No, we really don’t. Jesus opened the gates of heaven for everyone and yes, whether we did the will of the Father or not we either go to heaven or hell. Without Jesus we would not be able to go to heaven because he is the only sacrifice that could atone for the Original Sin. We became separated from God through the sin of Adam and the only sacrifice that was great enough to please God was for God himself to become human flesh and die.
