Does everyone who says Lord Lord enter heaven?
Exactly. If you are counting on your ability to not un-earn your way out of Heaven you will be in dire straights. Isaiah 53:11 "He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities." The first "He" is God the Father. The one He is looking at that is in travail is His Son, Jesus Christ. God the Father shall see of the travail of Jesus Christ, His Son, on the Cross, being Judged in our place for the all the sins of men, and God the Father shall be satisfied. His wrath for our sins will be satisfied. Says nothing about "He shall see of the good way that men have lived after believing that Jesus died to save them, and He shall be satisfied" You are still depending on your good works to get to Heaven, therefore you are only half trusting Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2:8-9 " For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." So millions will be singing the Praises of God one day in Heaven, Praise to the Lamb that was slain, who has redeemed us out of every nation and kindred, and trout007 will be off in the corner singing " Praise be to me, because I was able to keep myself from un-earning my way out of Heaven, and now God owes me my place here " and I tell you that angels will fly straightway to where you are and snatch you up and cast you into outer darkness and your boasting will be heard no more in those sacred halls. Isaiah 55:8-13 " For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off." May you cast your every hope of Heaven on Jesus Christ today. Jeremiah 29:13 "And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart."
Why is it that you do not know the speech and thoughts of a truly saved person? salvation is and intimate personal relationship with our Lord. I do not need a Priest to confess to, I walk with Jesus every moment of every day. Listen to the words of of a Christian Hymn
A friend I have called Jesus, Whose love is strong and true, And never fails howe’er ’tis tried, No matter what I do; I sinned against this love of His, But when I knelt to pray, Confessing all my guilt to Him, The sin-clouds rolled away.
Sometimes when clouds of trouble Bedim the sky above, I cannot see my Savior’s face, I doubt His wondrous love; But He, from Heaven’s mercy seat, Beholding my despair, In pity bursts the clouds between, And shows me He is there.
When sorrow’s clouds o’ertake me, And break upon my head, When life seems worse than useless, And I were better dead; I take my grief to Jesus then, Nor do I go in vain, For heav’nly hope He gives that cheers Like sunshine after rain.
Oh, I could sing forever Of Jesus’ love divine, Of all His care and tenderness For this poor life of mine; His love is in and over all, And wind and waves obey When Jesus whispers, “Peace, be still!” And rolls the clouds away.
Jesus wants you to be this close to Him today. Bow your heart to Him today, tell Him that you are a sinner and that you believe that He, and He Alone is able to save you, then thank Him for redeeming you. Serve Him out of love and gratitude for what He has done for you. Not out of fear that you might offend Him some way by your shortcomings, He knows you are made of clay, He knows you will have failures, He loves you unconditionally. Please Lord Jesus, give this person ears to hear and eyes to see who Jesus is in all His Glory and Majesty today.
