Hello ,
Heaven offers nothing that a mercenary soul can desire. It is safe to tell the pure in heart that they shall see God, for only the pure in heart want
to.
C.S. Lewis
I'm amazed at the number of people who actually believe that they can
somehow earn heaven by being good people. A number of years ago, some friends and I went from door to door in a city asking the following question: "How does one attain eternal life?"
More than 90% of the people that we asked this question to gave the following answer: "By being a good person."
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6:23
Jesus was very clear that heaven is never earned.
It's not possible. It has to be a gift. Our job is accept the gift, allow it to change our lives, and live in grateful awe of a God that loves us that much.
Have a great day and God bless!
