Having died myself and crossed over into Heaven, I assure you that Jesus is my Savior not because He died on the cross.

I would much rather die than be here on earth in this cesspool.

Jesus is my Savior as He lowered himself to our level and was not in the flesh to teach us how to grow spiritually. This is why the scripture in 1 John 4 is so powerful.

“This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3 but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God.”

My apologies as spellchecker inserted “not”

Sorry bud, but “without shedding of blood is NO remission.”

Jesus paid fully for your sins, but you have chosen to pay for your own sins by an eternity in Hell. You’ll experience everything Jesus Christ experienced for you on the cross, without any end in sight.

Seven grains of sand in your hand represents a lifetime of seventy years . . . all the deserts combined will tell of the time you will spend in Hell, only to have it repeat again and again every time you make it to the last single grain.

I am sorry.

The mystics of ALL religions - who study the nature of reality rather than apologetic dogma - ALL say the same thing - we are Spirit, we are eternal, Spirit is Love and God is within all of us. God made man in his Image. In Him, we live and move and have our being. If you make your bed in Hell, God is there with you. The Kingdom of Heaven is within you. I and my Father are one.

So why would God allow you to enter Heaven, His abode, without removing your sins through faith in Christ and what He provided at the Cross? Without removal of your sins, you would simply make Heaven a cesspool.
