You cannot make it to Heaven on a healing

   The world is quick to go to the preachers whom God is using to pour out His
Spirit in manifestations of healing.. but just because a person gets a healing
from God doesn't qualify them for Heaven.  Even belief in Jesus and confession
of His Sonship unto God to receive His salvation only begins the process.
Only a person who believes in Jesus, confesses His Sonship, *and* who lives
out a life which is faithful in bearing the cross God gave to them will be
rewarded with eternity in God's Kingdom under Christ.  The world, however, is
much more interested in going to churches that preach that Jesus is more than
God's Son.. somehow being actually the same person *as* His Father.. God.. and
which preach that the use of military and police-enforced might to imprison or
execute the criminals of our world is totally warranted, even though Jesus
told His disciples to "resist not evil."  Mankind is far more interested in
living under a "Gospel" which doesn't require total surrender to seeking one's
own happiness via becoming a "living sacrifice".. someone who is "always
bearing about in the flesh the dying of the Lord Jesus".. which, alone, is the
way unto eternity without anymore pain.  Only if a person suffers *with*
Christ can they lay claim to the glory which God promises alongside Christ.
Suffering with Jesus is one of the true marks of being a real Christian.  Yet
this world is so full of people who will claim they are Christian, but who
advocate the use of force against the very people whom Jesus called us to
love.  Yes, Jesus calls us to love our fellow Christians in the same way He
loved the apostles during His time on Earth.. and that this would be the mark
which would distinguish us as belonging to Him.. but real love doesn't just
hang out and let people use deadly force against the very people Jesus died
for without even a peep of disagreement.  Jesus laid His life down.. and we
who claim to be His must do the same.. not seeking to simply enjoy our own
lives, but pouring out our lives sacrificially.. daring to die so that others
might live.
