Id like to share a few quotes, 2 from a movie called Kingdom of Heaven. One of my favorite films but I believe this particular quote hits the nail on the head, so to speak. Of course, it has multiple meanings and I love how it makes you really think.
' I put no stock in religion. By the word religion I have seen the lunacy of fanatics of every denomination be called the will of god. I have seen too much religion in the eyes of too many murderers. Holiness is in right action, and courage on behalf of those who cannot defend themselves, and goodness. What god desires is here[points to head] and here[points to heart]and what you decide to do every day, you will be a good man - or not. '
' A King may move a man, a father may claim a son, but remember that even when those who move you be Kings, or men of power, your soul is in your keeping alone. When you stand before God, you cannot say, "But I was told by others to do thus." Or that, "Virtue was not convenient at the time." This will not suffice. Remember that. '
Heres a random quote that hits home I think, for those who dont believe in god or the devil.
' The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist. '

Good movie, and good quotes from the movie.
1~But as for "being good daily", that will not get you into heaven.
2~As for standing before the Lord on judgement day by yourself, that is true.
YOU will have to answer for all that you did or didn't do on this earth in human form.
3~As for religion or someone being religious. You can go bowling every Tuesday night religiously.
You can drink tea at 10 and 3 every day religiously.
4~You can go fishing, hunting, w/e... and say to others that 'doing this is my religion.
As for your soul hun, and goin' to heaven or to hell, yeah. Thats your choice.
When God created us all He gave us 'The Power of FREE CHOICE'.
So as for where you will be when you leave this mortal shell, is left up to you by God.
But God did promise a redeemer from his choosen people of Israel, and the entire Old Testament talks about that.
The New Testament is when God fulfilled that promise by :
"God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son. that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved." John 3:16~17..
So, it really is YOUR CHOICE to either accept Jesus Christ as Lord, Savior, and Redeemer of YOUR SOUL (Which really belongs to God to begin with, but thats for another discussion.); Or YOU, can reject Jesus and continue to live like heII and only think that good deeds or good works will get ya in to heaven when ya die.
But to be honest with ya hun, GOOD WORKS will not do it for ya. (Which is also another discussion to be had.)
The only way that you'll get into heaven is through accepting Jesus Christ as YOUR OWN PERSONAL ~Master, Lord, Savior and Redeemer of your heart, soul, mind and body and life and to become saved by grace, by faith, and by the blood of the lamb of God which is Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.
Sorry to get all preachie with ya hun. But I have found out a long time ago that hollyweird likes to take pieces from out of The Holy Bible which is God's Word, and to tell one tenth of a piece of Scripture, and then take the liberties to fill the other 90% of it with pure garbage and trash to mislead any one who doesn't know the word of God; and it just urcks me.
May God watch over you and continue to guide and direct your path with His word and the Holy Spirit, and if your not saved by Christ Jesus, I also pray that you will seek out some one whom ya trust to show you the way down 'Romans Road' and to have the assurrance of salvation through Christ Jesus as soon as possible.
If ya ever want to talk about salvation or anything from the Bible hun, just p/m me or any one of us here on the staff of the guild or even contact a friend and sister in the Lord: Ms. 'Iamlostforever'. She can also help ya with any questions that ya might have as well if you would be more comfortable talkin' to her.
Christian Huggles hun,
~Lyn~
