Entrance into the Kingdom
Entrance into the Kingdom; by Robert Govett
Fourth Edition, 2001, 420 pgs.
For those unfamiliar with the writings of Robert Govett (1813-1901), this book is a good place to start.
It covers, in a very thorough way, the difference between
-Receiving eternal life as the free gift of grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, and
-Being rewarded with entrance into the Millennial Kingdom of Christ, conditional upon the believer’s conduct and service after having been saved through faith.
In this work, Robert Govett not only defines, proves and defends this view, he also takes the reader though nearly every passage in scripture related to the Kingdom, and shows the provisions of God for attaining this prize (Phil. 3:14), as well as the many warnings of being excluded (1 Cor. 9:27).
