Do Jewish people go to Heaven?

Do Jewish people go to Heaven? They don't accept Jesus as the Saviour, so I would think no.
But, they are the "chosen people." Does this give them a pass, or does this mean something else. I have it means they were the ones God chose to reveal Himself to.

Thats an amazing Question,it really gets someone thinking.But i think the Bible can shed some light on that.See,its written only the righteous will enter heaven $ its further specified that,'all have sinned & fallen short of Gods glory'.
So in the end,whether Jewish/not,we will be Judged & unless covered by the name of Jesus,we will be found short of righteousness.

i guess not

John 14:6

Do Jews go to heaven?

Jesus was a Jew.

If Jews don't go to heaven, and Jesus was a Jew, then Jesus doesn't go to heaven. Hmmm...that doesnt seem right.

If Jews do go to heaven, then Jesus can go to heaven. That seems just about right.

There you have it.

Well said!

Yes, Jesus was a Jew. Jews were God's chosen people.
Jewish people don't go to Heaven now because they don't believe that Jesus was the Messiah...and He is! He was born of a virgin to save our lives. The Jewish people before Jesus came to this Earth went to Heaven because there was no such thing as Christianity then. They were Gentiles.
Before Jesus came to this earth to save us and before then the Jews were waiting for the Messiah, He came and many believed. But now, the Jewish culture/religion has changed. The Jews don't believe that the Messiah has come. They just believe that Jesus was a good man.
