Down through the ages, the Bible has very boldly declared that Jesus is the only entrance that God the Father has made for mankind to enter into Heaven.
Let's take a look at three convincing sections of Scripture.
The Father loves the Son and has placed everything in his hands. Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on him.A person must come to the place where they stop trying to work their way to heaven through religion and they simply accept Jesus as their Savior.
(John 3:35-36 NIV)
Thomas said to him, "Lord, we don't know where you are going, so how can we know the way?" Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
(John 14:5-6 NIV)
And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life.
(1 John 5:11-13 NIV)
"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith (and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God) not by works, so that no one can boast" (Eph. 2:8-9 NIV).
