How to Get to Heaven from Texas (or wherever you are).

I tried searching on Google maps for how to get to heaven where Jesus lives from Texas and this is what I found:

It says, "Maps can't find heaven where Jesus lives. Search the web instead."

Google is right, you can't find heaven on a map. Even one of Jesus' disciples, Thomas, admitted that he couldn't figure out how to get to where Jesus was going.

Jesus said;

"Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. And where I go you know, and the way you know."

Thomas said to Him, "Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?"

Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

Tut Jones, a friend who has now gone on to heaven, used to tell about how he had planned a trip for the family to Dallas. He told his little girls about the big city with the tall buildings and freeways with many people and many sights. When it piqued their interest he would say, "Now, do you want to go there?"

They replied, "Yes, daddy, yes."

He told them, "Allright, then if you want to go, take off."

Their answer was, "We don't know the way. We don't know how to get there."

He said to them, "Then how are you going to get there if you don't know the way."

Their answer was, "You know the way, daddy. We will go with you. You can take us."

This is true of heaven. None of us can get there on our own but we have the right to hitch a ride with the Lord Jesus. Not only does he know the way: He is the way.

Do  you want to go to heaven? Don't google it. Don't search the web for it. Look in the bible. It will tell you of Jesus who is the way, the truth, and the life.

Repent of your sins. Acknowledge them to God. Admit you are a sinner who deserves hell, not heaven, and turn from that sin to the righteous Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.

Trust in him. Trust that he is the perfect man who died on a sinner's cross and died in your place. Trust that he died to give you eternal life and receive his free gift of salvation. Trust that he knows the way to heaven and IS the way to heaven.

Today is the day of salvation.

"Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved."Acts 16.31

When Ronald Reagan was elected for his second term as president in 1984, the news broadcasters were talking about many republicans senators, representatives, and governors who were also elected that year. They were saying that many of these people were getting in "on the coattail" of President Reagan. I do think that was true.

Those who make it to heaven where there is no suffering, pain, heartache or death will not get there on our own merit, it will be on the coattail of Jesus Christ the Righteous One.

Since we have no righteousness of our own, why not enter into eternal life on the merits of Jesus, our Lord and Savior.
