Why Jesus?

“Believe in Jesus to go to Heaven” is one catch phrase every evangelists say usually.

Heaven is well known by everyone as the paradise which once someone dies, and also its called “the house in the sky.”

But looking from the Bible’s point of view, it shows what is going on in our lives inside out.

Chicago University’s theology professor Joseph Saddler justifies the heavenly realm as thusly; “The life we earn through God completes the person.” Heaven is not starting after death, but the moment from when we believe Jesus Christ as our savior, and it starts the “Living Heaven”

From the Bible’s view, heaven is to “live and act according to God’s will”. Apostle Paul says this in Romans 14:8, “If we live, we live for the Lord, and if we die, we die for the Lord. So whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.”

Heaven is different from Hell.

Hell is of fear, isolation, insecurities and darkness.

In the view of the Bible, Hell is the life separated from God. So after you die, instead of Hell, we live the life of “purging” our sins as Jesus has said. Those who live Godless life are those who have “eternal punishment” on their back. Heaven and eternal life do not come after death, but today while living in God. “Inside God” is to have a “constant and everlasting love”. “Believe in Jesus to go to Heaven” – and believing in that to open a new path of life in God, instead of after death, the eternity is experienced day to day.

But, just because this starts in the life, all the pain in life isn’t going to go away.

Those who believe in God must be able to withstand the pain of life, and not to give up and be patient – to have a hope and courage beyond what the world has seen, living in positives all the time. Despite any situations in life, by having the peace from Jesus is that person living in the life of eternity.

Jesus said in John 11:25-26 this:

“…Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?”
