You often heard it say it today that you don’t have to go to church or acknowledge Christ but if you’re a good person you will go to heaven. Christ definitely wants all people to go to heaven, that’s why he died, but for all of us, good or bad alike, we have to acknowledge that we are sinners, and do his will. No matter how good we are, we still fall short. Heaven can’t be earned it’s only offered to us all by God’s mercy, we can only except it, not earn it.
