Q47: If I don't believe in God will I go to hell?

First, it is not for me to say - I am not your judge. But if you get to be grown up and do not believe in God - would you really expect God to say: "You MUST come into heaven." No! He will not. So you will be where God is not, with other people who do not believe in Him. I reckon that would not be very nice. So, be smart - let God in and enjoy all the good things He has in store for those who love Him. Do please note that God, early in the Bible, punished ‘grown–ups’ for not trusting Him and said: “All those twenty (20) years and over will not see the promised land.” God meant those under 20 were not considered old enough to choose to deliberately ignore God. So those under 20 years of age are considered a ‘child’ by God’s thinking and will go to heaven. Those over 20 are able to choose not to believe in God, will go to where God is not.
