No Free Ticket
This Mansion Will Cost A Life

John 14:2, in my father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you, I go to prepare a place for you.

Romans 5:19, for as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. Moreover the Law entered, that the offence might abound

But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound that as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

In the world today in which man live, people want to portray that the mansion in Heaven is for their whole family (their natural families). They think that their prayers will automatically give their children a place in their mansion. It is deceptive and erroneous doctrine. Jesus came and he was the truth, the life and righteousness and all of them had to go to heaven, no part was left in the earth. Just because one knows the truth, does that necessarily mean that they tell the truth or do the truth? Does it mean that they live a life of righteousness, doing all they know to do? Many people in Ministry today wants their family to automatically grandfather into Heaven with no life of Christ involved, but just because of who they are on the natural side of life.

Many men and women of God is bring tricked into saving their household when they should be more concerned with the lost and dying world. Jesus left his mother and father and went about his Heavenly Father’s business. Their children should not be their number one priority where God is concerned, but concerned for the next sinner as one of their own also. God has already given parents charge over children, but they also need be concerned with the soul whereas wrongdoing is concerned. Although they love them they have to offer them salvation, but when they will not obey the Word do not let this be a distraction to them. They should not let God’s work go undone but realize the real business at hand, Kingdom Works. One will find out where they truly dwell in Christ when a crisis arises in their immediate family because of their response. God should always be first in the heart of the Christian and the trust they have in him determine how they will react to adversity.

Do not fret; Satan uses the closest people in the lives of the Christian to manipulate them into getting distracted from doing what God called them to do. While they are distracted they miss the soul that got by them, they lose focus of what is important and that missed soul may be lost forever.

A lie goes a long way before truth catches up to it, but truth does come. A person may live a lie most of his life but it do not mean truth did not come they just would not accept it. The Devil has deceived the leaders of God’s earthly church into thinking because their children did not accept the truth that they taught them that they have failed. Children when they have grown into men and women make choices and their conscience choice not to love God and serve him is their own. It is the Devil’s job to make the Leaders of God’s church lose focus on their concentration of his Word where they cannot hear what God is saying to them concerning his people. Does this mean stop praying and ministering to their wayward children? No. It means do not let their disappointment in their children stop them in their priority to win souls for the Kingdom of God. Distraction is not an excuse for slothfulness in God’s business. Get consumed the more into the Word and encourage yourselves in the Lord, turning a deaf ear to Satan and his attacks. One will find them selves becoming more effective in their prayer life, in praise and worship developing a stronger relationship with God. Children do not get a free ticket to Heaven. There are things in life where the children could ride off the adult ticket for free, but it is not so in Heaven. Every soul, man, woman, girl and boy will give an account of the deeds done in the body. Rooms are not added to this mansion on a free pass. Jesus is the way, he is the door and he holds the key to the soul of men. They must come through him the same way there is no new way that man must enter in other than at the door. There is no slipping or sliding in and one cannot be pushed in, the decision must be a conscious one to accept Christ as their savior.

Once in they must stay on the beacon path, Jesus came to redeem man back to God, not to condemn but through salvation they may be saved, but man rather live continuously in the darkness rather because their deeds are evil. This means that they were rejecting their ticket that cost them nothing but a pure clean life of holiness in and out of the body. Jesus said in St. John 3:20 for every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light lest his deeds should be removed. If they do truth and come to the light their mansion is built.

There is no free ticket, one must come to Jesus because he paid their bail to bring them out of eternal damnation, signed their bail receipt promising to show up for court. Well as in the natural the same happens so in the spirit. What will Jesus speak on your behalf in that day? Just as Jesus took one along with him to Heaven (the thief on the cross), everyone must reach back and take someone with them. Why would one want to go to Heaven, enjoy God while they live and die a selfish death not wanting anyone else to go too? After all they had a free ticket made free by Jesus. Give someone else that freedom to ride free on the ticket that Jesus provided for all men by providing the life for them to carry.
