Worse yet, many who consider themselves Christians and who are convinced they are going to heaven will be shut out – even though they aren’t indulging in gross sin or bad things of any kind! The Christians I’m referring to do not use drugs or alcohol. They don’t gamble. They don’t indulge in pornography or sexual perversion. They aren’t numbered among the wicked and vile. In fact, you may find many of them in church on Sunday morning. And they spend most of their free time with friends and family, enjoying good things. They are family people, with family values. Having said this, I want to make an even bolder statement – one that may offend some. Yet I say it in loving concern for those in the church of Jesus Christ who can’t see they are headed for disaster: Some may be in danger of losing their very soul – even though they sit in church, absolutely convinced they are on their way to heaven! This whole idea may seem like a paradox to you. But I want to prove it to you from Scripture. If ever you heed any message the Holy Spirit speaks to you, let it be this one. Here is my point: Some believers will be shut out of heaven not because of the bad things they have done – but because they have become so preoccupied with doing good, legitimate things they neglect the things that really count – eternal things. Their zeal for good things has pushed aside the things of God! Such people have become so engrossed in the here and now that they literally have no time for the deeper things of the spiritual life. They’re sweating away to build their business, advance their career, provide for their family – but their focus has become completely out of order! The Bible says: “Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you” (Matthew 6:33). These are Christ’s own words – and they are not a suggestion, but a commandment. Jesus means what he says here, promising: “If you seek the Lord first, he will take care of all the things you’re toiling over – career, business, home, family. But you must make him your primary focus!” … 1. Consider What Jesus Says About the Days of Noah and Lot (Luke 17:26-30). … . Consider the Man Who Made A Great Feast – But Whose Invited Guests All Turned Him Down (Luke 14:16-24). … 3. Finally, a Large Number Who Ought to Be in the Bridal Procession Will Be Left Out (Matthew 25:1-13). … https://worldchallenge.org/newsletter/1996/good-things-that-keep-people-out-of-heaven David Wilkerson was the Founding Pastor of Times Square Church in New York City. He was called to New York in 1958 to minister to gang members and drug addicts, as told in the best-selling book, The Cross and the Switchblade. In 1987, David Wilkerson returned to “the crossroads of the world” to establish Times Square Church. As a pastor of the church, he faithfully led this congregation, delivering powerful biblical messages that encourage righteous living and complete reliance on God.
