Bible Answer: John 3:16 is a promise that says anyone who believes in Jesus Christ will not perish, that is not go to hell, and will have eternal life, that is, will go to heaven. Christians refer to someone who truly believes in Christ as being saved or obtaining salvation.
Bible Answer: The reason a Christian usually has doubts about his or her salvation or about God’s forgiveness is because he or she is not confessing sin and seeking to turn away from the sins he or she is committing.
The people who go to heaven are all alike in one way: they are sinners who have placed their faith in the Lord Jesus Christ (John 1:12; Acts 16:31; Romans 10:9). They have recognized their need for a Savior and humbly accepted God’s offer of forgiveness.
Wondering whether you’ll go to heaven? Worried your sin will keep you out? These questions weigh heavily on people, even without the added stress of a pandemic and civil unrest. The Bible says you can know for sure that you’ll be with God after you die.
So yes, a Christian can die in sin (as long as they are truly saved) and still go to heaven. As Paul says in Philippians 3:8-9, we do not stand in our righteousness, but in the righteousness of Christ. If we are in Christ, there is no condemnation for us (Romans 8:1). We belong to Him. Nothing can separate us from Him.
The Bible states that all of us are sinners, and therefore deserve eternal death. But because God is love and full of grace, He made the provision for His Son Jesus to come and die on the cross for our sins, so that we can live forever with Him.
In order for a person to be rescued from their sins and go to heaven, a person must believe in Jesus Christ. For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
The truth is that according to the Bible we don’t automatically go to heaven. In fact, hell—not heaven—is our default destination. Unless our sin problem is solved once and for all, we can’t enter heaven.

While there are various interpretations within Christianity, many passages in Scripture affirm that believers experience a conscious, immediate presence with Christ upon death.
So, the answer is, no, it will not be possible for us to sin in heaven. God wills our sanctification (1 Thessalonians 4:3); that is, He wills to make us holy and free of sin.
