Why can’t unsaved people go to heaven?
Dear Friends,
People who have family members or friends who are not saved often ask, “Why can’t unsaved people go to heaven?”
Today’s devotional gives one clear answer to that question. God bless you.
Because of Calvary,
John Janney
Revelation 21:27
Revelation 21:27English Standard Version (ESV)
27 But nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who does what is detestable or false, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s book of life.
Revelation 21:27
“It is a mercy that unrenewed men cannot enter heaven; if they could, heaven would not last as heaven for even five minutes.
There would be another hell created if unrenewed men could walk among the palms and harps of the glorified.”
[Charles Haddon Spurgeon, The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit XLII, (London: Passmore and Alabaster, 1896), p. 594]
