Are We Worthy?
Are we worthy of God's Grace?
Are we worthy of God's Salvation?
Are we worthy of God's Holy Spirit?
Are we worthy of God's Eternal Living Life?
Are we worthy of the Kingdom of God?
(There are many verses in the Authorized King James Bible that
tell mankind they must be worthy of these things.)
2 Thessalonians 1:11
Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would
count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good
pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power:
2 Timothy 3:16-17
ALL scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable
for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction
in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect,
throughly furnished unto all good works.
Many on earth believe they are Good and Worthy enough to go to Heaven after they physically die.
Many believe they follow God's Good by simply believing in God. They believe that does make them Worthy to live in Heaven with God. Heaven Is Good, Pure, and Holy.
Many even believe that when the Lord Jesus Christ does return to earth to Rapture the Church of Worthy individuals, that they also will be taken, because they do simply believe in Jesus Christ, and that does make them Good and Worthy.
When in actuality, most of those individuals,
• Lack Pure Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
• Lack an undertstanding of Pure Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
• Lack sighting of Pure Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
• Lack undertaking of Pure Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
• Lack truly following of the Pure and Holy Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
This lack of Pure and Holy Good does make individuals unworthy to ever be in the presence of our Pure and Holy God.• Lack an undertstanding of Pure Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
• Lack sighting of Pure Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
• Lack undertaking of Pure Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
• Lack truly following of the Pure and Holy Good that is needed to be Worthy enough to live in a Pure and Holy Heaven after they do physically die.
1 Thessalonians 2:12 That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory.
2 Thessalonians 1:5 Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:
2 Thessalonians 1:5 Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:
I have found that many individuals believe they have rights to God's Gifts and Rewards, because they simply believe in Jesus Christ, or on His Name.
Have they done anything to prove to God they are Worthy enough to obtain the Good and Righteous things of God?
Colossians 1:10 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
Philippians 1:9-11 And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment; That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ; Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
Proverbs 11:30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.
Ephesians 5:9 (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)
Matthew 3:10 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Matthew 7:17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
Proverbs 11:30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.
Ephesians 5:9 (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)
Matthew 3:10 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Matthew 7:17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
Jeremiah 5:25
Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you.
Individuals can claim to believe in Jesus Christ, and/or call on the Name of Jesus Christ all they want, but if they are not clothed in the correct garment of Good and Righteousness, that Is Jesus Christ, they will not be identified by Him (the Bridegroom), nor will He bless them with His Righteous Good Gifts and Rewards, because they are Not worthy of those things that belong to God which are Good, Pure and Holy.
This goes for any individual upon this wayward planet that seeks Eternal Living Life from God.
Job 29:14 I put on righteousness, and it clothed me: my judgment was as a robe and a diadem.
Isaiah 59:17 For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke.
Isaiah 59:17 For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke.
Ephesians 6:14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
Matthew 25:10-12 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
Matthew 22:12-13 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Luke 13:24-25 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able. When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are:
Matthew 7:22-23 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
Revelation 3:15-16 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
(Matthew 9:15, Matthew 25:1, Matthew 25:5-6, Luke 5:35, John 3:29, Revelation 18:23)
Matthew 22:12-13 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Luke 13:24-25 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.

Revelation 3:15-16 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
(Matthew 9:15, Matthew 25:1, Matthew 25:5-6, Luke 5:35, John 3:29, Revelation 18:23)
Fallen Angels have no concept emotionally, or otherwise of death, because they were created to be eternal beings. They believe, and tremble for what they can lose.
Individuals should also be fearful of what they can lose, which is an eternal existence.
James 2:19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well:
the devils also believe, and tremble.
2 Corinthians 7:15 And his inward affection is more abundant toward you, whilst he remembereth the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling ye received him.
Philippians 2:12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
2 Corinthians 7:15 And his inward affection is more abundant toward you, whilst he remembereth the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling ye received him.
Philippians 2:12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
Many believe Jesus Christ is the Lord God, as well as believe in the miracles He performed, and believe they have Eternal Life through His Name, yet they ignore that Jesus had distinctly used the words "might have life through his name".
John 20:31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
The LORD knew that there would be many that would believe on Him, and seek to lay claim to their having the Promise of Eternal Life as Sons of God by simply seeking to believe on His Name, and believe that they do not have to do anything, such as prove that they are worthy in calling Him Lord Jesus Christ. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Many believe they cannot, or do not have to overcome the sins of the world to enter into heaven, even when He Personally showed and displayed it was possible being a Son of God Himself; man's Example to follow after.
John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer;
I have overcome the world.
1 Peter 2:21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
1 John 2:6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
1 Peter 2:21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
1 John 2:6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
In believing that they do not have to overcome sin, nor need to repent from all sin which they committed after being saved, then they would be ignoring the gate of repentance, which is the strait gate that leads them to being saved, and also keeps them upon the road to the Kingdom of Heaven. Many will seek to enter into Heaven, yet shall not be able to, because they have distorted their belief upon that Name of Jesus Christ.
Matthew 22:8 Then saith he to his servants,
The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.
Luke 13:24 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
Luke 13:24 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
Individuals upon this wayward planet have no fear of God, or fear of what they may lose. Everything of God is taken for granted and expected, because of what they want to believe, follow, or have been taught.
Psalms 55:19 God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abideth of old. Selah. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.
Ecclesiastes 3:14 I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.
Romans 3:18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.
Hebrews 10:31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

Romans 3:18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.
Hebrews 10:31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
Gifts and Rewards of God are earned on earth, and in Heaven.
The first reward earned, or Not earned upon physical death, is the crown of life, but many forget, or ignore this fact. If an individual does not prove to God they are Worthy of the crown of life, the only reward they will receive is the second death (death of the soul & spirit).
James 1:12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried,
he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
Matthew 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Revelation 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
Revelation 2:11 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.
The Lord hath promised the crown of life to them that love Him to be Righteous enough to be in His Presence. Matthew 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Revelation 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
Revelation 2:11 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.
Matthew 5:8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
1 Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
1 Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
If an individual doesn't want to know the LORD and His Righteousness on earth, then He doesn't want to know them in heaven. "I know you not"! (Matthew 25:12, Luke 13:27, Matthew 8:12, Matthew 13:42, Matthew 22:13, Matthew 25:30, Revelation 3:16)
How do individuals prove to God that they are Worthy of His love, and that they do love Him, and His Righteous, Holy, and Pure Good to be reward Eternal Living Life?
Galatians 6:1-4 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ. For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself. But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.
Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
2 Corinthians 8:8 I speak not by commandment, but by occasion of the forwardness of others, and to prove the sincerity of your love.

How do individuals obtain the Good and Righteous things of God for Eternal Living Life?

God's required Good & Righteousness was Physically taught and displayed by/through Jesus Christ. Sadly, many have and walk in their own ideas of what good and righteousness is.
Romans 10:3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
Good and Righteousness is the only Way that does save, which Jesus Christ did Physically teach and display being God's Good and Righteousness in the Flesh.

God is the Power of Pure and Holy Good, that is Righteous.
The very same Good and Righteousness that is found in the Ten Commandments, because they were written for man's own good by God's Holy and Righteous Finger, which makes them Holy, Good, and Just.
The very same Holy, Pure, Righteous Good Spirit that wrote the Ten Commandments with His Finger Is Jesus Christ.
Romans 7:12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.

Saved individuals can keep themselves save and cleanse from the destruction of sin daily through repentance and a contrite heart and spirit, as scripture above states. Individuals will then obtain a new heart and spirit. A heart and Spirit of Righteous Good like they were initially created in. The scriptures teach individuals that they must put on the new man, God doesn't do it.
(Ephesians 4:24, Colossians 3:10, Romans 6:6)
Colossians 3:10 And have put on
the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
Ezekiel 11:19 And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh:
Ezekiel 18:31 Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
Ezekiel 36:26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.

Be of good cheer, you too can overcome the world's sin, if you do as He did. Truly following Him in His steps doesn't mean you can pick and choose what steps to follow.
John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
Man has been given the Knowledge of God that is Jesus Christ. The Knowledge of God (God's Righteous Good) gives them the Power to become Sons of God, if we truly utilize the Knowledge of God to overcome the world.
1 John 3:2-3 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.
John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
1 Corinthians 15:34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.
John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
1 Corinthians 15:34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.
Jesus said, "I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled?" (Luke 12:49)
Jesus came to send knowledge (fire) on the earth; and what will He, if it be already not heard (kindled).
The knowledge of God is upon the earth. All we have to do is believe and receive it in heart, soul, and mind.
Romans 2:12-15 For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law; (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)
Proverbs 3:1-3 My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments: For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee. Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:
Proverbs 7:2-3 Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye. Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart.

Proverbs 3:1-3 My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments: For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee. Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:

Individuals that profess that they love God and His Righteousness should want to keep God's Set Standard of Good and Righteousness, the Ten Commandments,
• To obey God.
He commands it. God knows what works to be successful.
• To overcome sin.
The Power of Good does destroy all evils and sin.
• To prove we are worthy of the things of God.
• To prove we love God and His Righteous Good.

Isaiah 49:22 Thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people: and they shall bring thy sons in their arms, and thy daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders.
Titus 1:16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.
Titus 1:16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.
Those that profess they love God and His Righteousness should want to keep His Commandments for their own Good, to prove their worthiness unto God, so they may continue to live.
Deuteronomy 10:13 To keep the commandments of the LORD, and his statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good?
1 Kings 3:14 And if thou wilt walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as thy father David did walk, then I will lengthen thy days.
Proverbs 4:4 He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live.
Proverbs 7:2 Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.
Proverbs 6:23 For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:

It is not impossible to keep Ten simple Commandments. If you believe it is impossible to keep the Ten Commandments, then you need to ask yourself why you believe such, and/or why you can't keep them.
Many upon the planet do keep and live-by the Ten Commandments fully and completely, Jews and Christians alike. Jesus Himself does voice this fact in saying, "I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance."
Luke 5:32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
Luke 1:6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
God is a Just God. God doesn't command, or ask things of man that they cannot do, or handle. If anyone believes otherwise, then they don't really know God, nor His Good and Righteousness that Is Jesus Christ, nor are they truly following Him in the Good and Righteousness of Heaven. Luke 1:6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
Can a born again believer make a mistake, fall short, or miss the mark? Certainly! They are to Repent, seek God's Forgiveness, and get back on track! But keep in mind, continual mistakes are no longer mistakes! God knows if a contrite heart is present in seeking His forgiveness!
Don't allow your excuses, or false learning to be the reason for not obtaining the things of God, especially the Crown of Life for Eternal Living Life!
Would you want to spend eternity with someone that cannot keep Ten simple Commandments of Good and Righteousness?
What do you think would happen to God's Heaven if such individuals were allowed into
God's Heaven of Good & Righteousness?
God Forbid!!!
