Not everyone who says to me, “Lord, Lord,” will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, “Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?” Then I will tell them plainly, "I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!” - Jesus (Matt. 7:21-23) Over 85% of Americans believe in God and think they are going to go to Heaven when they die. Is this confidence warranted? Given the moral condition of our culture and Jesus’s stern warnings about being ill-prepared for his coming, I don't think so. From a biblical perspective, it seems many people are walking around with a false assurance of salvation. Avoiding that is what this series is about. In it we walk through ten characteristics of people who are ill prepared to face eternity.

Without faith it is impossible to please God, according to the author of Hebrews. What does that mean, and how does it relate to being saved by grace? Is it just an intellectual thing, or is obedience involved? Don answers these questions and more in this chapter, walking the reader through a biblical theology of faith that avoids the extremist errors that plague American Christianity. He also provided a very practical way to test ourselves to see where we are placing our faith, because without faith in Jesus, we won’t make it into the Promised Land.
