For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.

I do not contest these words at all but detest what people make of them. It is more than some think because to believe in Jesus Christ the Son of man and The Son of God there are things which will prove that we believe. The fact is that Satan believes in Jesus Christ and hates Him. Satan will not be going to Heaven. So, saying believing in Jesus is grossly misleading. I think the Apostle James in his epistle clears it up nicely. “Show me your works and I’ll show you your faith”. Also he said “Faith without works is dead”. Now please don’t go accusing me of saying works save, they do not. Only the sacred name of Jesus Christ saves and only by His grace is that a possibility. We cannot command God or Jesus to save anybody. There will be a judgement. Your “works” will be judged to have been faithful or not.

All the above is not to say we can’t know if we are or not saved, we know in our heart. I do believe however that there are many who consider themselves to be born again who are not. Saying the words Jesus Christ, or “saying” you believe in Jesus Christ is not a secret admittance to Heaven. What you do in life after professing belief in Jesus Christ will be the proof of your belief.

There will be a judgement. Your “works” will be judged to have been faithful or not.

And THIS is how it's going down:

Exodus 32:32-33
But now, if you will forgive their sin—but if not, please blot me out of your book that you have written.” But the Lord said to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against me, I will blot out of my book.

Daniel 12:1
“At that time shall arise Michael, the great prince who has charge of your people. And there shall be a time of trouble, such as never has been since there was a nation till that time. But at that time your people shall be delivered, everyone whose name shall be found written in the book.

Philippians 4:3
And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellowlabourers, whose names are in the book of life.

Revelation 3:5
He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.

Revelation 13:8
And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

Revelation 17:8
The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.

Revelation 20:11-15
"Then I saw a great White Throne and him who was seated on it. Earth and sky fled from his presence, and there was no place for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and THE BOOKS WERE OPENED. Another book was opened WHICH IS THE BOOK OF LIFE. The dead were judged according to their works as recorded in the books. The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to their works. Then death and Hades were thrown into the Lake of Fire. The Lake of Fire is the second death. If anyone's name was not found written IN THE BOOK OF LIFE, he was thrown into the lake of fire."

Revelation 21:27

Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life.
