Christians Must Heed
                                              Jesus




                   God "will repay each person according to what he has done." To those who
                   by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor and immortality, He will
                   give eternal life. But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth
                   and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger. (Romans, 2:6-8)
                   God is not unjust [God is surely beyond that]; He will not forget your
                   work and the love you have shown Him as you have helped His people and
                   continue to help them. (Hebrews, 6:10)
                   God reveals thus in the Koran:

                   We will set up the Just Balance on the Day of Resurrection, and
                      no self will be wronged in any way. Even if it is no more than
                        the weight of a grain of mustard-seed, We will produce it.
                         We are sufficient as a Reckoner. (Koran, 21:47)
                         If every self that did wrong possessed everything on Earth,
                          it would offer it as a ransom (as a provision for wrath).
                          They will conceal remorse when they see the punishment.
                         Everything will be decided between them justly. They will
                         not be wronged. (Koran, 10:54)



                         Fear of God is essential in order to

                          be a good servant of God and to
                                       deserve paradise


                             What is explained above are great facts that motivate a
                        person of faith. The outlook of a person who really loves
                         God and thus seriously fears of having any flaws in his role
                         as a servant of God is totally different from of that other
                        people. Such a person does not commit unlawful deeds and
                        does not neglect acts of worship or remain heedless to the
                     voice of his conscience. In brief, he remains extraordinarily
                     meticulous in everything he does in order to earn God's good
