Making Heaven by djoguns: 5:40pm On May 05, 2018
On his kneels , crying, sobbing profusely, the pastor is emotionally overwhelmed himself, after preaching a message of 'guilt and condemnation' at the church congregation. He lamented that the stakes of heaven are too high, and he was not even sure of making heaven himself. According to him The Lord had rebuked him in a dream that no one was fit for heaven in his church, including himself. They all wept, cried aloud, wailed, groaned, moaned in anguish, shouted, and were all left very discouraged.

Doesn't this scenario look familiar to you? Just in case it does not look familiar to you, it is something I have seen so often. Most pastors are not sure they can 'make heaven'. Let me ask you boldly, can you make heaven? Most Christians are terribly indoctrinated that heaven is not easy to 'make'. Glib uncertainties, confusing statements of shrouded doubts, unbelief, fears, frights, anxieties, becloud any benefits to be possibly spiritually derived from church sermons. The stakes are high, and heaven is difficult, and complicated a place to gain or ever get to.[color=#006600][/color]

This is true outside of Christ, but for the man in Christ, heaven is not a goal, but an attainment. We have been delivered from the kingdom of darkness, and translated into the kingdom of God, col. 1:13. Christ is able to confirm you unto the end I cor 1:8, keep you from falling and present you faultless before the presence of his eternal glory with everlasting joy, Jude 24. He is able to save to the uttermost heb7:25: lose no one that the Father has given unto him....Stop crying pastor....are you born again? Cry no more church person...are you a member of the kingdom of God?
