What do you believe?

There's too many people trying to live by what they believe are "the rules", because they believe that by living a "good life" and being "good", they shall be loved and accepted by God. However, God's love is unconditional. That is, he loves us no matter who we are or how many mistakes we have made, and his love and salvation are not dependent upon our performance. The Bible says good works never gets anyone to heaven because it's not works that get us there, but God's grace and forgiveness of our sins. Grace is unearned favor from God. He has made salvation very simple for us although it cost him his life. He said whoever comes to me and wants to be rescued from the condemnation that sin placed on all of us, and wants to have their sins forgiven, all they have to do is ask me and I will forgive them. God knows a repentant heart and those who are just playing games. When we go to God with a repentant heart and are truly sorry for our sins, he knows when we are telling him the truth and he is faithful to forgive us and give us eternal life in heaven. The Bible says not one person can earn their way to Heaven by good works. We do not save ourselves. It is Jesus that saves our soul. If we want to see our Heavenly Father and live with Him in heaven, then we must access Him through His son, Jesus Christ, who forgives our sins, making us ready for heaven. Jesus said there's no other way. Jesus said you can try it another way but it won't work.
