Keep your unbelief. After you die, you will know the truth. If then its too late to change your mind, its your problem.
Are you a Christian?
If you are then do you have the slightest inkling of how fabricated from earlier mystery cults Christianity is? Keep in mind that in the 5th century the Pope had to order "Christians" to stop worshiping the Sun on the steps of St. Peter's.
You may as well say, "Your disloyalty will be severely punished by Ra in the afterlife."
Any close examination of modern religions that present God as a literal figure shows how they're a distortion of earlier belief systems that were created to try and make sense of where conscience and consciousness arise from. They were meant to be esoteric myths to explain an inner experience they were never meant to be taken literally.
So Heaven and Hell are merely fabrications created by people to be used as carrots and sticks, in just the way you're attempting here.

ah, argument from ignorance. Thinks christianity is not true, therefore naturalism is.
