Q. My pastor or priest told me no one can be sure before they die that they are going to heaven. Is he right? A. "These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God." I John 5:13
Q. That verse tells me that I can know beyond a shadow of a doubt I'm going to heaven. How do I get to heaven? A. First, you must believe you have sinned against God. "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God" Romans 3:23 Second, you must realize that Jesus paid for your sins on the cross with his Blood and to reject Him as Savior brings eternal damnation. "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord". Romans 6:23 Thirdly, if you acknowledge the above and desire to turn from sin, ask Jesus to save you! Romans 10:13 |
