All Roads Lead to Heaven

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 books were opened.

Another book was opened, which is the book of life. …

If anyone's name was not found written in the book of life,

     he was thrown into the lake of fire.                                          

                                                                                       Revelation 20:11-12, 15

All roads lead to heaven. 

So, if your faith and obedience is in Christ Jesus or not you will be in heaven.

You will find yourself standing in the throne room of God.

More is revealed in verses 13b-15, The Message paraphrase relates it like this:  “Each man and woman was judged by the way he or she had lived. Then Death and Hell were hurled into Lake Fire. This is the second death — Lake Fire.  Anyone whose name was not found inscribed in the Book of Life was hurled into Lake Fire.”

How long will you be in heaven?

§         Will it be a short time, just enough time for judgment? 

§         Will your time be eternal?

Is your name written with Christ’s blood in the Book of Life?

Or are you merely listed in one of the books to be forgotten, full of meaningless deeds.

All roads lead to heaven … how long will you be in heaven?

Jesus said, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.  If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well” (John 14:6-7).
