is there any qualifications/requirement for us to go in heaven after we die?

well, honestly for me there is no qualifications for as long as you believe God, i know we can be at heaven with him and as long as you have no doubts about God and you believe in salvation, i know we will be in heaven.. you, what do you believe about after you die??will you be in hell or in heaven??

Its not just a matter of believing.Satan even believes.The Bible clearly says that " Not everyone who says to me "Lord Lord will enter the kingdom of heaven,but who does the will of my father who is in heaven" Matt7:21.Does that mean we have to work in order to get there? Not if your refering to the " works of law" but if your refering to the works of faith,then yes.
We are saved by grace alone with faith that works.If we claim to have faith in Jesus,then we must act it.
I believe once we accept Jesus into our lives then we become new and want to do the things which our right and pleasing to God.
I know in my heart,I will someday stand before God and be in heaven and to me thats awesome.

Why do you have to believe in God to go to heaven? Surely he is a forgiving man, and if you haven't done anything wrong in your life why should you be punished in hell? What about those people who have never heard of God should they go to hell?

i have done wrong things in life but when i got to know God he made my life changed...he let me know that He is always there even though you don't care or how far you are to Him..if You get to know who He is, you can really say He is our Saviour..you'll know how beautiful and awesome He is to you,and to your life...if you just believe in His words and that God does exist, then ,you can find answers to your questions about life...

Yes The Good Deeds Are The Qualification. And Without A believe in God How can You do a good deed? It is because that we want to make God Happy and Pleased with us We do good deeds.

its not the good deeds...it is on how you believe that there is God and if you believe that God already save you..

there's no certainty that there is an actual requirement for people to go to heaven if they die. im not good at verses and chapters of the bible but it stated some issues about who could only enter the gates of heaven. in some chapters it stated that it is not the things that we do that would count but the way we live our lives and how we practce our faith. maybe the safe "pass" would be to keep your faith in God and do whatever is right and just.

i really do agree with you, for as long as you live according to His word and will and you live with Him with faith, and you do everything for the glory of God..
