Of course, there will be cheaters in heaven, at least according to the Bible that is. The road map to heaven is paved in grace, and for good reason. All of us have sinned and fallen short; thereby, for the grace of God is the only way anyone of us has a chance of going to heaven. He who is without sin has been asked to cast the first stone? Those sins may not include cheating, but all sin is a sin. Cheating is hurtful, but so are the consequences of lying, abusing, hating others, jealousy, envy, and the list could go on. The sins God hate most are those that hurt other people, whatever they may be. How we respond to sins committed against us also matters. If we can not forgive others. (Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us). then we stand accused. The mother who is so bitter that she turns the children against their father is a sinner in God's sight as well. We must be careful about cherry-picking sins. What about repentance and asking God for forgiveness? There is nowhere in the Bible that says men or (women) who cheat have no chance of entering heaven. Romans 3:19 teaches that the PURPOSE of God's Law (i.e., the Ten Commandments) is to show man his sinful condition so that “
ALL THE WORLD MAY BECOME GUILTY BEFORE GOD” (Romans 3:19). When a man or woman recognizes, admits, and acknowledges evidence of living in sin or committing sin, REPENTS (i.e., change their mind), and BELIEVE the Gospel of Jesus Christ, through God's grace Salvation is possible. Galatians 3:24-26 teaches that repentance is changing the mind.
Matthew 7: 13 NKJV is a powerful reminder of how broad the scale of people not going to heaven is." This Scripture basically says that there will be more people going to hell than to heaven.
The Narrow Way
(13) “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide
is the gate and broad
is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. (14). Because narrow
is the gate and [
b]difficult
is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.
