No offense, but this kind of rhetoric is one of the reasons people become atheists, or at least stop being religious. It sounds like a threat(I know thats not your intention) and trying to convert through fear.
Well better hell-scared than hell-scorched. But salvation is a one time free thing that you can't lose, it's not an invitation to join a religion necesarilly, just to trust in Jesus to save you, and if you do trust him to save you, 1 John 5:13 says God wants you to know that you have eternal life, so there would be no reason to fear, I'm not afraid of going to hell because I trusted Jesus to save me and he did, so I'm saved and that's that.
And I mean I heard that but the Bible says this:
.
John 3:19-21
19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
.
I heard Jesus preached the most about hell in the Bible, that nobody preached about it more than him, and this is what he said the condemnation is ^

indeed it is
imagine people from other religions saying similar stuff as Blax
we would get a full on war here
He needs to understand everyone have their own beliefs and we should respect them
Well can people from other religions tell you that their book tells them where they're going when they die?
The Bible is the only book that says it, the rest is just trying to get to heaven, with no confirmation, other beliefs don't know where they're going when they die, I know because God wrote it down in his word, and Jesus is the only one that's trust-worthy, because he died and was dead for three days and rose again
2 Timothy 1:12
For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed
: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.
1 John 5:13
These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
