One thing Jesus has been doing is teaching us how to enter the kingdom of heaven. No man can go there because of their ways. Jesus taught us how to get away from the mind that destroys us. The New Testament shows so many things. As anyone grows in the Spirit of God by the teaching of Jesus, they will see something beyond words to speak. We will be shown until we become part of God. We will seem like it is us, but soon we will learn it is not us that sees the things we once could not see. The problem with so many is once we start seeing, we will see and not realize we are trying to get the glory that belongs to God. This is a hurdle we must get over, or we can lose what we started out with. Maybe you have been called, and if so, you may have missed a chance because you wanted to hang on to this world, like the parties or just things of this world.
To lie, cheat or steal is not God in action. I think we all know this. It’s the devil that we chose. God doesn’t send us to hell. We go there on our own. Ask the rich man in Luke. He really wanted to tell his brother to not come to where he was. He was there not because he was rich, but maybe he ignored the beggar at his gate.
