But I Was
A Good
Person!

“All have turned away,
They have together become worthless;
There is no one who does good
Not Even One.”

Romans 3:12

BeforeTheThrone If you ask most people if they were to die and stand before Christ, what would they say why they should enter heaven, and the most common answer is…

I’m A Good Person

Well, according to God’s Word, that is sadly not the right answer.

Romans 3:12 says, there is NO ONEno matter how many honorable, good, and charitable things they have done in their lives, no matter how much love, kindness, or generosity, self-sacrifice and charitable giving or contributions to mankind or awards won or received justifies entrance into heaven.

Any sentence that begins with “I” will be the wrong answer!

You see, the Bible says that we are saved by God’s mercy through Christ dying for the sins of the world on the cross. It was His atonement (i.e. payment) for our sins that qualifies all who confess this openly and believe it in their hearts and are repentant for their sins. (Romans 10:9, Acts 3:19) Then and only then are your sins wiped clean and you are justified to enter into eternal glory.

Friend, for some (maybe even you) this is a hard saying, but please heed this message of Good News (literally “The Gospel”) that salvation and eternity are a free gift and available for all that believe the message of salvation through Jesus Christ.

Being 'good' saves no one. Only Christ can save. The only thing that is left is whether you believe and receive this or not…and that Is Entirely Up To YOU.
