The other day I happened to flip through a book of Christian theology.
I don’t do that real often.
But as I did this, my eyes spotted a few words that are currently heard in our society.
(Well the words aren’t necessarily heard, but the ideas behind these words are bantered and heard).
For example the words: universal reconciliation. This is a teaching that the death of Jesus restored everyone to God. This happens whether anyone has responded to Jesus because of his death.
Consequently, another word: universalism, which seems to be a spin off from the tolerance philosophy, offers eternal good will to everyone.
The talk about these words finally gets around to asking:
Is Jesus the only way to heaven?
As a result, every now and then, you’ll see a poll wanting you to pick an answer:
A) I’m not sure
B) No
C) Yes
D) Other (explain)
I have a question: why is it so difficult for people to believe that Jesus is the way to heaven?
Going to heaven has been reserved for a little flock of 144,000 that are taken from the earth to rule as kings in the Kingdom of God. That is not my hope for my spirit does not bear witness with Gods that I am his son. My hope is to inherit the earth and have everlasting life when the wicked are cut off and the treacherous are torn away. When God has bought to ruin all those who are ruining the earth.Matt. 6:10: “Let your kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also upon earth.”Ps. 37:29: “The righteous themselves will possess the earth, and they will reside forever upon it.”Rev. 11:17,18: “We thank you, Jehovah God, the Almighty, the One who is and who was, because you have taken your great power and begun ruling as king. But the nations became wrathful, and your own wrath came, and the appointed time to bring to ruin those ruining the earth.”
This is a helpful blog … I’ve bookmarked the website with hopes to read more … this is the way a blog should be! thanks! (I appreciate your kindness)
Finally! This is just what I was looking for.
some great ideas here…
I definitely believe Jesus is the only way to Heaven. It
says so right in the Bible very clearly. I believe the Bible to be absolute
truth. I think some people just don’t want to believe Jesus is the only way.
He is the truth, the life, and the way. Francine
Proverbs 16:18 The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and those such as be of a contrite spirit. Psalm 145:18 The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth Jer. 29:12 Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. 13 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Philippians 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
