Hello Jeff,

 CA>> Not sure what your reading, but im certain Christ never said people
 CA>> who commit sins are not welcome in Heaven.

 JT> "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich
 JT> man to enter the kingdom of God." -- Jesus

The quote, attributed to Jesus, is an allusion (or reference) to
an opening in the wall surrounding the city of Jerusalem. This opening
is only large enough to allow a camel (without baggage) to enter into
the city. In the gospel, it is used to express a religious truth, in
a way most people of that time could easily understand.

 JT> Are rich men not welcome in Heaven?

What can you take with you? Like the camel going through "the eye
of the needle", it could carry no baggage.

 JT> Might they be guilty of one of the seven deadly sins?

Money is the root of all evil. Which explains why Jesus dressed
in rags, and never worked a day in his life.

 JT> The idea that too many sins keep one from Heaven, though, is mostly
 JT> attributable to John of Patmos, the author of the Book of Revelation.

There is only one sin that can never be forgiven.

 JT> It is in that book that the Judgment Day is discussed, and Jesus' separating
 JT> the sheep from the goats, etc.

Matthew 25.

 CA>> I guess you can believe what you want, or interpret how you feel, CA>but
 JT> that doesnt make it true.

 JT> Right back at ya.

Is truth relative?
Or absolute?
I would hate to meet someone who knows the truth.

For Life,
Lee
