Millions and millions of people will not see Heaven because they made EXCUSES. Some examples.......I do not think that a loving God would send anyone to Hell.........All of those religious fanatics are people I want nothing to do with.............I am not a bad person...............I do not believe a literal translation of the Bible................
God gave EACH person a soul. EACH person is responsible for their own soul. Blaming something else or some other person may make a person feel good, but means nothing to God. God has already said that He does not condemn. WE condemn ourselves. How do we do this? By rejecting God's Son, Jesus Christ. Scripture says we are saved by GRACE, not of works, lest any man boast. Translation.........God's loving kindness to us is the only way offered mankind to live with God. However, WE must accept this Grace. It is a gift. Gifts must be accepted. Unless we accept a Gift we are unable to benefit from the Gift. Jesus Christ is God's Gift and unless we accept Jesus Christ we too will not receive the benefit of God's Gift.
A person's guard must always be up when it comes to their soul. Many people will see a clip on TV or hear a sound bite on radio which describes some famous person doing something which may appear harmless to the viewer or listener. However, if what they see or hear pertains to ANYTHING which is NOT JESUS CHRIST CENTERED it is NOT scriptural and is against God. God stated in scripture this very fact. There are not various ways to please God. The ONLY way to please God is to accept His gift.........Jesus Christ. By doing so we then receive our salvation, never to lose our salvation. Yes, we remain human. Yes, we will sin again. No, we will not live a sinless life from that moment of acceptance until we die. God understands this fact. Man, on the other hand can not understand. Man believes that he is able (man) to live a sinless life by himself. Mistake, mistake, mistake. Without the cleansing blood of Jesus Christ at our judgement no one will see Heaven.
