But without faith it is impossible to please him : FOR HE THAT COMETH TO GOD MUST BELIEVE THAT HE IS, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Hebrews 11:6. Let's make this really simple and stop playing foolish word games with The Word. Just for illustration, let's say that if you claim to be a Christian, you will have 10 Biblical traits or markers in your Walk with the Lord. All 10 will be seen and known, yes to varying degrees for each individual, but all 10 WILL be known. For example, you must Believe God Is, you must surrender your will to Christ's Will, you must obey the leading of the Holy Spirit, that's 3 for starters. Most people in most churches believe they are going to heaven of some sort because they are qualified by their own standards. Only the True Followers of Christ will compare themselves to Christ's standards and ask Him to conform them to His Plan, His Way, in His Time. These Believers will gladly let you compare them to a Biblical Standard and if, (when), they come up short, they will go even harder towards that Standard. A Christian Rejoices in Growing towards CHRISTLIKENESS and will Grow even more during adversity and tribulation. These Christians will NOT be disheartened or discouraged from moving towards Christ. This Growing is a process that sometimes feels like one step forward and two steps back. But overall, growth is always Forward. Christ isn't building an army of wimps with excuses, but an Army of Victorious Followers who will gladly "take a bullet" for their Commander-In-Chief. These Christians are dedicated to the "very end", knowing there will be no "end". Their Walk with Christ starts with Salvation and goes throughout Eternity. The idea of physical death doesn't even come up on the radar screen. We die now, or we die later, death takes but a moment, Life is Eternal. He, and they, have no end, just Praise and Honor to Him Who Saved them, knowing that they will Forever, Be Blessed.
