Does any other Christian or other religion tell exactly how to get to heaven besides the born again Christian religion from the bible?

    There appear to be five major categories regarding how to get to heaven in the world’s religions. Most believe that hard work and wisdom will lead to ultimate fulfillment, whether that is unity with god (Hinduism, Buddhism, and Baha’i) or freedom and independence (Scientology, Jainism). Others, like Unitarianism and Wicca, teach the afterlife is whatever you want it to be, and salvation is a non-issue because the sin nature doesn’t exist. A few believe either the afterlife doesn’t exist or it’s too unknowable to consider.

    Derivatives of the worship of the Christian-Judeo God generally hold that faith in God and/or Jesus and the accomplishment of various deeds, including baptism or door-to-door evangelism, will ensure the worshiper will go to heaven. Only Christianity teaches that salvation is a free gift of God through faith in Christ (Ephesians 2:8–9), and no amount of work or effort is necessary or possible to get to heaven.

    You enter into the kingdom of heaven through Christ. I would also point out that if you think this is something that happens when you die, you would be mistaken. We don't worship the God of death. You enter into the kingdom of heaven when you are alive, here on Earth.

    The Bible teaches that Jesus died on the cross to pay for our sins, and rose from the dead, so that whoever puts their trust in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. If you will sincerely Repent and Receive Jesus as your Savior and Lord. He will come into your heart, save you, forgive you, and give you eternal life. We are saved by what Jesus has done for us, not by anything that we can ever do. http://www.peacewithgod.net/

    Probably not but I would challenge the "born again" movement on a couple of fronts.

    Mainly that the concept of "born again" in certain evangelical Christian circles is a novel doctrine that did not exist in the historic Church or most branches of Christianity(Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox). The historic Christian understanding of what it means to be "born again" involves baptism. Because through baptism we experience a rebirth, hence why Christ says " I tell you no one can enter into the Kingdom without being born of water and the spirit"(John 3:5).

    The notion that born again means "I accept Jesus into my life personally" is a novel redefinition that took place in the last two hundred years after the Great Awakening with Charles Finney. None of the historic Churches(Orthodox, Catholic, Anglican, Lutheran, Reformed, etc) accept this doctrine.
