For He has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the Kingdom of the Son He loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
Loved ones, I never cease to be in awe of how much our God loves us! I am aware, at least as much as a human can be, when it comes to how…

Self-righteousness doesn’t make us clean in the eyes of God. Only the blood of Jesus washes away sins – to all those who believe (John 3:16). Some people try to do religious activities thinking that will get them to heaven. But it’s impossible to pay a price that’s already been paid – by Jesus’ death on the cross. Rather, holiness (living a righteous life) is the result of salvation – it is the proof that a person is saved.
Therefore, good deeds doesn’t make you qualified for heaven. “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast” (Ephesians 2:8-9). What makes us qualified for heaven (accepted as God’s child), is by accepting Jesus Christ and surrendering everything to Him as Lord and Savior of our life.
I suggest you also read this. And then, once you have accepted Christ as your Lord and Savior of life, read here.
