We will all find God by being face-to-face with Him one day, and we'll each have to give an account for our lives. We don't know when that will be, but suppose it were today. Have you come to the place in your spiritual life that you know for certain that you would go to heaven? Or is that something you would say that you're still working on?
The Bible* tells us that we can know for certain. It says, “These things have I written unto you… that ye may know that ye have eternal life” (1 John 5:13).
You may be wondering what the apostle John knew that could make him and his readers so confident. He knew he would someday stand before God. He knew what he would say if God asked him, “Why should I let you into my heaven?”
Do you know what you would say? Think about that question, and then read on to see what the Bible says about eternal life.
* The truth about eternal life is found in the Bible. But how do we know that the Bible is true and reliable? A good resource on that question is here.
