Being Good Is Not Enough
There was a time in my life when I believed that good people go to heaven.
Not any more! You may be good but that does not qualify you for heaven.
You may be shocked but that is the truth according to the Bible.
In fact 'being good' is the cause of the greatest deception even among the so called Christians.
Jesus had to tell the righteous Nicodemus, "You must be born again" Jesus said, "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life.
No man comes to the Father but by Me.
" What does this mean? It means that if you don't believe in Him you are not on the Way and you do not have the Truth and the Life.
Simple as that.
There is no such thing as a good human being without Christentering heaven.
You may not like it but that is your problem.
I may sound narrow but I walk on the narrow path.
Broad is the path that leads to destruction and many find it.
That is what the Bible says.
If you are a Christian, you have to be narrow.
There is no such thing like I am right and you are also right.
If you are not born again then you are walking in darkness and the light is not in you.
You may be a good human being but you are still in darkness.
You are not living according to the will of God for your life.
You may think you are a Christian and you may even go to church but without a living relationship with Christ, you are just as lost as the others.
There is no such thing as a good Muslim or a good Hindu or a good Buddhist.
Without Christ you are lost and you don't even know about it.
The good news is that there is room in the kingdom of God for you and the way to enter is by believing in Christ.
