When witnessing frequent disasters in the last days, are you anxiously waiting for the Lord to come soon, rapture you into the kingdom of heaven and save you from the suffering? Then did you know the condition for entering the heavenly kingdom? Perhaps you will say that as long as we have good behavior such as reading the Bible more, helping the poor, and staying away from bad things, we are able to enter the kingdom of heaven. But did you know? The Lord Jesus never said that those who have good behavior could enter the kingdom of heaven. Instead, He said, “Whoever commits sin is the servant of sin. And the servant stays not in the house for ever: but the son stays ever.” (John 8:34–35)And 1 Peter 1:16 says, “Be you holy; for I am holy.”
Also, God’s words say, “A sinner such as you, who has just been redeemed, and has not been changed, or been perfected by God, can you be after God’s heart? For you, you who are still of your old self, it is true that you were saved by Jesus, and that you are not counted as a sinner because of the salvation of God, but this does not prove that you are not sinful, and are not impure. How can you be saintly if you have not been changed? Within, you are beset by impurity, selfish and mean, yet you still wish to descend with Jesus—you should be so lucky! You have missed a step in your belief in God: You have merely been redeemed, but you have not been changed. For you to be after God’s heart, God must personally do the work of changing and cleansing you; if you are only redeemed, you will be incapable of attaining sanctity. In this way you will be unqualified to share in the good blessings of God, for you have missed out a step in God’s work of managing man, which is the key step of changing and perfecting. You, a sinner who has just been redeemed, are therefore incapable of directly inheriting God’s inheritance.”
Clearly, God is holy, and only those who have their sins purified can enter the kingdom of heaven. Hearing this, are you eager to know how to be purified of sins? Finding this path is quite crucial, for it is directly related to whether we can get into God’s kingdom.
