all those who trust Him to pay their just penalty for disobeying God.
Trust in Jesus and you'll know your time on earth is like a wisp of smoke that vanishes in the wind. Trust that Jesus did pay YOUR penalty for sin. Repent. Turn away from disobeying God.
Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved. (Acts 16:31) and there will no longer be a reason for worry or anxiety.
