bear false witness; honor your father and your mother’; and ‘you shall love your neighbor as yourself.’”

The young man said to him, “All of these I have observed. What do I still lack?” Jesus said to him, “If you wish to be perfect,* go, sell what you have and give to [the] poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.

I said do both.

Question: Can you please confirm your answer?

God’s answer:

Hypocrites

Question: In the Chapter Life after Death, you said those who go purgatory are those who do not believe in you, Jesus Christ. So, based on this discussion, who then are the ones considered to be believers?

God’s answer:

They worship me in Spirit and in Truth

Meaning: one cannot claim to be a Christian if one does not act like a Christian. As God explains:

Christian conduct
Be in your best behavior.
1254

Question: So, those who believe in you but do not worship you in spirit and in truth end up in purgatory as well?

God’s answer:

Sorry
Say the magic word.

Meaning: Yes. They stay there until they repent. As God said, the way to describe this kind of “faith” is lip service. Lip service means “support for someone or something that is expressed by someone in words but that is not shown in that person's actions.”4

Question: So, repentance is essential to Salvation?

God’s answer:

Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand.
He came before Me.

Meaning: Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand are the words of St. John the Baptist.

Question: God then led me to an article, Does Your Mind Need Changing? Repentance Reconsidered, written by Robert N. Wilkin, Associate Editor. Journal of the Grace Evangelical Society , whereby the author states:

“The solution is simple: tell unbelievers to believe in Christ for eternal life, and tell believers to repent of their sins in order to be in fellowship with God. Don't confuse the two. The former is justification. The latter is progressive sanctification.”
