Christians: do you believe Jews will go to heaven? Muslims?
God gave them all of the rules and rituals in the book of Leviticus, but Jesus says, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life.. No one comes to the Father except through me." What about Muslims who also believe in the same God, under the name Allah. This is one of those questions where opinions are fine and encouraged. Please give reasoning to your answers. Bible verses are greatly appreciated.

i dunno which bible verse it is...google it...but god does say in the bible somewhere that he "has sheep in EVERY fold"
so this would include athiests who still lived simple moral lives.

I'm a Bible-believing Trinitarian Christian. However, my own views about salvation lean toward universalism. I have trouble believing that billions of people are doomed forever merely because they picked a wrong belief system out of innocent ignorance.
On top of that, I'm open to the possibility that I'm wrong and that I'll meet Allah or maybe some Wiccan deity when I die. If that is what happens, then I could only hope that they understand that I didn't pick the wrong belief system on purpose. I'd also hope that how we treat others is considered to be more important than which religion we professed to follow.
As for that Bible verse, I understand that as simply meaning that we will all meet Jesus after we die, not that we have to be Catholic, Lutheran, Baptist, or whatever else.

No.
All non Christians, including Jews and Muslims, are going to Hell because
1. we all born into sin since young
2. we need to repent under the blood of Jesus.
Speaking from a former Christian.

Well, God says in the the 10 commandments, that 'You shall have no other gods or men before Me.'
Hate to tell you this, but Jesus is/was a man. By worshiping him as God, you are breaking the first of Gods 10 commandments.

but Jesus says, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life.. No one comes to the Father except through me."

Yes, God didn't create 7 billion people so that only 2 billion of them can go to heaven. God will judge ALL living beings on judgement day.

From my figuring out of Jewish religion different beliefs can have a just right afterlife in the event that they have been righteous. That is a notion i admire for my part and share in long-established with them as a Buddhist. It appears far more humane in my eyes.

Give a criminal money and power is he not in the heavan he desires? Jews and Muslims are not promised everlasting life by their god. They merely enjoy what their god gives them and they refuse to listen to Jesus because Jesus tells them to give away their wealth and power and allow people to humiliate hurt and kill u and then u will recieve everlasting life? This is like offering an alcholic to except an apple over alcohol he knows what each item makes him feel like and for an alcoholic alcohol is going to be what he wants to feel. Who wants to be like me and be suffered and humiliated by the temptors when the temptors can satisfy your fleshly desires?
