Oct 18, 2024 · Answer. The question of whether there are more people in heaven or hell is answered by Jesus Himself: “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it” (Matthew 7:13–14).
Jesus taught in Matthew 7:13-14, "Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few." There will evidently be far more people in hell than in heaven.

- Hell is a place to be united with unbelievers. There is widespread belief among non-Christians that hell is a place where they will be united with their unbelieving friends and drink beer all the time in an endless party.
- Hell is a place where Satan and his demons reign. Another false belief is that hell is the place where Satan and his demons exercise their authority to rule and reign.

- There are people in hell who want to reconcile with God. Yet another misconception is that there are people in hell crying out for mercy who want to reconcile with God.
Jul 1, 2013 · So Jesus is the only way anybody can get to heaven. There is no other way. (2 Corinthians 5:10) All men will be judged. People covered with the blood of Jesus will go to heaven, people still in their sins go to hell. The word of the Lord is "sharper than any two-edged sword" Hebrews 4:12. There is a clear distinction.

If you look at human history, it appears more people are going to hell than to heaven since only a small percentage of the world’s population is Christian. Only 31.7 percent of the world’s population is considered Christian. By the way, the word “Christian” can be associated with some form of Christian faith, not necessarily the biblical definition...
Although Christianity is considered the largest religion today, clearly we can see that the vast majority of humanity is not and has never been part of any form of Christian worship, so they cannot technically call themselves Christian. According to Christian teachings, humans are made in the image of God; and as such, all should have an equal oppo...
How can we know who the Christians truly are? They obey God. Jesus said“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven” (Matt 7:21-23). If someone is not following God’s Word or obeying Him, then that person cannot truly claim to be a Christian. On the Day of ...
The Bible clearly teaches that “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight” (Prov 9:10), but today, there is little fear or respect or reverence for the Lord (Rom 3:18). There should be, because our eternal destiny is at stake. We shouldn’t worry so much about who kills us or how but rather, what h...
If you are not sure if you yourself are a Christian, today is the day to decide that. Today is the Day of Salvation (1 Cor 6:2) and not tomorrow. We must make certain, which is why the Apostle Peter commanded us to“be all the more diligent to confirm your calling and election, for if you practice these qualities you will never fall”(2 Pet 1:10). Th...
I wish it were not true that the majority of mankind will be cast into hell someday (Dan 12:2-3; Rev 20:12-15, 21:8). It’s not so amazing that only a few in the human family will believe in Christ or only a few will be saved. What’s amazing to me is that anyone is saved. God Himself must open our eyes and ears to see and hear the gospel and why we ...
It is not clear whether more people will go to Heaven or hell. In Mathew 7:13-14 Jesus says that getting into the gates of Heaven is hard, and, as a result, a few will enter. On the other hand, in Revelation, John’s vision of Heaven reveals that there will be many people in all manner of tribes in Heaven .

Feb 13, 2024 · Going to hell is the default position of humanity. Going to heaven is the free gift of God’s grace, received by faith, offered to all people (Ephesians 2:1–10). God wants people to be reconciled with Him, so He provided the way (John 14:6). Every person is invited to go to heaven. Going to heaven or hell has everything to do with God’s ...
