Saint Abanoub, Poor

JesusisKingofKings

I was watching a movie about St Abanoub and I read from the english subtitles or something, something like this maybe "whoever gives to the poor in your name on the day of your remembrance will be seated with God in the Holy Feast"
Can that be true? you cant buy your way into heaven can you?
it seems maybe like something catholic..
Maybe I read it wrong or do not understand something properly..

If that was true I recommend for all of us to do this...

Also it was said by Archangel Michael to Saint Abanoub something like "whoever utters a lie in your church will never prosper" .. who has never told a lie in church? maybe not many.. so maybe fewer people who go to St Abanoub churches in the world as compared to other churches will be saved or something ? ? ?

The idea is not of buying your way into heaven, there are no such things as "indulgences". It means that whoever has enough compassion to give to poor, especially in Saint Abanoub's name, will surely be pure enough to enter heaven.

fasting, praying and giving to the poor are the 3 main thing thats gonna get u into heaven. one of them can't work by itself!

it has an order by which one does what but i really forgot and am gonna ask someone because its really intersting..one of them brings you up to heaven, one of them opens the door for you, and one of them pushes u in.
