You've been sold a bill of goods that's not true of Christianity. I know you live in Europe and I do not know how Christians think there, but I would be surprised if it's different than in the US.

If christians don't do good because of fear or reward, then why does Jesus mention Hell and Heaven?

Because they are real and you can only have the one you choose. Jesus is telling us what each is like.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
