Our confession of Christ does not mean inheriting Gods kingdom

This is a question that has been raised many times on AAG, though worded a little differently by you it is still the same question.

Let me ask you a question:

According to your view do you do the will of God to be saved or do you do the will of God because you are saved? In other words, according to your view, do we have to work hard to be saved or do we respond to God because we are saved and live for Him?

Lord Bless,

Eph 2:8. For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast. 10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them . nkjv
Fast there is a grace from God whichis prepared by God Himself then we are called that is why we are saved by faith but not by ourselves. When we are called, we are not called not only to celebrate salvation but also to seek to know why we are called as it is very clear to be Gods workmanship. There is a divine plan which was set by God before He created the earth and everyone and as believers we pursue His divine plan to raise a divine nation in the earth which upholds Gods principles and values in their operations without compromising with the nation's of the world. In the other side we have non believers fulfilling the will of God by increasing darkness like a president advocating for homosexuality to all nations and many more . This is in lineage of the prophesy in Daniel. The statue representing century after century increase of decay of values in people who don't know God but they are driven by personal interest. While we who are called we form a stone formed by God (Gods value in our life being expressed in the earth). A non believer will fulfill God will by increasing darkness (wrong values) while a believer in Christ will increase Gods value so that God can judge the nation's as it was in the days of Noah so shall it be in our day but we have to overcome deception in Ministries and be committed to build believers so that we can raise a generation of present Daniel (Matt 24) . Prophesionals, business people in Christ must stand up in faith and see they express God in every sphere. We have this structures in place and we are over 100 nations all across the earth and we have impacted some nations and many nations are coming to ask us show us your ways this is fulfillment of isa 2:1-4.

Yes, because we are saved we must seek to live holy and God pleasing lives. We do this not to be saved, but because we have been transformed and indwelt by the living God.

 Yes, I total agree with this. We cannot be hearers and not do or live his word. Many think that going the church and being on the church board that is all and enough, but not true. This life of christ have to be lived and acceptable to our lord and savior Jesus Christ.

God telling us well done good and faithful servant does not coming by just confessing Christ, attending church service, preaching and having many churches, being famous preacher, having money and flying with jets, being a television preacher but being connected to Gods mind and knowing exactly the hope of His calling according to His purpose and will.

  21 "Knowing the correct password — saying 'Master, Master,' for instance — isn't going to get you anywhere with me. What is required is serious obedience — doing what my Father wills. 22 I can see it now — at the Final Judgment thousands strutting up to me and saying, 'Master, we preached the Message, we bashed the demons, our God-sponsored projects had everyone talking.' 23 And do you know what I am going to say? 'You missed the boat. All you did was use me to make yourselves important. You don't impress me one bit. You're out of here.' THE MESSAGE

More than a half of the church today does not have relevance in God is just show off, manipulation and deception but time has come we have to find relevance so that we take our place in partnering with god to fulfill His will in the earth. Jesus said your will be done in earth as it is in heaven. We cannot be an escaping church which wants to leave its responsibility here on earth and go to heaven. God birthed His church so that he can build a global body of believers who are not religious and divided by denominational celebrities leaders but joined through kingdom values above all values of this world to bring forth a nation that was promised through our father Abraham.
