A number of Christians, however, hold that no one is predestined for either heaven or hell, but that a person's eternal destiny is determined by his character as it has been shaped by the choices made in life (see [[spiritual growth]]). The Swedish mystic [[Emmanuel Swedenborg]] is identified with such a belief.
