What happens if I do good deeds?
Continuing to consider some of the motivations, there is one that's not only sobering, but inspiring---the concept of eternal rewards in the New Testament.

Even though Heaven is a gift, and not a reward, there are some of us that will be given 'rewards' in heaven based on faithful service here in this life. According to the Bible, there are actually two judgments that will take place in the future. The first one is for those who rejected Christ on this earth and it says that they'll be separated from God forever and that they'll be shown the justice of their fate---Hell---eternal separation from God.
