How Do You Get Into Heaven? This question will bring a variety of answers. A confusion of views is evident in the following sampling of opinions gathered for the Radio Bible Class program ’Sounds of the Times’:

- "God wouldn’t send you to hell." (New York)

- "I’ll cross that bridge when I get there." (Boston)

- "You have to believe in God." (Miami)

- "There is nothing I can do about it." (New York)

- "I don’t dare say that I know I’m going." (Los Angeles)

- "Keep the Ten Commandments." (San Francisco)

- "How I live my life...being kind to other people." (Boston)

- "Jesus gave His life for my salvation." (Los Angeles)

- "I couldn’t care less." (Boston)

- "Be a good person." (Gainesville)

- "I feel I’d go to hell." (San Francisco)

Can we know? Or is one idea as good as another? The Word of God tells us that we can have a definite answer. It’s the answer that focuses on Jesus Christ.
