Eternal Life Goes To...
Eternal life goes to those who patiently continue in doing good seek glory, honor, and immorality; but to those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness - indignation and wrath, tribulation and anguish, on every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Greek; But glory, honor, and peace to everyone who works what is good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek (Romans 2:7-10). There is no partiality with God (Vs 2:11). No favoritism.
There's Only One Way
There is only one way to eternal life. Jesus said' He is the Way the truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Him (John 14:6). He tells us, "Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God John 3:3).
It's Not Enough For Us To Say We Are Righteous
"For one is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh; but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, and not in the letter; Whose praise is not from men but from God (Romans 2:28). Be careful not to think too highly of yourself (Romans 12:3).

Obedience to His Word is a Must
Jesus said, "...Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself (Luke 10:27). He says "If you love Me, Keep My commandments (John 14:15). Jesus said, I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you (John 14:18). He will give you the strength and power through His Holy Spirit Who resides in you to keep those commandments. "Trust in the Lord with all of our heart, And lean not on our own understanding; acknowledge Him (God) in all our ways, And He shall direct our paths (Proverbs 3:5-6).
Have Faith.
The Just Shall Live By Faith
The Gospel of Jesus Christ reveals the righteousness of God from faith to faith; the just shall live by faith (Romans1:17). "But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him (Hebrews 11:6).
Stay Focused God is Faithful
"Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak (Mathew 26:41). Know that, "There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.(1 Corinthians 10:13)
We Are Without Excuse
"Since the creation of the world His (God's) invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by all things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that the are without excuse (Romans 1:20). We are without excuse.
