    No. No human has any righteousness before the holy perfect and righteous God. You must have the alien righteousness of Jesus Christ in order to enter into Heaven.

    there are two theologies to look about works and rewards and salvation and grace.

    of course salvation is a free gift of grace, but there is also a grace, spoken of, which is given after all we can do. and there is an exaltation beyond the common salvation. and dont forget, there are 3 degrees of glory, see 1Cor 15:35; 40-42 and there are three levels of heaven ! and of course there are no less than 3 different types of hell.

    No. Going to heaven is not your choice. Nor is it a given. God and Christ do the deciding and choosing. You do not.

    All you can do is to accurately gain knowledge of the Bible and what God's will is, then DO IT. Absolutely thinking you automatically go to heaven is INaccurate knoiknoiwledge.

    No.

    The word 'righteous' means absolutely nothing and heaven doesn't exist.

    If you believe it will. Otherwise, you will blissfully rot in the ground like I will do when I die. And I'm just fine with that.
