The Advocate

What do you get for speeding? Why you get a ticket and a fine, that's what. What do you get for safe driving? A reward? Only if "no ticket" can be considered a reward. How about if you have a perfect driving record? Don't you get SOMETHING? Nope. The only reward you get is NOT having the headaches of fines, insurance hikes (maybe), and accidents.

The law can only condemn. It can't supply a reward for good behavior.

In the same way, heaven cannot be attained through good behavior. Heaven is a reward. If you were perfect-- if you could follow life's rules to perfection throughout your life-- you can't, but if you could-- you could only avoid punishment. Not gain a reward.

To gain heaven, you need an advocate. One full of grace who's willing to bestow an undeserved reward upon you. Fortunately, there is such an Advocate available to you...
