In the parable of the vineyard laborers the workers each receive a penny for their work no matter how long they have labored.
Perhaps the afterlife will be like this parable.
God punishes no one, so there can be no hell.
Perhaps there is also no special reward for obedience and service.
Perhaps everyone will be treated the same.
If God is understanding of my failings and forgives my transgressions then perhaps He is understanding and forgiving of everyone.
And we will receive a penny each.
