 THE INHERITANCE OF PARADISE

The freedom which man has been given on earth is not permanent. It has been granted to him for a certain time and for a specific reason: that he may be put to the test. 


God wishes to see who make good use of their freedom, so that He may reward such people. Those who are spoiled by their freedom will be cast into hell.


The world will end when the test of man is complete.

When man's test has run its course, the Lord will take over direct control of the earth, as he already has done with the rest of the universe. Then the good will be separated from the bad. The goodwill inherits life everlasting in heaven, while the wicked will be condemned to eternal punishment.


Those worthy of abiding in the future world of heaven are being selected in this world. Those who obey God, despite their freedom, and voluntarily impose God's will upon themselves, deserve paradise.


During man's trial, all kinds of people have been allowed to inhabit the world. When the trial of man has run its course, however, only the righteous will be fit to inherit the evergreen world of God. Others will be denied entrance into heaven; they will be cast into a world of everlasting anguish and despair.



Selection for paradise

SELECTION FOR PARADISE


Man has been granted freedom in this world of trial and tribulation, but he has misused his freedom and has sown cruelty and corruption on earth. How can God tolerate so much evil? The only possible answer is that, without it, those noble souls who are fit to abide in paradise would not stand out from the others. There would be no basis on which to select them. Only if man is free can he prove that he is willing to renounce all power for God's sake alone. The unbounded evil that exists on earth is, in fact, the price that has to be paid for unbounded good. On the strength of this good, a selection is made on earth from the mass of humanity, of those blessed souls who, consciously and of their own free will, are obedient to God; who submit to the Lord on principle, and not because they are forced to do so.


Such people stand head and shoulders above the rest of mankind. They could deny the truth, but they do not do so. They could give precedence to themselves, but they always put God first. They could establish themselves in seats of power, but they waive all claims to power and follow truth and justice. Man has to be free to prove himself fit for paradise; he must also pay the price for his freedom.
