If you are like a lot of people, you think you'll make it to heaven because you've been a good person. Maybe you've helped the poor, gave to charities, was always to work on time, etc. All of these are a good things in and of themselves, but, they aren't good enough to get you into heaven.
Ephesians; 2:8-9 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.
There's no way you can ever be good enough, because your sin has separated you from a righteous God. The only way to get rid of that sin is through the atoning blood of Jesus Christ. You must come to Jesus for forgiveness of sin.
1John; 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faith and just to forgive us our sins and to cease us from all unrighteousness.
God loves you and doesn't want you to perish, but He isn't going to force you to accept the free gift of eternal life. You must come to Jesus on your own free will to receive forgiveness. Don't put it off until another day. Today is the day for you to get right with God.
God Bless You
