I just want to post these lonely Scriptures real quick for all of the people who think that human beings are constantly sinning, and that people can't stop sinning:
Revelation 22:
14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

Jesus speaking, Matthew 19:
17"You can get to Heaven if you keep the Commandments."
18 "Which ones?" the man asked .
And Jesus replied, "Don't kill, don't commit adultery, don't steal, don't lie,
19 Honor your father and mother, and love your neighbor as yourself!"

Jesus speaking, Matthew 5:
17 "DON'T misunderstand why I have come. It isn't to cancel the laws of Moses and the warnings of the prophets. No, I came to fulfill them and to make them all come true.
18 With all the earnestness I have I say: every law in the Book will continue until it's purpose is achieved.
19 And so if anyone breaks the least Commandment, and teaches others to, he shall be the least in the Kingdom of Heaven. But those who teach God's Laws and obey them shall be great in the Kingdom of Heaven."


Jesus speaking, Matthew 7:
21 Not all who sound religious are really godly people. They MAY refer to me as 'Lord' but STILL won't get to heaven.
For the decisive question is whether they OBEY my FATHER in Heaven.
22 At the Judgement many will tell me, "Lord, Lord, we told others about you and used your name to cast out demons and to do many other great miracles."
23 But *I* will reply, "You have NEVER been mine. Go away, for your deeds are evil."


Jesus speaking, Matthew 4:
17 "Turn FROM sin, and turn TO God, for the Kingdom of Heaven is near."

I am not Catholic but I LOVE the Catholic Church. To me, they ARE more like Christ. If we love God, we will obey God, certainly obey those 10 Commandments. It's all about walking the walk, and not just lip-service.
