Good Works Will Not Pay Your Way To Heaven

Only Faith In Jesus Will Get You To Heaven. ~ Heaven Quotes ~

It's sad to think that anyone believes they can earn their way to heaven. You can't be good enough. Your family heritage can't get you to heaven. Your good works won't be sufficient either.

Salvation is a free gift from God. It's given to us by our faith in what Jesus Christ did for us on the cross. He paid the price by giving His life so we can go to heaven.

In my opinion, it's a slap in the face of God that anyone would think they can earn their way to heaven by their good works.

Should we do good works? Yes, for sure! But our good works have nothing to do with whether we go to heaven.

Our Bible verses say. For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. Ephesians 2:8&9 NIV

It can't be any clearer than this. It is by grace through faith in what Jesus has done for us that we will go to heaven. It's God's gift! It has nothing to do with our good works. There is nothing we do that we can boast about.

Only Faith In Jesus Will Get You To Heaven.
