This is everything you need to know on how to get to Heaven.
The Good, the Bad, and the Fearedful things, that are connected to Jesus, and the Gospel according to God’s Holy Word.

Law
Romans 3:20
20 For of the works (doing good things) of the law each flesh shall not be justified (to get to Heaven) before him; for by the law there is knowing of sin.
Galatians 3:24
24 And so the law was our under-master (teacher) in Christ (to lead us to Christ), that we be justified of belief (in Jesus, and His Gospel).
(Some Law’s)
Romans 13:9
9 For, Thou shalt do no lechery, Thou shalt not slay, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not say false witnessing, Thou shalt not covet the thing of thy neighbour, and if there be any other commandment, it is enstored, or included, in this word, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Leviticus 19:11
11 Ye shall not do theft. Ye shall not lie, and no man deceive his neighbour.
(People naturally think you have to live a good life to get to Heaven, but the first step is to realize that you are wrong, and that God is right, for His Ways are higher than our ways, therefore you must humble yourself as a little child before God.)
Humble as a Child
Luke 18:9-14 and 17
9 And he said also to some men, that trusted in themselves (to get to Heaven), as they were rightful, and despised others, this parable, saying,
10 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.
11 And the Pharisee stood, and prayed by himself these things, and said, God, I do thankings to thee, for I am not as other men, raveners, unjust, adulterers, as also this publican;
12 I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all things that I have in possession.
13 And the publican stood afar, and would not raise his eyes to heaven, but smote his breast, and said, God be merciful to me, sinner.
14 Truly I say to you, this went down into his house, and was justified from the other. For each that enhanceth himself, shall be made low, and he that meeketh himself, shall be enhanced.
17 Truly I say to you, whoever shall not take the kingdom of God as a child, he shall not enter into it.
Sin
Romans 3:23
23 For all men sinned, and have need to the glory of God;
Romans 6:23
23 For the wages of sin is death; the grace of God is everlasting life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Punishment for our Sins
Revelation 21:7-8
7 He that shall overcome (the world), shall wield these things (referring to Heaven); and I shall be God to him, and he shall be son to me.
8 But to fearedful men, and unbelieveful (to the Gospel), and cursed, and man-quellers (murderers), and fornicators, and to witches, and to worshippers of idols, and to all liars (everyone has told at least (1) lie before, thus getting everyone, for all have sinned), the part of them shall be in the pool burning with fire and brimstone, that is the second death.
Matthew 25:46
46 And these shall go into everlasting torment (Hell); but the just men (justified by belief) shall go into everlasting life (Heaven).
Jesus’s Payment of Sin
Galatians 1:4
4 that gave himself (Jesus the Christ) for our sins (He paid the punishment of our sins for us), to deliver us from the present wicked world, by the will of God and our Father,
Galatians 3:13
13 But Christ again-bought us from the curse of the law, and was made accursed (took our sins) for us; for it is written, Each man is cursed that hangeth in the tree (or the cross);
Acts 2:31
31 he seeing afar spake of the resurrection of Christ, for neither he was left in hell (He when to Hell three days and three nights, after dying on the cross, to pay for our sins), neither his flesh saw corruption (since He rose again, His flesh didn’t have time to decay or corrupt).
Believe
John 3:15-18
15 that each man that believeth in him (Jesus), perish not (to Hell), but have everlasting life (in Heaven).
16 For God loved so the world, that he gave his one begotten Son, that each man that believeth in him perish not, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world, that he judge the world, but that the world be saved by him.
18 He that believeth in him, is not deemed (not judged for your sins in Hell); but he that believeth not, is now deemed (now judged for your sins), for he believeth not in the name of the one begotten Son of God (and therefor the only hope and chance is gone to avoid going to Hell).
The Gospel
1 Corinthians 15:1-4
1 Soothly, brethren, I make the gospel known to you, which I have preached to you, which also ye have taken, in which ye stand,
2 by which also ye shall be saved (from Hell); by which reason I have preached to you, if ye hold, if ye have not believed idly (not at all).
3 For I betook to you at the beginning that thing which also I have received (as a gift); that Christ was dead for our sins (Trust that He paid for our sins), by the scriptures;
4 and that he was buried, and that he rose again in the third day, after scriptures;
The Holy Ghost of Promise
Ephesians 1:13
13 In whom also ye were called (to get invited to go to Heaven when you die), when ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your health (spiritually), in whom ye believing be marked with the Holy Ghost of promise,
The Promise
1 John 2:25
25 And this is the promise, that he promised to us everlasting life.
2 Timothy 1:1
1 Paul, apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, by the promise of life that is in Christ Jesus,
Only Way
John 14:6
6 Jesus saith to him, I am way, truth, and life; no man cometh to the Father (in Heaven), but by me.
Jesus is God Too
John 1:1 and 14
1 In the beginning was the word, and the word was at God, and God was the word.
14 And the word was made man, and dwelled among us, and we have seen the glory of him, as the glory of the one begotten Son of the Father, full of grace and of truth.
It is a Everlasting Gift
Ephesians 2:8-9
8 For by grace (getting something you don’t deserve, for all have sinned and have need of the glory of God) ye be saved by faith (faithful trust), and this not of you; for it is the gift of God,
9 not of works (doing good things), that no man have glory (in Heaven, which trust in themselves).
Not By Works of our Rightwiseness
Titus 3:5-7
5 not of works of rightwiseness that we did (not us keeping the law and doing good things), but by his mercy he made us safe (from the second death), by washing of again-begetting, and again-newing of the Holy Ghost,
6 whom he shedded into us plenteously by Jesus Christ, our Saviour,
7 that we justified (to get to Heaven when we die) by his grace, be heirs by hope of everlasting life.
Do Good because you love Jesus, not to get to Heaven.
John 14:23
23 Jesus answered, and said to him, If any man loveth me, he shall keep my word.
(Do good things and keep the Law because you love Jesus, God, not because you are trying to get to Heaven.)
For Jesus Loves us
John 15:13
13 (Jesus said) No man hath more love than this, that a man put his life for his friends.
Summarized, and call inwardly with your emotions to the Lord Jesus Christ in Heaven.
Romans 10:3-13
3 For they not knowing God's rightwiseness, and seeking to make steadfast their own rightwiseness (trying to get to Heaven themselves), be not subject to the rightwiseness of God.
4 For the end of the law is Christ, to rightwiseness to each man that believeth.
5 For Moses wrote, For the man that shall do rightwiseness that is of the law, shall live in it.
6 But the rightwiseness that is of belief, saith thus, Say thou not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? that is to say, to lead down Christ;
7 or who shall go down into hell? that is, to again-call Christ from death.
8 But what saith the scripture? The word is nigh in thy mouth, and in thine heart; this is the word of belief, which we preach.
9 That if thou acknowledge in thy mouth the Lord Jesus Christ (out loud to the Lord), and believest in thine heart, that God raised him from death (the end of the Gospel, meaning you believe it all), thou shalt be safe (from Hell).
10 For by heart me believeth to rightwiseness, but by mouth acknowledging is made to health.
11 For why the scripture saith, Each that believeth in him, shall not be confounded (condemned and shamed to Hell).
12 And there is no distinction of Jew and of Greek; for the same Lord of all is rich into all, that inwardly call him.
13 For each man, whoever shall inwardly call the name of the Lord, shall be safe.
(Inwardly (truthfully and meaningfully mean it in your heart), when you say out loud with your mouth and call on the Lord, and say something like “Lord Jesus Christ, please save me”)
No Condemnation to those in Christ Jesus
Romans 8:1
1 Therefore now nothing of condemnation is to them that be in Christ Jesus, which wander not after the flesh (not trusting in the works of the flesh to save them).
(You can’t go to Hell once you have believed and trusted in Jesus Christ and His Gospel and have Acknowledge to Him that you want this gift of everlasting life, you can never lose it for it is a promise by God Himself, and God can not lie)
Most People won’t go to Heaven when they die
Matthew 7:13-14
13 Enter ye by the strait gate (narrow); for the gate that leadeth to perdition (Hell) is large, and the way is broad, and there be many that enter by it.
14 How strait is the gate, and narrow the way, that leadeth to life (everlasting life in Heaven), and there be few that find it.
Don’t be mislead by the Simpleness of Christ
2 Corinthians 11:3
3 But I dread, lest as the serpent (the Devil) deceived Eve (in the Garden) with his subtle fraud, so your wits (minds) be corrupted, and fallen down from the simpleness that is in Christ.
