Will any religion get me to heaven as long as I am Sincere? Apparently many sincere people are trusting in their sincerity for salvation. But is sincerity enough? Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me" John 14: 6. Now what could this possibly mean if sincerity alone is sufficient? If there is no other way to salvation than through Christ, as he clearly stated here, then sincerity alone will not do, will it?

How to Pray Acceptably God answers prayers of those who know, obey, and keep his commands. "If you ask, keep my commandments" (John 14:14,15; I John 3:22).
