CHRISTIAN PERSPECTIVE - Dr Peter Hammond - How Do We Get to Heaven? A Biblical Answer to an Eternal Question

This discussion addresses a fundamental question: how does someone get to heaven? Using recent public comments as a starting point, it clarifies that salvation is not achieved through good works, religious rituals, or personal achievements—no matter how noble. The biblical answer is that heaven is a gift from God, received by grace alone through faith alone in Jesus Christ alone. The conversation breaks down why no one is "good enough" by God's perfect standard, explaining concepts like justification and sanctification. The essential takeaway is that eternal life comes through the atonement of Christ on the cross, not through our own efforts, offering a clear and direct path to reconciliation with God.
