They believe that if they die -- permanently, without hope of revival -- while being "right with God" (the precise meaning of which varies by sect), then they get to go to Heaven.

I don't see where the "permanently" part comes from. It may be the layman's interpretation, but I don't think it's Biblically motivated.
