How to get to heaven
Scripture
John 8
1 Iesus went vnto þe Mount of Oliues:
2 And earely in the morning hee came againe into the Temple, and all the people came vnto him, and he sate downe, and taught them.
3 And the Scribes and Pharisees brought vnto him a woman taken in adultery, and when they had set her in the mids,
4 They say vnto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
5 Now Moses in the Law commanded vs, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
6 This they said, tempting him, that they might haue to accuse him. But Iesus stouped downe, and with his finger wrote on the ground as though he heard them not.
7 So when they continued asking him, hee lift vp himselfe, and saide vnto them, Hee that is without sinne among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
8 And againe, hee stouped downe, and wrote on the ground.
9 And they which heard it, being conuicted by their owne conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, euen vnto the last: and Iesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
10 When Iesus had lift vp himselfe, and saw none but the woman, hee said vnto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? Hath no man condemned thee?
11 She saide, No man, Lord. And Iesus saide vnto her, Neither doe I condemne thee: Goe, and sinne no more.
12 ¶ Then spake Iesus againe vnto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth mee, shall not walke in darkenesse, but shall haue the light of life.
13 The Pharisees therefore said vnto him, Thou bearest record of thy selfe, thy record is not true.
14 Iesus answered, and said vnto them, Though I beare record of my selfe, yet my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I goe: but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I goe.
15 Yee iudge after the flesh, I iudge no man.
16 And yet if I iudge, my iudgement is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
17 It is also written in your Law, that the testimonie of two men is true.
18 I am one that beare witnesse of my selfe, and the Father that sent mee, beareth witnesse of me.
19 Then said they vnto him, Where is thy Father? Iesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had knowen mee, yee should haue knowen my Father also.
20 These words spake Iesus in the treasury, as hee taught in the Temple: and no man layd hands on him, for his houre was not yet come.
21 Then saide Iesus againe vnto them, I goe my way, and ye shall seeke me, & shall die in your sinnes: Whither I goe, ye cannot come.
22 Then said the Iewes, Will hee kill himselfe? because he saith, Whither I goe, ye cannot come.
23 And hee said vnto them, Yee are from beneath, I am from aboue: Yee are of this world, I am not of this world.
24 I said therefore vnto you, that ye shall die in your sinnes. For if yee beleeue not that I am hee, yee shall die in your sinnes.
25 Then said they vnto him, Who art thou? And Iesus saith vnto them, Euen the same that I saide vnto you from the beginning.
26 I haue many things to say, and to iudge of you: But hee that sent mee is true, and I speake to the world, those things which I haue heard of him.
27 They vnderstood not that hee spake to them of the Father.
28 Then saide Iesus vnto them, When yee haue lift vp the Sonne of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I doe nothing of my selfe: but as my Father hath taught mee, I speake these things.
29 And he that sent me, is with me: the Father hath not left mee alone: for I doe alwayes those things that please him.
30 As hee spake those words, many beleeued on him.
31 Then said Iesus to those Iewes which beleeued on him, If ye continue in my word, then are yee my disciples indeed.
32 And ye shall know the Trueth, and the Trueth shall make you free.
33 ¶ They answered him, We be Abraham seed, and were neuer in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Yee shall be made free?
34 Iesus answered them, Uerily, verily I say vnto you, Whosoeuer committeth sinne, is the seruant of sinne.
35 And the seruant abideth not in the house for euer: but the Sonne abideth euer.
36 If the Sonne therfore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
37 I know that yee are Abrahams seed, but ye seeke to kill mee, because my word hath no place in you.
38 I speake that which I haue seene with my Father: and ye do that which ye haue seene with your father.
39 They answered, and said vnto him, Abraham is our father. Iesus sayth vnto them, If yee were Abrahams children, ye would doe the works of Abraham.
40 But now yee seeke to kill me, a man that hath tolde you the trueth, which I haue heard of God: this did not Abraham.
41 Ye doe the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not borne of fornication, wee haue one Father, euen God.
42 Iesus said vnto them, If God were your Father, yee would loue me, for I proceeded foorth, and came from God: neither came I of my selfe, but he sent me.
43 Why doe yee not vnderstand my speech? euen because yee cannot heare my word.
44 Ye are of your father the deuill, and the lusts of your father ye will doe: hee was a murtherer from the beginning, and abode not in the trueth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his owne: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
45 And because I tell you the truth, ye beleeue me not.
46 Which of you conuinceth mee of sinne? And if I say the trueth, why doe ye not beleeue me?
47 He that is of God, heareth Gods words: ye therefore heare them not, because ye are not of God.
48 Then answered the Iewes, and said vnto him, Say wee not well that thou art a Samaritane, & hast a deuill?
49 Iesus answered, I haue not a deuill: but I honour my Father, and ye doe dishonour me.
50 And I seeke not mine owne glory, there is one that seeketh & iudgeth.
51 Uerely, verely I say vnto you, If a man keepe my saying, hee shall neuer see death.
52 Then said the Iewes vnto him, Now we know that thou hast a deuill. Abraham is dead, and the Prophets: and thou sayest, If a man keepe my saying, he shall neuer taste of death.
53 Art thou greater then our father Abraham, which is dead? and the Prophets are dead: whom makest thou thy selfe?
54 Iesus answered, If I honour myselfe, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me, of whom ye say, that he is your God:
55 Yet ye haue not knowen him, but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shalbe a lyar like vnto you: but I know him, and keepe his saying.
56 Your father Abraham reioyced to see my day: and he saw it, & was glad.
57 Then said the Iewes vnto him, Thou art not yet fiftie yeeres olde, and hast thou seene Abraham?
58 Iesus said vnto them, Uerely, verely I say vnto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
59 Then tooke they vp stones to cast at him: but Iesus hidde himselfe, and went out of the Temple, going thorow the midst of them, and so passed by.
If you don't want to have the devil as your father you have to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ to get God the Father as your Father in heaven.
Jesus Christ has died for your sins on the cross, been buried and resurrected on the third day and if you believe on Him you receive as a free gift eternal life in heaven.
Matthew 10
1 And when hee had called vnto him his twelue disciples, he gaue them power against vncleane spirits, to cast them out, and to heale all maner of sickenesse, and all maner of disease.
2 Now the names of the twelue Apostles are these: The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, Iames the sonne of Zebedee, and Iohn his brother:
3 Philip, and Bartholomew, Thomas, and Matthew the Publicane, Iames the sonne of Alpheus, and Lebbeus, whose surname was Thaddeus:
4 Simon the Canaanite, and Iudas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
5 These twelue Iesus sent foorth, and commanded them, saying, Goe not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:
6 But goe rather to the lost sheepe of the house of Israel.
7 And as yee goe, preach, saying, The kingdome of heauen is at hand:
8 Heale the sicke, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out deuils: freely ye haue receiued, freely giue.
9 Prouide neither gold, nor siluer, nor brasse in your purses:
10 Nor scrippe for your iourney, neither two coats, neither shooes, nor yet staues: (for the workeman is worthy of his meat.)
11 And into whatsoeuer city or towne ye shall enter, inquire who in it is worthy, and there abide till yee goe thence.
12 And when ye come into an house, salute it.
13 And if the house be worthy, let your peace come vpon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace returne to you.
14 And whosoeuer shall not receiue you, nor heare your words: when yee depart out of that house, or city, shake off the dust of your feete.
15 Uerely I say vnto you, it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of iudgment, then for that citie.
16 Behold, I send you foorth as sheepe in the middest of wolues: be yee therefore wise as serpents, and harmelesse as doues.
17 But beware of men: for they will deliuer you vp to the Councils, and they will scourge you in their Synagogues,
18 And yee shall be brought before Gouernours and Kings for my sake, for a testimonie against them, and the Gentiles.
19 But when they deliuer you vp, take no thought, how or what ye shall speake, for it shall bee giuen you in that same houre what ye shall speake.
20 For it is not yee that speake, but the Spirit of your Father, which speaketh in you.
21 And the brother shall deliuer vp the brother to death, and the father the childe: and the children shall rise vp against their parents, and cause them to be put to death.
22 And yee shall be hated of all men for my Names sake: but he that endureth to the end, shalbe saued.
23 But when they persecute you in this citie, flee ye into another: for verely I say vnto you, ye shall not haue gone ouer the cities of Israel, till the Sonne of man be come.
24 The disciple is not aboue his master, nor the seruant aboue his lord.
25 It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the seruant as his Lord: If they haue called the Master of the house of Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his household?
26 Feare them not therefore: for there is nothing couered, that shall not be reueiled; and hidde, that shall not be knowen.
27 What I tell you in darkenesse, that speake yee in light: and what yee heare in the eare, that preach yee vpon the house tops.
28 And feare not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soule: but rather feare him which is able to destroy both soule and body in hell.
29 Are not two Sparrowes solde for a farthing? And one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father.
30 But the very haires of your head are all numbred.
31 Feare yee not therefore, ye are of more value then many Sparrowes.
32 Whosoeuer therefore shall confesse mee before men, him will I confesse also before my Father which is in heauen.
33 But whosoeuer shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heauen.
34 Thinke not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, & the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
36 And a mans foes shalbe they of his owne houshold.
37 He that loueth father or mother more then me, is not worthy of me: and he that loueth sonne or daughter more then me, is not worthy of me.
38 And he that taketh not his crosse, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.
39 He that findeth his life, shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake, shall find it.
40 He that receiueth you, receiueth me: and he that receiueth mee, receiueth him that sent me.
41 He that receiueth a Prophet in the name of a Prophet, shall receiue a Prophets reward: and he that receiueth a righteous man, in the name of a righteous man, shal receiue a righteous mans reward.
42 And whosoeuer shall giue to drinke vnto one of these litle ones, a cup of cold water onely, in the name of a disciple, verily I say vnto you, hee shall in no wise lose his reward.
