Yes, I think so

@Classified Will I go to hell if I don't?

@Agent there's no such thing as hell, unless you create it in your own mind and believe it.

@Agent
Well there's always Purgatory.

@Agent Usually I don't like to preach hell, but since you asked if someone doesn't accept Jesus into their lives then eventually they'll go to hell. Jesus is the only way to heaven.

[quote] Jesus is the only way to heaven.[/quote]

Then how did Enoch, who lived long before before Jesus was even born, go directly into Heaven with God without Jesus?
Classified · M
@PatKirby It says Enoch was taken away. It doesn't explicitly state he went to heaven.
Jesus' parabel of Lazarus and the rich man suggests there is a waiting place, though since it's a parabel we don't know whether Jesus meant that place literaly.

Anyway I intended to give @Agent a clear general answer, not to cover every theological side discussion there might be.
