Am I Going To Heaven?

Dear and Precious Soul,

Your Creator, The Most High God, in His omniscience and infinite wisdom has brought you here.  He knows your concerns, every worry, every fear.  If it feels like something is off in the world and that things are rapidly “circling the drain,” your feelings are 100% accurate.  We are experiencing the systematic destruction of the world as we know it.    The Beginning of Sorrows, as prophesied in the Holy Scriptures, are upon us.  This dismantling of America and the world is ocurring  from within.

The Good Book says in John 3:19, “And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than the light, because their deeds were evil.”  Consequently, the proverbial “chickens have come home to roost.”  We are beginning to see and experience the repercussions for our actions – individually and as a nation.  God’s judgement is certain and imminent.

Deep down, we know that we are sinful creatures by nature, “walking according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air.”  In fact, our pride and our ego rebels against the very idea that we are all born” children of wrath,” – Ephesians 2:2-3.

 We are all born unregenerate, hostile and in rebellion with God, Our Creator.

Do you consider yourself righteous or good person?  Most of us do, but God states in His Word that, “There is none righteous, no, not one.” –Romans 3:10.   If you read a bit further,  Romans 3:23 states, “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.”

Being born dead – in trespasses and sins – renders us incapable of producing any good or acceptable works of righteousness commendable to God.  In other words, there is absolutely no thing we can do to fix, save or make ourselves righteous by God’s standards.

This leaves us in quite the conundrum.  How will we enter the Kingdom of Heaven when we are born unrighteous?  How will we qualify for heaven when there is absolutely nothing we can do to make ourselves righteous?  The Apostle Paul asks in desperation in Romans 7:24, “O wretched man that I am!  Who shall deliver me from the body of this death!?                                                                                                                         

This is perhaps the most profound and significant question any soul will ever ask.
