Jesus tells us how to enter in


Joan Boney ... apostle/prophet

Jesus says:

Matthew 7:13-14    Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

*****

You can't go just any way and say "Jesus is Lord and I am a Christian", and be saved.

For if you go a way of fornication, adultery, homosexuality, drunkenness and other ways of the flesh, Jesus is not your Lord for you go opposite to Jesus, The Word.

So many churches today accept sin in the congregation.  

Jesus told the woman taken in adultery:  "Go, and sin no more."  John 8:11

To continue in sin denies Jesus, the Word.

The apostle Paul warned the church as follows:

I Corinthians 6:9-10    Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate (homosexuals), nor abusers of themselves with mankind,  Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.


*****

Do not be deceived by today's church groups where sin is excused and everyone approved in the continuation of sin under the guise of love.

In Bible we see that we love God when we keep HIS commandments.

I John 2:3-5    And hereby we do know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments.  He that saith, I know Him, and keepeth not His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
But whoso keepeth His word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in Him.

So Jesus says:

*   Enter ye in at the strait gate

Matthew 5:32   But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.


I Corinthians 7:10-11    And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband:  But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.


I Corinthians 7:2    to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.


Romans 1:26-28    concerning homosexuals and lesbians ...  For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.  And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;


Galatians 5:19-21   concerning drunkenness and other works of the flesh ... Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

(Drunkenness is not a disease but is a sin ... a work of the flesh of man.)


*****

You are not going to be able to go against the Word of God in these matters and inherit the kingdom of God.

You cannot continue in sins of the flesh for to do such denies the blood of Christ which redeemed us from the sins of the flesh.


*****

And neither do we approve them in their sins but rather we share the fact that the Bible teaches us these things are "sins" of the flesh and we tell them to repent from these sins and do them no more just as Jesus told us.

If you really belong to God, you will not continue in sins of the flesh.
