(Eph 2:15) “Having abolished in his flesh the enmity….. (16) And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:” By the cross….. This is the way to eternal life. In fact, it is the only way to heaven and the eventuality of the new heaven and the new earth. One must recognize their own unworthiness, their utter corruptness of character and action; then one must turn to the cross by faith and ask for mercy and forgiveness. The cross is the only way!
