Can you earn your way into Heaven?

Watch this clip from the film, 'A Perfect Stranger'. It explains quite good about what Jesus says in the Bible about not getting into Heaven by your good works!



For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9)

for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23).

For Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive by the Spirit (1 Peter 3:18)

Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life. (John 5:24).

For whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved (Romans 10:13).
