Are You a Good Person?

If you profess to be a good person that wants and tries to do right, you should receive and follow Jesus Christ.  What's wrong?  Isn't Jesus Good?  Isn't He Right?  How can you say you are good and want to do right, and then God sends you the only Perfect man who ever lived, and you turn Him down?  If that's your case, there's something really wrong with you inside. God only sent one Perfect man into this world, only One, and self-righteous, sin-loving men don't want Him.  People talk about the hypocrites in the church, but God sent you a man that was absolutely Perfect.  What have you done with Him?  Do you know what happened when God sent a Perfect man into this world?  They hated Him and crucified Him.  That should show you something about human nature.

The condemnation of this world is this - that God sent a sinless man into world, and sinful man didn't want Him. If you want to do right, you will respond to God's offer of free Salvation through the Blood of a sinless man who died to pay for your sins.  If you are wrong, you will not receive Christ, and go try to do things your own way.  No one lives up to their own standards 100% every day, unless they have the morals of an alley cat.  If you've lived up to everything you believe, you would be Jesus Christ. You've never lived a day where you've always done what was right, and every time lived up to your own standards of living.  But Jesus never sinned, He did right every day.  Why won't you trust Him with your soul and your daily life?  The best you can do is trust Jesus Christ.  Have you done that?

There is an ongoing battle for your soul every day.  Adam disobeyed God and brought sin upon us all.  God forbids sin into His Heaven.  Every man has sinned and deserves Hell.  Jesus came to this Earth to save your neck.  He bore your sins in His own body, He bled and died on the Cross in your place, and then three days later He rose from the dead, and now He is alive forevermore.  Your sins nailed Jesus to Calvary's Cross.  Trust your soul with God Incarnate who bled for your sins; if you try any other way, your doom is sealed, and you will lose your soul.

The central question is this - What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ?  If you are rejecting Jesus Christ, your root sin is that you want to run your life yourself.  You want to be your own ruler.  You are not capable of running your life; you're not smart enough to be your own ruler. If you will not let Jesus run your life: that is main reason why you will go Hell.  Let Jesus rule your life. When you go down, Jesus Christ will come up.  The Lord Jesus Christ is not willing than any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
