Heaven "really" is FOR REAL!
1
Peter 4:18 (KJV) 18
And
if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner
appear?.

Recent
polls suggest that nearly 80% of all Americans believe there is a place called
heaven. Not only do
most Americans believe in heaven, most people expect to go there when they die.
If you took a microphone to the streets and asked, "Do you think you will
go to heaven when you die?" The vast majority of people would answer,
"I hope so," or "I think so “or perhaps” I think I've got a
good chance. Why-----Because we have lost the fear of God and hell.
God
created heaven and hell for His purposes. Just doing good will not get you into
heaven. Just being a positive person will not punch your ticket upstairs to the
big dance. The bible repeatedly tells us that in Ephesians 2:8 - “for by Grace
are ye saved and not by works; and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of
God.”
It
is all about having an intimate relationship with God through His son, Jesus
Christ. Until we come to grips with what this really means, our lives will not
produce the fruit that God intended. Don’t be confused about the conclusion of
the whole matter.
Prayer
for the week: Father,
pour out Your spirit all over my life. Let me know and practice real love while
on this earth. Empower me with Your love. In Jesus mighty
name, Amen!
