Being a “Good” person or a “Bad” person isn’t the determining factor of whether someone goes to heaven or to hell

Wherever we ultimately spend eternity is entirely up to each one of us to decide, and will be based on (from a Biblical perspective) whether we’re “Guilty” or “Innocent,” not “Good” or “Bad.”

Here’s what Jesus said to the religious leaders of His time in John 8:42-45, “If God were your Father, you would love me, because I have come to you from God. I am not here on my own, but he sent me. Why can’t you understand what I am saying? It’s because you can’t even hear me! For you are the children of your father the devil, and you love to do the evil things he does. He was a murderer from the beginning. He has always hated the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, it is consistent with his character; for he is a liar and the father of lies. So when I tell the truth, you just naturally don’t believe me!”

Jesus also said in John 14:6, “I am the [only] Way [to God] and the [real] Truth and the [real] Life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.”

It boils down to who do we believe … God or Satan? Satan is the one who whispered in the first place the lie, “That all roads lead to heaven.” He didn’t say there isn’t a heaven, he just wants us to believe that Jesus isn’t the only way to get there.

Jesus said in John 3:18-19, “There is no judgment against anyone who believes in him. But anyone who does not believe in him has already been judged for not believing in God’s one and only Son. And the judgment is based on this fact: God’s light came into the world, but people loved the darkness more than the light, for their actions were evil.”

I hope you won’t take this decision lightly as you consider you’re eternal destiny. May I encourage you to follow the evidence as you seek the truth.

Finally, Jesus says in John 3:16-17, “For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.”

My sincere prayer is that you’ll be found innocent here now! Not because you’re a “Good” person, but because you’ve accepted the free gift that Jesus offers everyone to have their sins paid for by His sacrificial death on the cross, and then being resurrected on the third day as definitive proof for being exactly who He said He is!!
