KINGDOM OF HEAVEN. Who is going to enter the KINGDOM OF HEAVEN? “For many are called, but few are chosen” (Matthew 22:14), says JESUS.
JESUS, the only begotten Son of God, also says: “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that [DOETH THE WILL OF MY FATHER WHICH IS IN HEAVEN]” (Matthew 7:21).
“[ENTER YE
IN AT THE STRAIT GATE]: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that
leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: [BECAUSE STRAIT
IS THE GATE, AND NARROW IS THE WAY, WHICH LEADETH UNTO LIFE, AND FEW THERE BE
THAT FIND IT]” (Matthew 713-14).
When Jesus
was here on this earth going about doing his Father’s business, he was asked by
his disciples, “[WHAT SHALL WE DO, THAT WE MIGHT WORK THE WORKS OF GOD]?” (John
6:28).
“Jesus
answered and said unto them, ‘This is the work of God, that ye [BELIEVE ON HIM
WHOM HE HATH SENT]’” (John 6:29).
“[MY SHEEP
HEAR MY VOICE, AND I KNOW THEM, AND THEY FOLLOW ME]: And [I GIVE UNTO THEM
ETERNAL LIFE]; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them
out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man
is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. I and my Father are one” (John
10:27-30).
“For God so
loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth
in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son
into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be
saved” (John 3:16-17).
“‘[BELIEVE
ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, AND THOU SHALT BE SAVED, AND THY HOUSE]’” (Acts
16:31).
“He that
believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned
already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of
God” (John 3:18).
“For as the
Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth
whom he will. For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment
unto the Son: That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the
Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent
him.
[VERILY,
VERILY, I SAY UNTO YOU, HE THAT HEARETH MY WORD, AND BELIEVETH ON HIM THAT SENT
ME, HATH EVERLASTING LIFE], and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed
from death unto life” (John 5:21-24).
In GLORY of
the FATHER, the SON and the HOLY SPIRIT. Amen.
