Christ warned of hell more than he talked about heaven.

This is nonsense. See John 3:16-17.

God so loved the world that he gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him might not perish but might have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through Him.

So what are you saying? Are you part of the group that says nobody goes to hell?

I think, that if you count the times He referred to either, you will find that Jesus talked about people going to hell far more than He talked about them going to heaven. He seemed to WANT them all in heaven, of course, but then, there is the troubling passage where he says he spoke in parables to that certain men would NOT understand, lest they believe and be saved. that passage always bothered me, but I wouldn't think of ignoring it or denying it because I find it troubling.
