99.9 Percent is not good enough on earth.

And 99.9 Percent is not good enough to get you to heaven.

 

You cannot work your way to heaven. 

 

The only way to heaven is by accepting Jesus.

 

Joh 14:6  Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

 

Joh 3:16  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 

 

She had 19 children, and raised them well with the following 16 rules:

1 No eating between meals.
2 All children in bed by 8:00pm
3 Take your medicine without complaining
4 Subdue self will in each child.
5 Work with God to save the soul of each child.
6 Teach child to pray as soon as he can speak.
7 Require all to be still during family worship.
8 Give children nothing they cry for.
9 Give them only what they ask for politely.
10 To prevent lying, punish no fault which is first confessed.
11 Do not allow a sinful act to go unpunished.
12 Command and reward good behavior.
13 Preserve property rights, even in the smallest matters.
14 Strictly observe all promises.
15 Require no daughter to work before she can read well.
16 Teach children to fear the rod.

 

Would it not be wonderful if godly mothers would set up a few rules by which their children could be raised?  If we had more mothers like Mrs. Wesley maybe we would have more sons like Charles and John Wesley.
