Belief is not prove of anything. Just because someone chooses to believe what they want does not mean what they believe is truth.
After all, the devil believed he could overpower God to become not only like him but above him......and he is going to hell forever.
Sincerity is not a measure of truth, it is nothing more than a show of how strongly the desire is within someone to believe what they wish to believe.
Many people who sincerely believe they are going to heaven because they had enough good works in their life will not be in heaven. But to listen to them now they are sincerely convinced they are good enough to go to heaven.
Matthew 7:21-23 "21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter.
22 Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many [a]miracles?’
23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness.’"
