These scriptures point out the destination one can expect relevant to their actions during their lifetime 1. those who do His commandments are given entrance into heaven. 2. those who opposed His commandments are barred from heaven.
Expecting to receive a second chance after death is a deception of the enemy. It is a ploy to take as many with him into the lake of fire for eternity. And sadly people don't see that.

I noticed you seemed to take offense at CS1's post above. But the comments made are true.
Consider that God's truth is what sets people free. And many are not familiar with what it says. Sharing God's truth in love has the ability to shatter Satan's deception. We will all be judged by the word of God. (John 12:48)

I was not offended
I just think that GOD leads us and ordain leaders
To correct
And I personally am neither an ordained leader to correct
Nor am I aware of God's will for another person
I also think one of the things God has given believers is prayer, and fasting
Intercession instead of quick judgment

Dear crossnote,
You are loved so dearly by God and I know you love Him too! You seek truth and diligently study the scriptures but, just ask His Holy Spirit if what I posted is true or not.
Don’t rely on me or your human understanding...ask your Teacher, Comforter, and Guide.
Learn to rely on The Holy Spirit for understanding of the scriptures.
He’ll open your understanding and feed you hidden manna...deep secrets revealed to the hearts that diligently seek Jesus Christ....ones that run after God, not what man says about God.
Read and ponder the last 3 chapters of Revelation....notice...in Rev 22:14-15 there are saved souls that are not restored because they were not allowed to enter the Holy City...they are dogs, sorcerers, whoremongers, murderers, etc...
Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city.
But outside are dogs and sorcerers and sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and whoever loves and practices a lie.
Revelation 22:14-15 - https://www.biblegateway.com/passage?search=Revelation 22:14-15&version=NKJV
There is a journey of the restoring of the soul - our mind, will and emotions.
Our mind must be filled with absolute truth of The Word of God;
Our emotions must line up exactly with God’s emotions...we love what He loves and hate what He hates...we can be angry and sin not; and
Our will must line up exactly with His Will...all our choices and decisions are exactly what His Will is.
A saved soul enters Paradise but, a restored soul enters the Holy City...all the way to The Throne Room.
It sounds like God is making us like robots but, He’s not. God is making us like Him! Amazing! Wow!!! Absolutely amazing!!

Please show me in Scripture where you find these claims of yours.

nor are you needing to be ordained to correct. We can know the Will of God by the word of God
We know from the word of God the Will of God is No one should perish. We know from the Word of God that Jesus came to seek that which was lost and save.
But we have a very tenacious enemy who has decided many with false concepts or held truths.
If you study the idea of Agnosticism and where it came from the very origin is from the pit of hell.
from the Greeks who thought the Gospel was foolishness because even back during Paul's ministry they seem themselves as having intellectual superiority. God's word says " A fool has said in their heart there is no God." Ps 14:1
these so-called agnostics have many who at one time believed they were called by God yet left the faith.
They know better than God. Many well-taught Christians surrendered to what was perceived as their intellectual superiority. these men below were used to bring the doctrines of devils that have taken root in churches, legislation, schools, and in the minds of many people.
Karl Marx
Charles Darwin
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
out of them came :
Marxism, socialism, communism, atheism, agnosticism.
All accepted by those who made right by Might or perceived intellectual supremacy.
Karl Marx died of catarrh
Charles Darwin's heart attack on Christmas, followed by seizures.
Nietzsche died of brain cancer. that many seem to believe was from an STD
Today the is but one issue with Christians' deception as Jesus said the last days were to be on guard of and hate.

- Charle Darwin founder of the great deceptive theory known to man and still taking millions to hell today by being deceived.
- T. H. Huxley Originally coining the term in 1869, Huxley elaborated on "agnosticism" in 1889 to frame the nature of claims in terms of what is knowable and what is not. he said:

I absolutely adore this post of yours. However, I see you as just as equal and deserving as anyone else in this world. I don't have any say in anyone's life either . . . for I am only made of this physical world.
My job? My job is to Love each of you; to support each of you . . . even my enemies. If my job is to feed my enemies (to do good to them), then how much more is it my job to feed my True Brothers and Sister?
Did I mention that I loved your post?!

What "we" do, and I was so utterly guilty of this . . . is that because each of us feels like a True Christian, we look at ourselves; our attitudes and behaviors, and from this point, we develop our doctrine. If we feel that we are saved, but we're leaving our wife and children at home while we hang out with the boys at the strip clubs, drinking gallons of alcohol and using pounds of drugs . . . we base our doctrine off of these realities . . . all the while ignoring Holy Scripture that condemns us/me for our/my actions.
If we haven't Changed, it's because we haven't been Transformed by the mighty Power of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. If we haven't Changed, it's because the Spirit has not indwelt our Hearts. The Spirit has not changed our Hearts.
Romans 2:28-29 NLT - "For you are not a true Jew just because you were born of Jewish parents or because you have gone through the ceremony of circumcision. No, a true Jew is one whose heart is right with God. And true circumcision is not merely obeying the letter of the law; rather, it is a change of heart produced by God's Spirit. And a person with a changed heart seeks praise from God, not from people."

People expect God to work according to a pattern we can understand
Nowhere in scripture is this apparent. In Matthew the prostitutes and tax collectors are advancing into the kingdom, in the old testament unlikely characters suddenly are promoted against all expectations. This is leaving room for God's sovereignty and mercy to work to save whoever he wants to beyond our ability to know. We cannot know if there is no second chance (or simply a first chance or final chance) or not, or exactly how it works. If some think there is, that is as understandable as those who think there is not based on the revealed character of God as above our ways
The enemy does deceive and God surely must take account of the deception people have been exposed to when they made their decisions to be just which explains at least some of the forgiveness Jesus displayed in the gospels to people that were written off as hopeless cases by the religious authorities of the day. God worked differently to what all the experts were predicting
I think part of accepting God is surrendering to his ultimate perfection and acknowledging our limited ability to know for sure which then forces us to express and find a way to describe the being we ultimately worship so we are as ready as we can be to stand before him one day. if that is a scary thought, then that's what the Holy Spirit is all about not to reveal revelations but to put that relationship on a firmer foundation, so hell itself is must also be used by the enemy to deceive, if an overly strict and harsh view is an much deception as an overly lax one, we are lost without Jesus and the Holy Spirit to guide through this troubled world, scripture alone is open to various interpretations, stamp your colours to the mast and say what ultimately you will say when you stand before Him

But they don't enter in as prostitutes or those who swindle others. Their hearts are changed through faith in Jesus.
Again by faith in God's promises (as Rahab did).
True, but it still takes the knowledge of God through the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
2 Corinthians 4:6 (KJV) For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
Maybe you should ask the rich man if he got a 2nd chance. He would give your answer as an emphatic 'No!'...
Luke 16:23-24 (KJV) And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
God does take into account the deception in people, that is why salvation is so simple that a child would not err therein. It takes the sophisticated eggheads to talk themselves out of believing.
This is classical Emergent Church gobbley-goop and to live your 'christian' life with no certainty of "Thus saith the Lord" in Scripture leads one down a path of apostasy.
Hebrews 2:1-3 (KJV) Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip. For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of reward; How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;
