Question

What do you think is the way that the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob has given us to get to heaven?

Answer 1

Either by completely and perfectly keeping the law, down to the most minute and obscure part of it (no one can do it),

OR the better way of Jesus the Christ receiving on our behalf the punishment due us for NOT keeping the law.

Answer 2

There is no reason to even debate this. There is only one answer. Jesus Christ, or Yeshua , or Sar Shalom, Prince of Peace, Kinsman Redeemer,

no matter what you call Him..it all comes out the same. The ONLY way to Heaven is to 1. admit  that one is lost , 2. acknowledge that Jesus is GOD'S Son and that He died on the Cross for our sins. 3. to accept this free gift of mercy and grace and walk in it. This is the ONLY bridge to Heaven. Truth is not subject to whether all believe it..it is simply the truth because it is.  

Answer 3

Didn't Jesus say He was the only way?

Answer 4

In the New Testament the way to heaven is stated with fullness and clarity. Said the Messiah when on earth (John 14:6): "1 am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by me." And again (John 10:9): "I am the door; by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and go out, and shall find pasture."

It is still true that the way of the Cross leads home. It is the only way. The words of the Apostle Peter to the Sanhedrin in Jerusalem long ago are still applicable today: "And in none other (than the Messiah.) is there salvation: for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, wherein we must be saved."

Answer 5

Read Hebrews 11, especially verse 6.

Answer 6

Rom 5:1   Therefore, since we have been made right in God's sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us.  

Rom 5:2   Because of our faith, Christ has brought us into this place of highest privilege where we now stand, and we confidently and joyfully look forward to sharing God's glory.  

Rom 5:3   We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they are good for us-they help us learn to endure.  

Rom 5:4   And endurance develops strength of character in us, and character strengthens our confident expectation of salvation.  

Rom 5:5   And this expectation will not disappoint us. For we know how dearly God loves us, because he has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with his love.  

Rom 5:6   When we were utterly helpless, Christ came at just the right time and died for us sinners.  

Rom 5:7   Now, no one is likely to die for a good person, though someone might be willing to die for a person who is especially good.  

Rom 5:8   But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners.  

Rom 5:9   And since we have been made right in God's sight by the blood of Christ, he will certainly save us from God's judgment.  

Rom 5:10   For since we were restored to friendship with God by the death of his Son while we were still his enemies, we will certainly be delivered from eternal punishment by his life.  

Rom 5:11   So now we can rejoice in our wonderful new relationship with God-all because of what our Lord Jesus Christ has done for us in making us friends of God.  

Rom 5:12   When Adam sinned, sin entered the entire human race. Adam's sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned.  

Rom 5:13   Yes, people sinned even before the law was given. And though there was no law to break, since it had not yet been given,  

Rom 5:14   they all died anyway-even though they did not disobey an explicit commandment of God, as Adam did. What a contrast between Adam and Christ, who was yet to come!  

Rom 5:15   And what a difference between our sin and God's generous gift of forgiveness. For this one man, Adam, brought death to many through his sin. But this other man, Jesus Christ, brought forgiveness to many through God's bountiful gift.  

Rom 5:16   And the result of God's gracious gift is very different from the result of that one man's sin. For Adam's sin led to condemnation, but we have the free gift of being accepted by God, even though we are guilty of many sins.  

Rom 5:17   The sin of this one man, Adam, caused death to rule over us, but all who receive God's wonderful, gracious gift of righteousness will live in triumph over sin and death through this one man, Jesus Christ.  

Rom 5:18   Yes, Adam's one sin brought condemnation upon everyone, but Christ's one act of righteousness makes all people right in God's sight and gives them life.  

Rom 5:19   Because one person disobeyed God, many people became sinners. But because one other person obeyed God, many people will be made right in God's sight.  

Rom 5:20   God's law was given so that all people could see how sinful they were. But as people sinned more and more, God's wonderful kindness became more abundant.  

Rom 5:21   So just as sin ruled over all people and brought them to death, now God's wonderful kindness rules instead, giving us right standing with God and resulting in eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.  

Answer 7

hmmm depends on what religion. If you mean you're Jewish you need a blood sacrifice of animals for sins, but that time has passed. In Christianity Jesus died as the blood sacrifice and you need to ask him to forgive your sins. Jesus is the only way to Heaven.

Answer 8

God told Abraham that by his seed, all the nations of the world would be blessed... not by his "seeds" but by his seed, referring to one descendant, Jesus Christ, Messiah.  There is salvation in no other.

Since righteousness was credited to Abraham as a result of his believing God, that is to say, his faith in what God had promised, we are saved, granted access to heaven by our faith in what God has promised, (salvation by Abraham's descendant, Jesus Messiah).

Answer 9

Through accepting the shed blood of Jesus Christ for redemption of our sins!

Answer 10

Perfect Sunshine!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 11

Obviously it's "the more excellent way" of three ways;

especially if only the greatest of three things never fails.

1. Broad Way... leads to destruction, by draw back

2. Narrow Way... leadeth to life, but only by go on

3. More Excellent Way... Charity thinketh no evil

BroadWay<-->NarrowWay-->MoreExcellentW...

Many<-->Many/Few-->All is neither Many nor Few

DrawBack<-->DrawBack/GoOn-->Unto Perfection

Them(Adam)<-->Them1/Them2-->Us-ward

TheirPart<--TheirPart/YourPart-->No Part-iality

1Cor 11:15<-->1Peter 4:14-->Romans 2:11

When perfect-ion comes, parti-iality is done away: 1Cor 13:10
