While reading through Luke's AWANA lesson with him, we were reading the verse John 14:6 Jesus Answered, I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. That got Luke to thinking and he asked me if a person was good and nice would they still go to heaven. I told him it doesn't work that way, just like the verse in the bible says. His eyes got sad and he looked at me and asked what about one of our hired helpers? What big lessons for a 6 year old to grasp. I am so proud of him for understanding. He not only recognizes a person's ways and actions as not a Christian, but also now has made the sad realization that not everyone will go to heaven. It is the hard, sad truth, we hear it all the time. Jesus Christ is a gift one must receive and accept. Nobody can force someone to accept, all we can day is pray and be an example.
