1 Corinthians 6:9-11
New King James Version (NKJV)
9 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, 10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.
God is God all by Himself. Any attempts we make to make God into something we want Him to be is simply idolatry.
When we create this new version of “God” so support our own hopes and dreams, we have simply created a brand new God.
In the end, we are simply left with the idea that we go to heaven because we are good. The bible does not support that notion.
It is repentance from sin (through the blood of Jesus) and obedience to God that He requires of us.
So many people see the church as merely a “club”. The church is not a building. It is people who love God, and His Christ. So may people want to be in the club, but want to do it based upon their own ideals.
