Dave responds:
I don't think your interpretation is correct. Jesus said these were
"workers of iniquity" or those who practice sinning. There are a couple
of sins that can prevent a person from entering into heaven. All sins
can be forgiven. However, the sin of "no love or agape" and
"unforgiveness" will definately keep a person from entering into Heaven.
Even the Apostle Paul said in I Cor.13 that he can speak in tongues of
men and angels, but if he did not have charity or love, he was nothing.
So again, I believe your analysis and interpretation of Jesus' words is
not totally accurate. Wouldn't you think that unforgivenenss and a lack
of love will keep a person who claims to have obeyed Acts 2:38 and lives
a holy life out of heaven? It sure will.
