I have written the following a few times before.  But it is certainly worth repeating.

Eternal life is given freely by the blood of our Lord Christ Jesus, to any who will believe his message and honor his name.  But it is good to remember that there are the greatest and the least in the kingdom of heaven.

God will perfectly distribute reward according to a man’s service in his name.  It is not wise to consider that all of the Lord’s rewards are equally distributed.  Eternal life is given freely by our faith in Christ.  The eternal position in his kingdom is dependent on our faithful service.

By His Grace
