Bible Question:
In a talking with a friend today, we were talking about heaven. I said that sin can not enter heaven, he disagreed with me. Can someone give me scripture to read on this topic? God Bless, Remodeled |
Bible Answer: Common sense would tell you, "No." Think about it. What is God? He is all pure, holy, righteous, and just. Correct? What is the opposite of that? Sin. Correct? God hates sin. That is told to us time and time again throughout the Bible. Why would God go through the trouble of separating the Sinners and Saved, send his son to save us from our sins, prepare a place for both the Sinner to spend in punishment and the Saved to spend in reward, only to allow sin to enter heaven? Seems a bit stupid, don't you think? All that trouble only to allow sin into heaven anyway. Paul tells us perfectly all throughout his epistles, "The Unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God."
