John 1:10-13: He came to that which was His own, but His own did not receive Him. Yet to all who received Him, He gave the right to become children of God--children born not of natural descent, not of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God!
John 3::3: Jesus declared, I tell you the truth, NO ONE can see the kingdom of God UNLESS he is born again!.
John 14:6: Jesus says, "I am the Way and the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father EXCEPT through Me!!"
John 15:9,10,14; "Jesus says, "As the Father **LOVED** Me, so I have **LOVED** you!! Now remain in My **LOVE**. "**IF** YOU OBEY MY COMMANDS** you will remain in My love...Your are my friends **IF** you do what I command!"
John 14:21,23,24: Jesus says, "Whoever has My commands and obeys them, he is the one who **LOVES** Me! He who loves Me will be **LOVED** by My Father, and I will **LOVE** him. **IF** anyone **LOVES** Me, he will obey My teaching. My Father will **LOVE** him, and we will come to him and make Our home with him!!" He who does not **LOVE** Me will not obey My teaching.
John 12:48: Jesus says, "There is a Judge for the one who rejects Me and does not accept My words. That very word which I spoke will condemn him at the Last Day!"
I John 2:3-5: We know that we have come to know Him {Jesus) ***IF*** we obey His commands. The man who says, "I know Him," but does not do what He commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But **IF** anyone obeys His Word, God's love is truly made complete in him. This is how we know we are in Him!
And so no one will see the kingdom of Heaven UNLESS they receive Jesus as their Savior and as their Way and Truth and LIFE and are born again and then will try to do what Jesus commands and who seek to obey His teaching. And accoring to John 12:48 all who reject Jesus and who do not accept what He commands will be condemned on the Last Day!
This would include Muslims, Buddhists and Roman Catholic popes etc; even if they follow the golden rule. Jesus did forgive those who crucified Him but He will not forgive those who do not accept Him as their Lord and Savior and seek to obey his teaching.
Matthew 28:18-20: Jesus says, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations... Teaching them to obey *EVERYTHING* I have commanded you!!"
John 15:9,10,14; "Jesus says, "As the Father **LOVED** Me, so I have **LOVED** you!! Now remain in My **LOVE**. "**IF** you obey My commands you will remain in My love...Your are my friends **IF** you do what I command!"

WE ARE NO LONGER UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF THE LAW!!
Galatians 2:14-16,20,21; 3:2,5,10-13;23-25: Paul said, When I saw that they were not acting in line with the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter in front of them all, "You are a Jew, yet you live like a Gentile and not like a Jew. How is it, then that you force Gentiles to follow Jewish customs? We who are Jews by birth and not 'Gentile sinners' know that a man is NOT justified by observing the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by observing the law, because by observing the law no one will be justified.!"
Galatians 2:20,21: The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. I do not set aside the the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!"
Galatians 3:10-13: "All who rely on observing the law are under a curse, for it is written "Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law." Clearly no one is justified before God by the law, because, "The righteous will live by faith." The law is not based on faith; on the contrary, "The man who does these things will live by them." Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us!
Galatians 3:23-25: "Before faith came, we were held prisoners by the law, locked up until faith should be revealed. So the law was put in charge to lead us to Christ that we might be justified by faith. Now that faith has come, *WE* ARE NO LONGER UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF THE LAW!!"
Hebrews 7:18,19: The former regulation is SET ASIDE because it was weak and useless; for the law made nothing perfect, and a better hope is introduced, by which we draw near to God.!
Hebrews 8:8,9,13: "The time is coming." says the Lord, "when I will make a New Covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah".... By calling this Covenant "NEW", He has made the first one OBSOLETE; and what is OBSOLETE and aging will soon disappear."
Hebrews 8:6: But the ministry Jesus has received is as superior to theirs as the covenant of which He is Mediator is SUPERIOR TO THE OLD ONE, and it is founded on better promises.
Colossians 2:16,17: Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you **EAT** or drink, or with regard to a religous festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. These are a *SHADOW* of the things that were to come, the reality, however, is found in Christ!!!
All of the OT sabbath laws have been eliminated. Both Jesus and His Father have declared all foods are now clean. All of the OT sacrifical and temple laws have been eliminated. All of the stoning to death laws for breaking the law have been eliminated. All of the laws concerning an eye for an eye and making oaths have been eliminated. Circumcision laws have been eliminated. Loving one another as Jesus loved us has replaced loving one another as you love yourself.
Their about 400 NT laws to be obeyed with *LOVE* in the hope of countless eternal rewards for faithful and loving service has replaced the 613 OT laws.
