Do you think God can be bought off?
God, the creator, that made all things?
I think not!
Ephesians 2:8-9
For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
Matthew 7:21
"Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
John 14:6
Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Acts 8:18-23
Now when Simon saw that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles' hands, he offered them money, saying, "Give me this power also, so that anyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit." But Peter said to him, "May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of God with money! You have neither part nor lot in this matter, for your heart is not right before God. Repent, therefore, of this wickedness of yours, and pray to the Lord that, if possible, the intent of your heart may be forgiven you.
As you see, its not what you do but your belief and your salvation from SIN that gets you closer to our Lord and Saviour!
Christ didnt die so that the wealthy could bypass his saving grace to enter heaven! He died for all that believe and recieve him as the Saviour and Son of God to recieve grace upon the world and everlasting life with the Father!
I believe, do you?
