First, God is perfect. I always picture heaven as this completely clean place. If anyone comes with any dirt on them, whether the dirt of lying or murdering or whatever, that would make heaven dirty, and that goes against God's fundamental nature, so no amount of dirt is allowed in. That's Jesus' job, to clean off our dirt so that we can be in heaven.
The second issue is who can get to heaven. I'm sure many of the people on this site will disagree with me, but I have no problem picturing Ghandi in heaven. He worked for justice and truth while he was here. And God is Truth, so anytime you are seeking Truth you are seeking God. You might not recognize it as Jesus, but it is still Him. I always think of a scene in The Last Battle - there is a man who ends up in heaven. And he says, "But I never followed you, Aslan, I followed Tash" (or whatever his name was). And Aslan tells him, "You sought after Truth, and thus were seeking me." So whether Ghandi confessed Jesus specifically on earth is to me irrelevant.
