You won't like my answer! You have to be 100% perfect if you want to get into God's heaven and be accepted by Him. " What?" you say in amazement."That's not fair. I try so hard but I can't be 100% good. What human being can?" You see if you told me you were 80% per cent good, I as a fellow human being would think you were doing pretty well, but I am not making the rules. God's standard is you have to be 100% good to get into heaven. But before you turn away dejectedly let me tell you the good news, "God has made a way for you to be perfect and you don't have to do anything to add to that." His way is for you to trust in Jesus and He will throw over you His robe of righteouness to cover all your wrongdoing, wash it away and make you totally acceptable to God. Surely you aren't going to try to get to heaven under your own steam now. And yet on hearing this many say, "I'm sure God will accept me if I try my best." I assure you He will not. He has made the only way to heaven through Jesus. If you try on your own you are insulting God by rejecting His way.Father son and Holy Spirit went to so much trouble to make this way for you and you would rather go your own way which can never work. Guess where that will land you.
When we lose a loved one it is natural to wonder how they are faring in the next life. I would warn against going to a medium to find out. At worst these people are charlatans after your money, the rest misguided or worse. We are told in the Bible not to try to reach the dead. The best person to call on in this situation is Jesus. That's right, go to the top. He is always available through prayer and doesn't make a charge. All he requires is that you look for him with all your heart. He has the answers to all of life's difficult questions.
