Can I believe in Jesus and still not get to stay in Heaven?
Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. - Hebrews 5:13
New revelations and understanding are being made known to those who truly seek the kingdom of God and it's righteousness, we must seek to find more understanding, more knowledge and more wisdom. The Holy Spirit has been focusing on revealing the role we are to play as those who have been made righteousness in Christ. The bible says let the righteous do righteous works. What does that mean.? What does the word righteous mean?
Think about it..
Think about it..
We will discuss that at another time...For now, let us concentrate on this foundational knowledge on the principles concerning heaven first. We all know that to enter heaven we need to believe in Jesus and be baptized by immersion. However, the truth is that Jesus is not the Kingdom of God or the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus said " I am the way"....the truth and the life. He is the way to get into the kingdom of heaven. What does this mean.... Just because You have Jesus, it does not guarantee your entering the kingdom of Heaven. What will get you there will be my works.
Jesus said if our righteousness does not surpass those he considered 'hypocrites' even though you believe in Jesus, you will not enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven. - Matthew 5:20
Jesus will walk with you if you are on the road that He is on, which is the narrow pathway, however, the heavenly conditions to enter depend on your acts, your achievements in God and your character. The answer to the big question is yes, yes yes. You can miss entering into the kingdom of Heaven even though you are believer.
I know your next question is this..., What good was it in giving your life to Christ? .....The answer is that You get to have the opportunity to walk on the right way to The Kingdom of Heaven. There is no other way to get to enter the Kingdom of Heaven except through Christ.
Let’s assume, we believe we are all in the pathway because we go to church regularly... Are you sure you are truly on the pathway? You need to check your life..Jesus said only a few will find it.
But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.
- Matthew 7:14
“Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to. - Luke 13:24
What can hinder you?
Above, you read that entering the Kingdom of heaven depends on your acts, your achievements in God and your character. To treat each area as a summary does not do justice to the subject matter so we will treat each subject separately. Next lesson will be treating our acts that hinder us from Entering The Kingdom of Heaven..
Hope you were enlightened and looking forward to gaining more knowledge on the things of the spirit.
God bless you.
God bless you.
