How Will You Get To Heaven?

Is there more than one way to get to Heaven? Is there more than one religion that is correct in their teaching? Is a little of this, and a little of that okay? What do you believe? This is what I believe: Psalm 57:9-10 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee among the nations. For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.
Quoted
Acts 4:10-12 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Today's Verses - KJV 1 John 5:10-13 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
My Comments
In this generation we are hearing there are many ways to the living God and eternal salvation. Some are even teaching that we will all be saved if we just believe in some god. These claim that it is not important what we call Him, just believe! Beloved, that is not what the Word of God says! Do those who teach that understand they are calling God a liar? All lies the devil tells us have some truth in them to make them sound good! It is the part that is not truth that will cause us to get into error. The early followers of Christ said there was only one way to be saved! His name is Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God. Some will say that is a narrow minded way. Absolutely it is a narrow way, but it is the only way to salvation. Those who are trusting their eternal souls on someone else will miss heaven! Beloved, the gospel has not changed, the Word of God has not changed, contrary to what some say. God has made a way that everyone can be saved, who will believe on the name of His only begotten Son. The earth and the fullness thereof belongs to God and His way is the only way to be saved. When Jesus cried from the cross "It is finished", The Way of salvation was completed. Sin's penalty was paid and everyone who will can receive everlasting life, if they will believe on the Name of The Son of God. That is the good news of the Bible. The life that God The Father offers is in Jesus Christ and in Him alone! Have you received Him? Do you have the witness in yourself that you have? Meditate on it!
Prayer
Father God, Thank You for making a Way that everyone can know You as their Father. Thank You for loving us and giving us Your only begotten Son so in Him we can have eternal life. If any who read this are trusting in someone else for salvation, wake them up to The Truth. We ask, believe we receive, and give thanks in the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

My oldest daughter is a friend of Heather, and Danielle is Heather's older sister. Heather is, so far, the only viable bone marrow donor who is compatible with her sister. While Dr.'s in Gainesville are trying to bring Danielle's strength up to being able to accept the transplant from her sister, the expenses the family has had to endure are mounting.
My daughter, Heather, and several of their friends had a successful car wash today! Thank you, to anyone who stopped and generously gave to help Danielle !
The blog below tells a little bit about Danielle, she is only 22 years old, and she just got married last year.
PLEASE put Danielle on your prayer list. Her situation is extremely grave.
This is part of a blog that Heather, Danielle's younger sister, wrote about her.

THE UPDATE WITH DANIELLE
For everyone one who wants to know the latest on Danielle's Cancer.
She is in Gainsville right now. The latest news from the doctor was not so good. It seems that Danielles cancer is very agressive and resistant to all the different types of chemos she has been given. Shes in a bad situation right now, she needs a bone marrow transplant and I AM A MATCH!!!! however her cancer has to be in remission before the transplant can be done. She has been talking to all the specialist and they seem to be in a tough spot. Since her cancer is resistant to the chemo even the extreme kind. They say that her option now is to do radiation, however the doctor told her that there is a possibility this may not work since raditation is only met for certain areas of the body for example if you have lung cancer you can radiate the lungs. Her cancer is in the Lymph nodes which runs throughout your whole body. They dont think that she is strong enough to handle that kind of treatment because radiation is very extreme on the body. The doctors have been in confrence calls with other doctors all over the country to try and figure out what is the best course of action. Danielle remains in good spirits, we all are. We remain optimistic and hopeful. We are waiting on our miracle. Danielle is in a hotel in gainsville with my mom and is doing all her testing and prep for the radiation which she will start next monday. This weekend she had nothing scheduled so Fred and I and the kids all got a hotel room to be with her Nicole and her family also got a room. Her husband Jason was of course by her side. And Vivienne was also there. We went swimming, out to eat and we talked we watched movies and munched on snacks we cried, we laughed, and we enjoyed our time together. She is my best friend... Please pray for her because she needs everyone prayers right now. Her radiation is going to be for about five weeks and since they are staying in a hotel, it is becoming very expensive with the hotel, food and medicines and their everyday needs.. so we are planning on have a yard sale and will be asking for any donations .. so if anyone would like to help please let me know.... email me, call me. ALL IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!! If you have any other question please feel free to ask..."
My Daily Goal To My Daughters

"Tell them that you love them, Show them that you care, Make them feel they're special, And try to be aware----- If things seem to be different, if somethings just not right. Assure them that you'll save them from the monsters of the night. Listen when they're talking; answer when they ask. Excite in their achievements, take part in every task. Respect them as a person, love them as they are. Teach them to take chances, help them reach the stars. Accept mistakes will happen, and learn from what goes wrong. With trust and communication, relationships stay strong. Encourage love to others, but first comes self esteem.With pride and love and confidence, Their mind is free to DREAM!" Author Unknown
We are living in tough, mean, hard times. It's easy to get depressed and worried. Here's what the BIBLE says about it. Jesus said:
Matthew 6:29 "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about what you will eat or drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than clothes? Look at the birds in the air; they do not reap or stow away in barns, and yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you, by worrying, can add a single hour to your life?"
And...
Matthew 6:34 Jesus also said:
"So don't be anxious about tomorrow. God will take care of your tomorrow too. Live one day at a time."
I have found great peace in these precarious times, just by throwing up my hands and saying, "Okay, LORD! I can't do anything about my situation, but you surely can! So, I'm leaving it ALL up to YOU!"
And things always have a way of miraculously working out, and it's not by anything I've done! It's ALL my Savior!
Nothing Surprises God!

Nothing Surprises God!
"For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away" James 4:14
"Nothing takes God by surprise. Everything is moving according to a plan; and God wants you in that plan. The devil also has a plan for the world. God has a plan, and the devil has a plan, and you will decide which plan you are going to fit into. Scripture tells us that God allows us some 70 years, and some beyond. The first 15 years are spent in adolescence. 20 years are spent in bed; and in the last 5, physical limitations curtail our activities. That gives us about 30 years in which to live as adults. We take time out for eating, and for figuring our taxes, and we are down to perhaps 15 years. Now suppose we spend 7 of those years watching television. That cuts us down to 7 or 8 years. Our time is short! The time we can invest for God, in creative things, in reaching our fellowmen for Christ is short!"
------Billy Graham
