King of Hearts not diamonds.

The Eagles once wrote a song with the lyrics "The Queen of Hearts is always your best bet." This was to extol the virtues of a good woman with a good heart of true love, and warn of a gold digging opportunist woman, who was characterized as the "The Queen of Diamonds".
It is even more important to trust in the King of Hearts (Jesus) who truly loves all men, women and children with His Evelasting Love. He proved His love by being willing to die a cruel death at the Calvary Cross in order to pay the penalty for mankinds sins or errors.
It is vital to come into a true heart relationship with Jesus as the Bible teaches that all have sinned and missed the mark. When we have faith in Christ by relying and cleaving to Him and His Sacrifice for our sins, we are granted the Gift of His Righteousness.
There was an old Christian song that said "We owed a debt we could not pay and Jesus paid the debt He did not owe" What a deal, He paid the price for our sin and granted us His Righteousness.

2 Corinthians 5:21
21How? you ask. In Christ. God put the wrong on him who never did anything wrong, so we could be put right with God.
The Message (MSG)

Dont waste time trying to be self righteous or pulling yourself up by your own bootstraps, thats impossible! No amount of New Years resolutions or self improvement programs can ever make you Righteous enough for Heaven. Its not sinning or being imperfect that will keep you out of Heaven, the only thing that will prevent Heaven is unbelief in Gods Provision to forgive and cleanse us. (lack of Faith in Gods Completed Work.)

Hebrews 11:6
6 And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him

If you were in the lobby of the Empire State building and someone said, I will give you a million dollars if you get to the roof in 2 mins flat! If then, they also told you, the only way to do that is catch the elevator, would you try to run up the stairs to earn the million? The stairs would take maybe 45 mins for a good athlete to even ascend. Why try and work and sweat to accomplish something that wont remotely succeed in 2 mins anyway. Why not just get a brain and catch the elevator, all we have to do is stand in it and let it do the hard work of ascending to the top. The only thing that would stop us is not believing there is an elevator to catch, or having pride and trying to prove we can outrun the elevator---Not!

I am the Vine; you are the branches. Whoever lives in Me and I in him bears much (abundant) fruit. However, apart from Me [cut off from vital union with Me] you can do nothing. (Words of Jesus) John 15:5I


The same is true in order to qualify for Heaven, just get into Christ and let His Resurrection Power take you all the way to the top as a free gift of God. The work has already been done, just get into position and receive it.
Trying to get to Heaven without Christs Righteousness and Power is way harder than trying to run up the stairwell of a skyscraper. It would be more like trying to go to the Andromeda galaxy in a Cessna. A Cessna wont even go to London from New York, its not able to. We cant get to Heaven by our own good works, we dont have even a smidgeon of the capacity to do it, the Good News is Jesus Christ paid the Price and bought the first Class ticket for all mankind, all we have to do is get into His elevator by faith (as it were)-- its not rocket science!

Remember, its not about how good or bad we are, its about realizing we need His Free Gift of Righteousness. God loves even the worst villains and can make them new creations in Him. Godspeed in the elevator!---Paul Sames
