We have to Be perfect in order to make heaven

[NorCal]

According to Paul, we must "Die Daily"
According to Peter, "Be Ye Holy, for I AM Holy"

If you live by the WHOLE BIBLE you will be perfected unto Christ.

The problem with Christian Society is that they like to pick and choose.
OSAS do not follow Peter or Paul or even Christs teachings.
Pure Legalists do not rely enough on "Faith in Christ"

It takes both, Works displaying your Faith.
Remember, Jesus did not come to destroy The Law (for he WAS the Law/Word) but to Fulfill The Law.

As a Christian you must
1) Believe that God Is
2) That he is a rewarder of those that seek him
3) That Jesus Christ is God
4) And follow all the teachings of Christ and his Apostles


Yes as you follow Christ, your ways, thoughts, and actions will change.

Biblically, the only thing you NEED to get to heaven is "Christ in you, the hope of glory" as this will lead you to be "the image of Christ". Remember, we are the "Clay on the Potters Wheel". We are being transformed into the Image of Christ.
