Being saved, having eternal life, and entering the kingdom of God are all part of the same package (John 3:3)

20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 2) 00:13:20 – 00:14:23

Part of the same question from Christian Liang asking whether one can be saved and have eternal life but not enter the kingdom.

Mike reads John 3:3 (unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God) and argues that salvation, eternal life, and entering the kingdom are inseparable. Nicodemus, who kept all the law externally, was told he needed to be born again—a rebirth through faith in Christ. Being born again necessarily entails entering the kingdom.
