23for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. 25God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement,[a] through faith in his blood.

Answer 5

For the time has come for judgment to begin with the household of God. If it begins first with us, what will happen to those who don't obey the Good News of God?

Jeremiah 25:29 "For behold, I am beginning to work calamity in this city which is called by My name, and shall you be completely free from punishment? You will not be free from punishment; for I am summoning a sword against all the inhabitants of the earth," declares the LORD of hosts.'

Ezekiel 9:6 "Utterly slay old men, young men, maidens, little children, and women, but do not touch any man on whom is the mark; and you shall start from My sanctuary." So they started with the elders who were before the temple.

Amos 3:2 "You only have I chosen among all the families of the earth; Therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities."

Answer 6

The following verse foretells of the first judgment beginning in the house of God.

1 Peter 4:17 - For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

But the keys to heaven as given to Peter are found in the following:

The Law - (The narrow gate)

Mat 5: (17) - "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. (18) - For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled."

The Fall of man - (The wide gate)

Romans 3:23-"for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God"

The Redeemer of man -

Matt 16: 16 - "Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God."

John 3: (16) - For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (17) - For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him (alone) might be saved.

The Redemption of man -

John 3: (18) - He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

And these are the keys to the Kingdom of Heaven.
