Hell does not exist so the question is superfluous.

It's not a matter of going to church. Hundreds of people in China can't go to church because it's illegal,but still have accepted Christ as their Savior. The whole point of accepting Christ is to acknowledge the fact that you are not perfect and no matter how good you live on earth, you will never be as perfect as God. Anyone with blemish deserves Hell however, the whole act of Christ dying on the Cross was so that when God sees you (when you accept Christ and put Him as prime in life), you are blemish-free. That's one of hundreds of reasons why God is love. He sent His only son so that you would be seen by God as perfect. It's like you are marked as washed clean when you have Christ in you heart and live serving Him. It's not a matter of control. It's actually out of love. You can choose to reject this, but the bottom line is that when you die and if you have not chosen to be seen as blemish free in God's eyes, you go to Hell. Mind you, people who continue to live a lustful life, live in unforgiveness, sorcery,etc and have accepted Christ, will not go to Heaven since they are abominable in God's eyes. It's either black or white in God's eyes. Showing how GOOD He really is.

If there is a place after this, and I hope there is, I think if you're a decent and caring person, if you've never hurt without remorse, if you've never been cruel or mean, just for the fun then you live a good life. Im hoping not going to church isn't going to send me to hell. Im catholic and look at the priests?? I want to go to confession to someone who has done unthinkable things and is STILL practicing? Think about it.

According to the scripture, specifically in the Bible - New Testament (Romans) even the person that never heard of the Church will respond to the Holy Spirit which was poured out on the entire human race after the atonement and resurrection of Jesus Christ. He died for the whole human race, in order to “redeem” it back to its maker – God. It is exactly because the free will and free choice that the Man has walked away from God, and He allowed it. But the way back is available to those that choose to be consecrated through Faith in Jesus Christ. The only evidence of this even actually happening is in the life of a “believer”. The scripture states the “You shall know them by their fruits” – meaning, you should recognize the good people by the good deeds, the bad ones by the evil deeds. You must “choose” who will you follow, If God, He will inspire you to live and lead a sacrificial, good life. Satan if allowed will also inspire you to his way of life which is evil; there is no resemblance of good in it. Scripture states that if there is any good, it all comes from God. So if you see a lifestyle that resembles any kind of goodness, it is a result of the work of the Holy Spirit (through our concisenesses) until the time when we finally “see” the light, and give our self’s back to God. Then, the “real” life starts and we do “good” deeds cognitively as “thanks giving” to God. Only then – going to Church becomes a home coming experience…

What we can do to keep from going to Hell has Nothing to do with church & Everything to do with our Personal Acceptance of Gods' Plan through Christ for us. We use our Free Will Not to go to church, but to Accept Christ. Going to church, ANY CHURCH, can't Save us.

From a Biblical perspective, it's not a matter of being good or bad, but what side a person is on, whether Christ's (where people put their trust in Him as their King and rescuer), or other (in which people's trust is in someone/something other). So then, as a Christian, it's not the church I point a person to, but Jesus, since He claims a monopoly on God (John 14:6), not us. Secondly, the world views freedom as being able to do what we want when we want. The problem with this is that what we want isn't always the right or best thing. In fact, a lot of the world's trouble can be explained by the fact that people do what they want when they want selfishly. In that case, people are really slaves to their passion and selfishness. However, in Christ and on His side, a person is free from that to live for Him, which, according to the Bible, is what we were designed and made for. Like a train is designed to run on rails, humans, from a Biblical perspective, were made to be in a relationship to Jesus, and when we are doing what we were made to do, that is freedom.

Church isnt where your belief is... its in your heart. Its not going... its believing :)
