Admission Applications

Anyone who applies for admission to a university knows that there are entrance requirements. Typically, you have to have an accredited high school diploma. There is often a standardized test minimum score requirement. Sometimes, essays are required as well as participation in extracurricular activities and community service.

In this post, we are going to talk about entrance requirements. Not entrance requirements for admission to college but for admission to the Kingdom of God, or what is sometimes called the Kingdom of heaven.

According to the Scriptures, every human is either in the Kingdom or out of the Kingdom.

  • To be “in” is to be considered not only a citizen in good standing — but an actual child of the King.
  • To be “out” is to be considered a traitor to the throne — an actual enemy of the King.

The stakes for where we stand couldn’t be greater.

So, how does someone get in? What is the fundamental entrance requirement for membership in the Kingdom of God?
