"I'm basically a good person, so I'll go to heaven." "OK, so I do some bad things, but I do more good things, so I'll go to heaven." "God won't send me to hell just because I don't live by the Bible. Times have changed!" "Only really bad people like child molesters and murderers go to hell."

Many don't like it when someone quotes the Bible to make a point. Others don't like it when you make a point without quoting the Bible. Yet others wonder what's the point?
I haven't always believed in Jesus Christ, but since the day that He revealed Himself to me I have no choice in the matter, my choices are now limited to my obedience to Him. I had a guy tell me how tragic his life was... and if God loved him that he would have done something to help. I couldn't argue with him, instead I agreed... but apologized that since my life had been changed, I could yet not deny that God was real.
My belief is not based on how good or fair I see God to be, on the contrary, I have quite the problem with the way He does things and what we have to go through some times... it seems the more I am challenged by "God's way" finding Him unmanupulated and unmoved by my tantrums... I find Him worthy of respect and honor. However, I can say He has answered my every prayer... not always to the affirmative, but a definite answer that I can know it is Him answering.
The only thing I can say is invite the Lord of the Universe into your life and find out for yourself, what millions have found... the answer! You may have not even thought you had a question until you found the answer in Jesus Christ.
Let me know how it turns out... I want to know if you are the exception.
"One way, one way to Heaven
Hold up high your hand
Follow, free and forgiven
Children of the Lamb
Two roads diverged in the middle of my life
I heard the wise man say
I took the one less traveled by
And that's made the difference, every night and every day
So I say one way, one way to Heaven
Hold your head up high
One way, free and forgiven
Children of the sky..." -Larry Norman
