Heaven and How to Get There | John 14 | Gary Hamrick

10/30/2022
What will Heaven be like? How can we get there? Pastor Gary answers these two questions today’s study from John 14. Many people think that if they are good enough they will get to Heaven when they die, but then the question becomes, “How good is good enough?” Thankfully, Jesus died on a cross for our sins because He knew that we are not good enough—there is nothing we can do to earn or deserve Heaven. Yet Jesus opened Heaven wide through His sacrifice on the cross for all who would believe, and then He made a bold declaration that He is the only way to Heaven! Heaven is a choice. At the close of today’s teaching, Pastor Gary will help you to understand how to make that choice for Jesus so that you can go to Heaven when you die.

00:00 - Introduction

Hello ALL Warrior Brides!!! 😍
For 28 years now, the Scripture Holy Spirit
put on my heart to share (was raised in the
catholic religion) is John 3:3…Jesus told
Nicodemus that one MUST BE “ born again”
to see the Kingdom of God!!! Over the years,
have met many JOYful recovering catholics
as they call themselves!!! Praying this world
has a sense of urgency about their Eternal
Destination…choose LIFE in Christ AND KNOW
where you’ll spend
