How to be guaranteed heaven?
________________________________________________
Luke 16:22-23 “the rich man also died, and was buried; and in hell he lift up his eyes”
=> Once we physically die&open our eyes;
=> It's instantly either heaven or hell.
________________________________________________
2 Chronicles 6:36 “there is no man which sinneth not”
Ecclesiastes 7:20 “there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not”
Romans 3:12 “there is none that doeth good, no, not one”
Romans 3:4 “let God be true, but every man a liar”
Revelation 21:8 “all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire”
Revelation 20:10 “tormented day and night for ever and ever”
=> We all deserve hell.
________________________________________________
Mark 1:1 “Jesus Christ, the Son of God;”
1 Corinthians 8:6 “there is but one God, the Father”
Hebrews 1:1 “God (...) spake”
Hebrews 1:8 “unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever”
1 Timothy 3:16 “great is the mystery of godliness”
=> God is Jesus.
________________________________________________
Luke 1:34 “Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?”
Luke 1:35 “the angel answered (...) therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.”
1 Timothy 3:16 “God was manifest in the flesh”
1 Corinthians 15:3 “Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;”
1 Corinthians 15:4 “And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:”
Because he loves us Jesus the Creator did the following 2000 years ago:
=> He was miraculously physically born of a virgin&became a Son.
=> Because he is perfect he received hate&died crucified.
=> By his resurrection he paid for our sins.
________________________________________________
John 11:25 “Jesus said”
John 11:26 “whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die”
John 6:47 “He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.”
Galatians 3:26 “ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus”
Hebrews 12:6 “whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth”
The instant you chose to believe; your soul now has unlosable everlasting life:
=> You are now a child of God immune from hell forever guaranteed heaven.
No matter what sins you commit afterward&no matter what happens.
=> However until you go to heaven God will scourge you here during your temporarily earthly life.
Depending on the severity of your sins he can completely ruin your life&make it a nightmare here.
________________________________________________
1 John 5:11 “God hath given to us eternal life”
John 3:18 “he that believeth not is condemned already”
=> If you have not believed yet that Jesus has given to you unlosable eternal life: You are guaranteed hell.
=> Unless you repent from your unbelief.

How to be guaranteed heaven?
"I believe that God is Jesus&that by his resurrection he saved me from what I deserve&gave me unlosable eternal life."
Anyone who has ever believed this once is guaranteed heaven.

If anyone here is not absolutely sure of being 100% guaranteed heaven;
Please watch 1 of these 2 youtube videos with an open heart (by copy pasting the titles on youtube):
=> “directions to heaven whole armour ministries” (25min)
=> “the bible way to heaven sanderson1611” (7min)
*If you have read this thread&watched these videos and your conclusion is you believe that the truth is something else than this: I beg you to please believe that this is the truth, and that you then instantly go back to believing your previous belief.

Yes its unfortunate that Anderson was represented here .

I agree ' Once saved ,stay saved '

"After God gave me the Holy Spirit, I found proof that TV, movies, novels, music, video games and computer games are all sins, except Christian stuff"
Read 10 commandments.

Missing the entire Hades vs Lake of Fire distinction.

1 John 5:11 - And the testimony is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12 He who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have the life. 13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.

According to my understanding of Heg 9:27, When you are born again, you die to sin, which is called the first death. God does not chasten (judge) those that are not his born again children while they live their lives here on earth, but will Judge them at the last day and send them to hell, which is the second death. God's children are chastened/judged as they sojourn here in this world, but will not be judged at the last day, or taste of the second death, but will be told to enter into heaven, thou good and faithful servant.

When we are born again, we are actually reborn in the Light. When we who are to do so, die, we return to that Light, our Father.

We are children of Light because of the cross, Jesus, Yeshua..

When we return to the Light we will see God, not blinded by the Light but able to see within It.

Be careful with Scriptural interpretation: These verses do not say that anyone who has ever believed at a point in time is guaranteed heaven. They give the simple truth that the person who is believing in Jesus has everlasting life. PTL!

Praise the Lord! I am 100% sure that if I die right now I will go to heaven! Why? Because I believe in Jesus Christ and his death and his resurrection! But there is much more than heaven - there is life (zoe) now and a victorious life living above sin! Hallelujah!

@Dino246 Hi, thank you!
Luke 16:22 “the beggar died, and was carried by the angels”
Instantly after dying: carried.
=> Once we physically die;
=> We're instantly carried to either heaven or hell.


"I believe Jesus is God but God is not Jesus."
That is an irrational belief.


For text presentation it's for the most part depending on the intended emphasis distribution for points made that I in such manner use hard lines instead of blank spaces precisely for better visual result. And my choices in the amount of colors&size usage&whatnot they were specifically thought through for this result of preventing everything from looking of equal importance.
Our opinions visibly strongly disagree on that haha


I'm not directing people to preachers here.
I'm directing people to 2 very specific videos of preaching.
Discrediting a source doesn't discredit its information.
(saying that it does is an ad hominem logical fallacy)

@Jocund Hi man.
Revelation 20:14 “And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire.”
Whatever goes in hades ends up in the lake of fire.

@Chester Hi!
John 10:28 “I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish”
=> God says those who have received eternal life can never perish. (it's unlosable)
=> Possession of eternal life can never be lost.
1 John 5:11 “God hath given to us eternal life”
John 3:18 “he that believeth not is condemned already”
If you have not believed yet that God has given to you unlosable eternal life, you are guaranteed hell.
Unless you repent from your unbelief.

@mailmandan Amen.

@JaumeJ Well said.

Using a disreputable source discredits your argument.

A horse is an animal; an animal is not (necessarily) a horse. My belief is not irrational.

You are still inserting “instantly” where it does not exist in the text. That’s a non sequitur, and your conclusion is without any basis.

Hail, friend. Which passages lead you to this conclusion? The line right before Rev 20:14 explains that the dead are delivered out of hell (Hades) before it is cast into the Lake of Fire.

"And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire." - Revelation 20:13-15 KJV

Hi, Matthew KJV,

Several things here:
(1) I like your enthusiasm for the Gospel and for God's Kingdom and to get people saved
(2) Please be careful in Biblical interpretation: Always look at to whom the promise is given. John 10:27 talks of the sheep who are hearing God's voice, whom God knows, and who are following Him. John 10:28 gives a wonderful promise to these sheep: God gives them eternal life and they will not perish. (This promise is not for unbelievers who are not believing in Christ)
(3) I think this is the first time on CC that someone has told me that I am guaranteed hell because I do not agree with their theology! (But that is OK - I still know whom I have believed and know that my faith in His death and resurrection give to me eternal life! PTL)

Chester

So I am wondering where this is found in the Bible? If it is true, I am in deep deep trouble!

I thought our belief was to be in the finished work of Jesus' death and resurrection!? But here we have a statement that makes eternal life dependent upon acceptance of doctrine?

@Dino246
"ad hominem" (google | txstate.edu)
"This fallacy occurs when, instead of addressing someone's argument or position, you irrelevantly attack the person or some aspect of the person who is making the argument."


"I believe a horse is an animal but an animal is not a horse. That is not an irrational belief."
That is correct: because there's not only one horse&there's not only one animal.
There's only one Jesus&there's only one God.
"I believe Jesus is God but God is not Jesus."
That is an irrational belief.


Luke 16:22 “died, and was carried by the angels”
Concluding that we are not carried by the angels instantly after dying is unreasonable.
"I believe that when someone dies his soul is left there for a period of time until he is eventually carried."
That's an absurd conclusion from that verse but either way the point is that once we physically die it's either heaven or hell, and we both say that!
________________________________________________
@Jocund
Luke 16:22-23 “died, and was buried; and in hell he lift up his eyes” Luke 16:24 “tormented in this flame”
Those who are in hades are dead.
John 11:26 “whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die”
=> Believing in the Lord to receive eternal life is for those who are not dead yet.
=> For those who are dead that promise doesn't apply. It's too late for them.
Hell delivers up the dead to be judged&cast in the lake of fire.

@Chester
Yes in John 10:28 God says that the possession of eternal life which his sheep have can never be lost.
(unlosable eternal life)
That is a correct reiteration, however:
=> The idea that God gives unlosable eternal life to some people but yet gives losable eternal life to other people is unbiblical;
John 11:26 “whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die”
I sincerely beg you man to believe even just for a second that unbelief cannot make you lose eternal life.
Just for a second, you can then instantly go back to believing your previous belief.

You are missing the very important context of the line immediately before John 11:26.

"Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?" - John 11:25-26 KJV

Your premise is not supported by scripture. Scripture says the opposite of what you have proposed.

John 3:36
He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
