The following are three words from our Savior that will allow us entrance into heaven "if" we keep them:
".....keep my commandments" (John 14:15; John 15:10).
Along with other commandments in the New Testament that we must obey (see salvation plan), one of those authoritative commandments is baptism (Matthew 28:18-19; Acts 10:28).
And His commandments are not "burdensome" (1 John 5:3).
When our Lord asks us on Judgment Day if we kept His commandments, we can confidently reply, "Yes, Lord, I did." Then we can hear our Lord say, "Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world" (Matthew 25:34).
