Why were we dishonestly taught that all good people who die go to heaven?

..we all know that when we die the body returns to the dust it was created from and the spirit which enabled our life returns to our heavenly creator so why are the churches and media instructed to continue decepting mankind into believing the lie that we either go to heaven or burn in hell when we die?

Update:

..the original purpose was for humans to live in perfection on the earth, although adam and eve messed up the plan our creator is perfect hence his purpose never changes so isn't it wise also logical to conclude that the going to heaven 'unproven theory is just a myth and humans are still somehow purposed to live on earth forever?

    Ignorance is darkness. The world is full of it. The term 'burn' is a loose rendering, but in a sense Souls do burn. To be exact, the flesh body is no more, so the Soul can not feel sensual pain. Actually, the Soul thirsts, because of the darkness and lack of understanding. Only the light and love of the Father Spirit can quench the thirst. On that note, God is also, the Fire. So, it will depend upon the acceptance of the individual Soul to kneel to the conclusion that Christ is King.

    your question is wrong because there are no good people in this world as the bible teaches.

    Romans 3:10,23 For there are none that are righteous no not one. for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.

    If we are saved at all it is because of God's grace unearned unmerited undeserved favour. Thanks for the question friend. God bless.

    No one knows this, people just say they know this but they're lying.
