5 Biblical Steps to Escape Hell

You must escape hell because this present heaven and earth are passing away, with everything in it but God has created a kingdom into which those who trust Him shall be transferred. The heaven and earth and passing away and those who don’t want to pass away with it must strive to enter the narrow gate through the strait road that leads into the kingdom.

[Luke 21:33 KJV] “Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

This present heaven and earth is passing but there is no cause for alarm at all because Jesus Christ is preparing a place for us. He has gone to prepare a place for those who have accepted to be part of the new kingdom that the Father is creating.

[John 14:1‭-‬4¹ KJV] “Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know”.

God is preparing a kingdom wherein dwells righteousness and peace.

This kingdom does not come with observation. It is a supernatural but tangible kingdom.

[Luke 17:20 KJV] “And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:”

You cannot see the kingdom until you are born again, and you cannot enter this kingdom except you are born of water and of the spirit (See John 3:1-16²) Many are indifferent because they can’t even see the kingdom to desire it. Until you are born again, you cannot see the kingdom of God.

The five steps into the kingdom are;

1. Admit:

Admit that you have sinned and are guilty of sin. In Romans 3:23³, the Bible tells us that “all have sinned and come short of the glory of God”. We have lost the glory, the eternal glory of God.

2. Realize:

Realize that sin has a penalty – death – eternal damnation (See Roman 6:23). Just as good deeds have wages, bad deeds also have wages. The wages of sin is death. Eternal life is a free gift from God.

3. Acknowledge:

Acknowledge that the penalty of sin must be paid or remitted. But as a matter of truth, there cannot be the remission of sins except there are two things: repentance and shedding of blood.

[Hebrews 9:22 KJV] “And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission”.

It is important to acknowledge that the blood of Jesus Christ is the only blood that is shed for the remission of the sins of all.

[Matthew 26:27‭-‬29⁴ KJV] “And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom”.

4. Believe:

The fourth step to enter this kingdom is to believe that your sins can be remitted because Jesus died and rose again for you.

[Romans 10:8‭-‬13 KJV] “But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved”. 

5. Continue Steadfastly:

In Acts 14:22⁵, we are exhorted to continue steadfastly because we “must needs go through tribulation to enter the kingdom”. In Acts 2:42-47⁶, those who believed and were added continued steadfastly. You must continue steadfastly to enter the kingdom.

I pray that none of us will miss the kingdom. You will step into the beautiful kingdom of God and will not miss your place. You will dwell in a realm of righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

Be blessed, I love you!

2. John 3:1-16 (KJV): There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born? Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be? Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 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. ↩︎
