HOW DO YOU KNOW FOR SURE THAT YOUR GOING TO HEAVEN?
In II Corinthians 4:3-4 the Apostle Paul tells us that Satan has the power to hide the Gospel of salvation, as he can blind them who believe not.
In II Corinthians 13:5 Paul tells us to “Examine ourselves whether we are in the faith; and whether Jesus Christ is in you.”
The Apostle Paul gives very clear instructions on this subject of becoming a believer. In fact he warns mankind that his instruction are the only way to get to heaven. We find that warning in Galatians 1:6-9
Paul also tells us that lost mankind in this Church Age will be judged by his Gospel of salvation? Romans 2:16
So what is Paul’s Gospel of salvation? Paul tells us what we must believe in our heart for our salvation. We find those instructions in several of the Scriptures Paul wrote. All contain the same instructions. All center around the death, burial, and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ!
For example he tells us in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 that we must believe for salvation that-”Jesus died for our sins, was buried and rose again.” In Romans 10:9-10Paul tells us “If we confess with our mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in our heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, then we shall be saved.”
Paul tells us basically the same thing for the qualification to someday meet the Lord in the air when He comes for the true Church believers to take them to heaven. I Thessalonians 4:14-17 says: “For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again,…” Then we too will rise to meet the Lord in the air with our new body which we will receive at that time. This is a free gift from God to mankind. Ephesians 2:8-9
Over and over those are the Apostle Paul’s instructions for salvation. All the things that most think are required for salvation are not included in Paul’s instructions he received from the risen Lord. However that does not stop mankind from trying to add things to the Lord’s instruction that He gave Paul. There is absolutely no works for salvation, it is Faith + Nothing – Romans 4:5 says – “But to him who not work, but believes on him that justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness .”
So if you haven’t followed those instructions in prayer to God, I pray that you will before it’s too late. Remember if you’re serious with God, He’ll be serious with you.
