What is the criteria for going to heaven? The truth is, on this side of heaven, we cannot be perfectly sinless. Therefore, salvation, or going to heaven, is based on our faith in Jesus Christ. It is not based on our works, but on the finished work that Christ accomplished on the cross for sinners.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16
God's love and grace through Jesus Christ, who died on the cross for our sins is what offers eternal life to those who believe. Believing in Jesus grants us the power to become children of God, with the promise of never losing that status. Being born of God is a work of God, not something that can be given back or taken away. True salvation is a transformation that cannot be undone. It’s not just a profession or a label we give ourselves.
That being said, it is important to confess our sins and ask for forgiveness. Asking for forgiveness restores the closeness and intimacy we have with God.
God will remain faithful even when we sin. As Christians, we will go to heaven if we die before asking for forgiveness, based on Christ's work, not our sinful actions.
"Live for God by connecting faith and life."
