How Can I Get to Heaven? By Robert Singenis, forward by Thomas Howard Today, and in past centuries, thousands of people have struggled with that sometimes puzzling question. Unfortunately, there are often as many answers as there are people and churches in the world. But this book, which is the condensed version of the best-selling Not By Faith Alone: The Biblical Evidence for the Catholic Doctrine of Justification, will clear away the confusion and give you an understanding that you always knew possible but just needed the proper guidance to bring out. It is written especially for you: the beginner, the student, the housewife, the young adult, the non-scholarly layman. As with most things that are godly and true, the answer is really very simple. And if your mind and heart are open, this book will not only show you the way to heaven but it will also give you a new outlook on life on earth. After reading it, you will know what God expects of you and what will lead you to his heavenly mansion. Imprimatur. Reviews Father George Rutler, - November 23, 1996: "I am pleased that the important doctrine of Justification has received a thorough apologia as this book offers. It is especially gratifying to read so clear an account of a matter which has often been sadly confused in the rush of polemics." Bishop Fabian Bruskewitz, - November 23, 1996: "Robert Sungenis leaves nothing to chance, no stone unturned, no concession for any other reasonable argument." Father Ronald Tacelli, - November 23, 1996: "Only some books deserve to be called 'seminal' and 'revolutionary.' This book is surely one of them."

The Biblical truth about justification,
By Rhett (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How Can I Get to Heaven?: The Bible's Teaching on Salvation-Made Easy to Understand (Paperback)
Robert Sungenis does an outstanding job of presenting the biblical truth about the doctrine of justification, his case is simply irrefutable. Having held to the belief in justification by faith alone for most of my life, it took a great amount of effort on my part to maintain my objectivity as I examined what the bible really teaches about how a person is saved. To maintain the "faith alone" position after reading this book would be to ignore Scripture.

A good explaination of the Catholic doctrine of Justificatio,
This review is from: How Can I Get to Heaven?: The Bible's Teaching on Salvation-Made Easy to Understand (Paperback)
I think that this book is well written and surpasses his other book on the topic: "Not by Faith Alone." It is easy to understand and shows the Protestant doctrine on Justification for what it is: a 16th century invention that has no basis in God's Holy Word.

Being Saved is More than What some Think,
By Pegasus III (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How Can I Get to Heaven?: The Bible's Teaching on Salvation-Made Easy to Understand (Paperback)
"[Abraham]'s faith and his actions worked together;his faith was made perfect through his actions."This is what saved Abraham, and this is what Catholics really believe. Sungenis shows that a person can't work his way to heaven-we aren't employees of the Jesus Christ Corporation. He also notes that the only time in the Bible that the words "faith" and "alone" are only put together in James 2:24. This is when James writes that we are not saved by faith alone. It would be good to read James 2:14-24 about this. But more importantly, Sungenis shows that being saved is a process. Even when we accept Christ in our lives, that doesn't mean good works spontaneously flow out of us. Earlier in Ch. 2, James sets of a poor and a rich man attending the same Christian meeting. The temptation is to adore the rich and ignore the poor. And this often happens. Instead, we must stand guard, even with our faith, to resist doing evil.
