Are You Going To Heaven Or Hell?


The answer to this question is simple.
Do you love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind soul and strength?
If you do, you are headed to Heaven.
If you do not, you are headed to hell.

Do you love God and His Christ, Jesus more than any one or any thing?
Do you love the One who is the only Way, the only Truth and the only LIFE,
More than any one or any thing?

This is the first and greatest commandment of God.
If you keep this one commandment then you keep all the others.
If you break this one commandment then you break all the others.

Have you made a confession of faith in Christ Jesus
And received Him as Savior and Lord?
This is a good thing.
However, unless you love Him with all your heart, mind soul and strength,
Your confession is not true and has no ability to save you.

We are saved by our faith in Christ Jesus
And receiving His blood for the forgiveness of our sins;
By confessing with our mouth that He is our Lord
And believing in our heart that God raised Him from the dead.
However, if our faith is not validated by our heart set, mind set and actions,
It does not have value; it is meaningless.

Christ Jesus said:
If anyone comes to me and does not hate (love less) his father and mother,
His wife and children, his brothers and sisters--yes, even his own life–-
He cannot be my disciple.
Anyone who does not carry his cross and follow me cannot be my disciple.
(Luke 14:26-27)

Whoever tries to keep his life will lose it,
And whoever loses his life will preserve it. (Luke 17:33)

Anyone who loves his father or mother more than me is not worthy of me;
Anyone who loves his son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me;
And anyone who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me.
Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.(Matthew 10:37-39)

Seek first (above all else) His Kingdom and His righteousness,
And all these things (everything you need) will be given to you as well.
(Matthew 6:33)

We are saved through the blood of Christ, filled with His Spirit;
Now we must overcome this world by the power of His Spirit in us!

Christ Jesus speaking to saved saints
In the Seven Letters To The Seven Churches said:

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
To him who overcomes,
I will give the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God. (Revelation 2:7)

In the Book of Revelation a loud voice from heaven declares:
Now have come the salvation and the power and the Kingdom of our God,
And the authority of his Christ.
For the accuser of our brothers (the devil),
Who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down.
They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb
And the word of their testimony;
They did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death. (Revelation 12:10-11)

My prayer is that all who read this will overcome this world
And make Heaven their home.
