Who Goes to Heaven

For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Rather, as it is written: “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no heart has imagined, what God has prepared for those who love Him.”

Salvation exists in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.”

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

But our citizenship is in heaven, and we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ,

…who, by the power that enables Him to subject all things to Himself, will transform our lowly bodies to be like His glorious body.

Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again.”

We are confident, then, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord.

No one has ascended into heaven except the One who descended from heaven—the Son of Man.

But in keeping with God’s promise, we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells.
