IT IS JESUS WHO DECIDES WHO GOES TO HEAVEN!
John 14:1-6 (in my words) - Let not your heart be troubled: you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. And where I go you know, and the way you know. Thomas said unto Him, Lord, we do not know where You are going; so how can we know the way? Jesus said unto him, I AM The Way, I AM The Truth, and I AM The Life: no man comes unto the Father, but by Me.
FIRST, JESUS HAD TO PROVIDE THE WAY!
John 1:29 (in my words) - The next day John saw Jesus coming to him, and said, Behold the Lamb of God, Who takes away the sin of the world.
1 Corinthians 5:7 (in my words) - For even Christ, our Passover Lamb, is sacrificed for us.
2 Corinthians 5:21 (in my words) - For God has made Jesus, Who knew no sin, to be sin for us, that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him.
Hebrews 4:14-16 (in my words) - Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession of faith in Him. For we have not a high priest Who cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but Who was in all points tempted like us, and yet He remained sinless. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in our time of need.
1 John 2:1-2 (in my words) - My little children, I write these unto you, that you sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ The Righteous: and He totally satisfied our sin debt: and not ours only, but also the sins of the whole world.
THIS IS HOW JESUS SHALL JUDGE MANKIND!
Revelation 20:11-15 (in my words) - And I saw a great white throne, and Him Who sat on it, from before Whose face heaven and earth fled away; and there was no place found for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books* were opened: and another book** was opened, which is The Lamb's Book of Life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books,* according to their deeds. [*Note: I believe "the books" are the books of the Law of God, and because All of us sin, our deeds convict us and declare us guilty!] And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their deeds. And death and hell were cast into The Lake of Fire. This is the second death. And whosoever's name was not found written in The Lamb's Book of Life was cast into The Lake of Fire. [**Note: I believe that Jesus, as the Lamb of God, is the author of the Lamb's Book of Life, and those whose names are written there by Him, have trusted in Him for their salvation.]
DO YOU BELIEVE JESUS DIED FOR YOUR SINS?
DO YOU BELIEVE GOD RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD?
ARE YOU TRUSTING IN GOD'S MERCY AND GRACE?
IF SO, LOOK UP - OUR REDEEMER IS COMING SOON!
