"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say unto me, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then I will profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." Matthew 7:21-22

"Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect." Matthew 5:48

or

"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God...Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of law." Romans 3:23-28

"In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel." Romans 2:16

Who is Paul to claim God will judge men according to the words of Paul?

What are Paul's words compared to the Word of Jesus? Who is Paul to gainsay Jesus? He is but a man who killed Christians.

we die then pass into heaven or hell
our spirit remains alive and dosnt go to sleep awaiting any judgment ;
our deeds determine wether we go to the light or dwell in darkness ,we can redeem our right to enter the light by assisting others to arise above their and our own fears
please answer
if you believe we stay asleep till a given day of judgment please answer with a sure date
if you feel we are to be judged do we get time off for being undead for a longer time?
what of those having been dead for over 6000 years is god that unfair
please dont worry that i will be offended ,i only want the truth

Where can I find a charcoal block? I need one to use with noncombustable incense. I searched online and all I found was places telling me that's what I need, not where to get one.

Just because" Khaatam ol Nabiin"(which there is different points of view in interpreting the word: Khaatam), While there is in Quran implications about prophets coming continuously to guide the man:
A'araaf, 35
Baghareh, 38

And it is said that: for every group (including Islam) there is an ending and Islam is a middle group:
A'araaf, 34
Baghare, 142

"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say unto me, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then I will profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." Matthew 7:21-22

"...he that doeth the will of my Father..." makes clear that faith in grace is not enough, that to achieve heaven you must also do works that are in accordance with the will of the Father.

How do you justify a faith in grace alone when Jesus makes clear your works must be in accordance with the Word to attain heaven?

Is he holier than Jesus, or did the clergy who added his epistles to the NT have more of a reason to keep the laity from expecting the clergy to be perfect/complete as they are called upon in Matthew 5:48?

"Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect."

NEWS BRIEF: "Bush Signs Terror Interrogation Law", AP Breaking News, October 17, 2006

"WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush signed legislation Tuesday authorizing tough interrogation of terror suspects and smoothing the way for trials before military commissions, calling it a 'vital tool' in the war against terrorism ... With the bill I'm about to sign, the men our intelligence officials believe orchestrated the murder of nearly 3,000 innocent people will face justice," Bush said. A coalition of religious groups staged a protest against the bill outside the White House, shouting "Bush is the terrorist" and "Torture is a crime." About 15 of the protesters, standing in a light rain, refused orders to move. Police arrested them one by one."
