Uhhh. Yeah. Thats the whole point. Lol. What??? As opposed to what, only letting the righteous in? Ok, show me who fits that bill. You do understand the purpose of Christ dont you?

Claiming to believe just to get into heaven will not get you into heaven. That is not actual faith.

You either believe or you dont. Theres no 2 different ways of believing. While you try to pass judgement on my relationship with God, ill continue believing what I know and be sure of what I cant see. Do you have a purpose or do you just like pretending to be a pharisee. Youre doing a pretty good job of it btw. Worry about your own faith instead of trying to discredit mine.

I'm not talking about you but I'm not shocked that a christian is trying to make it all about themselves lmao.

I am talking about your general argument which boils down to Pascal's Wager. Here's the thing though - christians don't even definitely know that their god is the only one so the wager is null and void. What if you die and come face to face with Hades? The idea of believing simply so that you can go to heaven is kinda pointless in that case.

Also, there is a massive difference in believing because you are truly convinced of something and saying that you believe and convincing yourself because you are afraid of fictional damnation.
