       What was the reason for Jesus coming to the earth in the first place? You see, this is a serious problem among some folks, including those who identify as Christian. Even if they know they do wrong, they don't want to believe that God judges wrong. They want to believe that everyone goes to Heaven. Paul said, “the free gift by the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for many.” Notice that Paul doesn’t say, “abounded for all.” He said, “abounded for many.” You see, not everyone is going to believe the Gospel. Not even everyone who says they believe in Jesus will enter the Kingdom of Heaven when they die. Not everyone who says they are a Christian meets the requirements of being a Christian. Let us bring to mind what Jesus has said, “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven” (“Matthew 7:21, ESV).
