Who wants to go to Heaven? I have never met a person who does not want to go to Heaven when their life is over. Jesus said that many are called but few are chosen. My own thoughts about that are, Jesus died for the sins of the whole world. I think that means that the whole is actually called, but who are the few that are chosen? A crude example could be that when 100 people hear the gospel preached and only 5 believe the message and accept Jesus as their personal savior, those are the ones who are chosen. It has been said before that the gospel can be summed up into one word and that word is “guilty”. The bible says that there is not a single person on earth that does not commit sin and there is not a single thing that humans can do to get rid of their sins. The sins that unsaved people commit are in their soul. The Bible says that the soul that sins will die. The problem is that even when a lost person dies, that is not enough to pay the sin debt. When a lost person goes into hell the fire burns inside in the soul where the sin is. The fire does not burn up the person but burns for eternity. Jesus said that is where the soul does not die and the fire is not quenched. By human standard there are many “good” people who will not accept Jesus or listen to the gospel. They are the ones who will cry and gnash their teeth when GOD pronounces their final judgment.
BOTTOM LINE: There is no use kidding ourselves, Jesus is the road to Heaven and no other way has been found………AMEN
