Our background photo today features a lovely shiny gate with a keypad. Many people think that as long as they get the correct combination entered into the keypad, then the gateway to Heaven will open … right?? All that is needed is the correct combination of good deeds, moral living, prayer, fasting, giving to the needy, etc. …
The truth is, there is no combination you can enter into the keypad which will open the gate to Heaven. None.
Have you ever sat at a gate trying in vain to enter the correct combination into the keypad? But to no avail. The gate will not open.
We could spend our entire lives trying to enter the correct combination into the keypad … but still, the gateway to Heaven will not open!
This is because you have the wrong gate!
“But,” you might be wondering, “I thought all roads lead to Heaven. Surely all religions are basically the same, right??” No … all religions are not basically the same. All roads do not lead to Heaven. If you find yourself standing outside a shiny gate trying to enter the correct combination into the keypad, then you have the wrong gate!
The gateway to Heaven has already been opened! The gateway to Heaven is standing wide open! The gateway to Heaven is Jesus Christ!
All you need to do is believe in Jesus Christ and accept that He has opened the gateway to Heaven for you. Believe in Jesus Christ … and pass freely through the gateway to Heaven!
Acts 4:10-12 – “It is by the name of Jesus Christ, who was crucified but whom God raised from the dead … Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.”
Jesus Christ is the one and only way to Heaven!
Jesus is the Gateway to Heaven!
