How many of you feel that if jesus came back today or tomorrow would you go to heaven or hell?

That is a serious question man. My thoughts on the matter is, You think you are living in heaven, but, you are living in hell.
Think on this!!!!!!!!!! ???

If Jesus came back today, I am ready to be translated and go back with him. I hope that many more on FC can say the same thing.

While I appreciate your question, it represents a massive misunderstanding that most Christians have.  You can thank Plato for this one as his philosophy had far too much impact on Xianity than he should have from the very beginning. 

So let me ask you this: according to the Bible (not anyone's imagination) where is heaven located after Jesus returns?  If you take the time to really read and understand what the Bible is saying about this, you will eventually come to realize that heaven comes down to earth (for example see Revelation chapter 21).  According to the Bible, God's kingdom comes here and He makes all things new!

If anyone is looking for a good book to read in their celebration of Easter, I would highly recommend N.T. Wright's book "Surprised By Hope."

I am really confused by healthfreedom's answer...
"If Jesus came back today, I am ready to be translated and go back with him. I hope that many more on FC can say the same thing."

What does "translated" mean?  Go back where?

 

To answer the original question:  I will be here - where God's kingdom will be spanning the globe (the fully realized heaven), and not because of anything that I have done, but only because of what Jesus has done.
