There are two choices. We either worship God or self. Those who chose to worship self to the end are lost.
The most perfect worship is the most obedient. The prophets predicted that Jesus would come to earth. They described Him, His birthplace, His activities, His Crucifixion and Resurrection.
Those humble enough to be saved find Three Steps Toward Heaven.
The First Step Toward Heaven: “It is beyond belief that hundreds of prophecies, some of them very specific, could have been an accident. The Dead Sea Scrolls prove that the prophecies were written hundreds and thousands of years before Jesus. They could not have been an intentional, after-the-fact fraud. Therefore, I believe in Jesus.”
Jesus taught clearly, “with authority” not like the scribes. Those who take The Second Step Toward Heaven realize that. They know that true worship entails true obedience. They become aware of many, many groups among the competing 43,000 factions that claim to be “Christian”. The true believer is able to resist human pleading for donations and ask “What Church does Jesus prefer?”
The Third Step Toward Heaven takes the humble to the words of Jesus in Mt. 16: 18-20. “I say unto you thou art Peter and on this rock I build My Church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you The Keys to The Kingdom of Heaven.”
Many will come to The Only Church Jesus Founded. Others will be led into the confusion of the 43,000 competing groups claiming to be “Christian”.
The confusion among Protestants is so great that many searching souls abandon Christianity. Others look above the clouds of conflicting claims and see The Only Church Jesus Founded. It beckons like a shining star and they move toward it.
The saved successfully take Three Steps Toward Heaven.
