Jesus made it plain that not eveyone even those claiming to be his followers would be acceptable to him. Does God HAVE to GIVE you everlasting life? considering these scriptures, the answer is NO.
(Matthew 7:21-23) 21 “Not everyone saying to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the kingdom of the heavens, but the one doing the will of my Father who is in the heavens will. 22 Many will say to me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and expel demons in your name, and perform many powerful works in your name?’ 23 And yet then I will confess to them: I never knew YOU! Get away from me, YOU workers of lawlessness.
(Luke 13:23-24) . . . He said to them: 24 “Exert yourselves vigorously to get in through the narrow door, because many, I tell YOU, will seek to get in but will not be able. . .
So then what must you do to be accaptable?
(James 2:14-17) . . .Of what benefit is it, my brothers, if a certain one says he has faith but he does not have works?
