John 10:15 & 17 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: AND I LAY DOWN MY LIFE FOR THE SHEEP.
v.17 Therefore doth my Father love me, BECAUSE I LAY DOWN MY LIFE, THAT I MIGHT TAKE IT AGAIN.

John 11:25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
v.26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?
This is an illustration of why we can attain heaven. Jesus did so much for us, the forgiveness of our sins, because of his shed blood on the cross. Jesus, the perfect lamb of God, made us acceptable to the Father by his sacrifice for us. We will see heaven one day; because of what Jesus did for us on the cross. It doesn't end there though. We will celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ; the final victory won for us.
