What does it take to make it into God's Heaven? Let's look at the facts according to The Holy Bible...
God is. He is all powerful, all present, and all knowing.
Man is in a fallen state of sin.
There is good and evil.
History records all that God has done.
God Himself has sent a redeemer as predicted in Isaiah of the Old Testament in The Holy Bible.
The price paid for sin must be death; that is the price that God paid for us with the life of His only begotten Son.
There is much more, but this is the basics. Satan knows and that is not enough, so just to know it is not enough for us either. There must be more to it.
How can we know that we have a place reserved for us in God's Heaven?
Here is one way...
"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." (Romans 3:23)
"For the wages of sin is death..." (Romans 6:23a)
"...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." (Romans 6:23b)
"But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8)
"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Romans 10:13)
Further...
"Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me." (Revelations 3:20a)
Even if you don't believe in God, if you take the step to look to the heavens and ask that anyone there would show themselves to you in a way that you can understand, God will honor that prayer and show you Who He is.
