Will Everyone Enter Into The Kingdom
Not Everyone Will Enter.
Not everyone that will say unto Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of My Father Who is in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name? and in Your name, we have cast out devils? and in Your name, we have done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them,” I never knew you: depart from Me, you that work iniquity.” Matthew 7 vs 21-23.
What Is The Will Of The Father?
Then His mother and brothers came to Him and could not approach Him because of the crowd. And it was told Him by some, who said, “Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, desiring to see You.” But He answered and said to them, “My mother and My brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it.” Luke 8 v 19-21.
While Jesus e yet talked to the people, behold, His mother and His brethren stood without, desiring to speak with Him. Then one said unto Jesus Behold, Your mother and Your brethren stand without, desiring to speak with You. But Jesus answered and said unto him that told Him, Who is My mother? and who are My brethren? And Jesus stretched forth His hand toward His disciples, and said, Behold My mother and My brethren! For whosoever shall do the will of My Father which is in heaven, the same is My brother, and sister, and mother. Matthew 12:46-50.
There came then Jesus’s brethren and His mother, and, standing without, sent unto him, calling him. And the multitude sat about Jesus, and they said Behold, Your mother and brethren without seek for You. And Jesus answered them, saying, Who is My mother, or My brethren? And Jesus looked round about on them which sat about Him, and said, Behold My mother and My brethren! For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is My brother, and My sister, and mother. Mark 3:31-35.
Failing To Enter The Kingdom.
And Jesus looked round about, and said unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the Kingdom of God! And the disciples were astonished at His words. But Jesus answered again, and said unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the Kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God. Mark 10:23-25
But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut up the Kingdom of heaven against men: for you neither go in yourselves, neither suffer you them that are entering to go in. Matthew 23:13
But Jesus called them unto Him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto Me, and forbid them not: for of such is the Kingdom of God. Verily I say unto you; Whosoever shall not receive the Kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein. Luke 18:16-17
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you Except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God. Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a man be born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God. John 3:3,5
