I’m not boasting when I say that I believe with all my heart that if I should fall dead in the midst of this sentence, I would spend eternity in heaven. That’s not because I’m so good; it’s certainly not because I have never sinned. But I _can_ say this: if there is a single sin against me of which I have not repented, I do not know it. If I did know it, I would repent of it before I finished this statement. I wouldn’t wait till time for my evening prayer. The time to repent of a sin is just as soon as you become aware of it, right then and there. That’s what you have to do in order to be walking in the light. Never allow an unforgiven sin to hang over you for one minute for you might die during that minute, and have to spend eternity in torment. God doesn’t expect his children to go through life having so many ups and downs, thinking one minute they’re on their way to glory and the next minute on their way to hell. It isn’t necessary to be like that. God doesn’t want you to be. He wants you to be full of joy. If you will read this verse, meditate upon it, and conform to the conditions stated, it will certainly help you to be full of joy. I’m emphasizing the fact that you can go to heaven if you want to. I’d like to read one more Scripture and then we close. This is found in II Peter, chapter one, verse 5-10, “And beside this, giving all diligence; add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; and to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; and to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness love. For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins. Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure.” Do you notice that word “sure”? “Give diligence to make your calling and election _sure_”; it didn’t say to make it likely, or to make it probable, but to make it _certain_. It requires diligence, but if you will give the proper diligence, you can make your calling and election certain. “For if ye do these things, ye shall never fall. For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.” A man who does these things will not barely slip in by the skin of the teeth, but for him the gates will stand wide ajar. He will receive an abundant entrance into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior, inherit eternally a mansion which Jesus has gone to prepare for those who love him, for those who walk in the light, for those who do the best they can.
