A person must be perfect in order to enter heaven.
Psalm 24:3-5 “Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath
clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. He shall
receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.” (KJV)
Psalm 188:20 “This is the gate of the LORD, Through which the righteous shall enter.”
Why?
God is Holy, Righteous, and completely Perfect in every way. God's Holiness is so great that any sin that came
into His presence would be destroyed. You see, God cannot allow a sinner into heaven because it's not
possible. God's Spirit will destroy anything that is unrighteous.
2 Thessalonians 2:8 "And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of
his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:"
Remember Adam and Eve? They chose to forsake the will of God and they committed sin by eating the
forbidden fruit. This corrupted them, and because they were no longer perfect, God had to be separated from
them and He drove them out of the garden of Eden.
You might say, "Well, we're all going to hell then, because nobody is perfect." The first thing you need to
understand is that those who are in Christ are made perfect through Him.
Hebrews 10:14 “For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.”
We are not perfect in the flesh, but only in the spirit, because you receive the Spirit of God.
Ezekiel 36:27 “I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My
judgments and do them.”
Your flesh will remain sinful until you die or are raptured.
1 Corinthians 15:50 “Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor
does corruption inherit incorruption.”
1 Corinthians 15:53 “For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.”
But in order for this to happen, you must have the Spirit of God living inside of you. If you're not sure if you
