Your Good Works Cannot Save You READ| Isa. 64:6 The Bible clearly states that after death, there are only two destinations for mankind—heaven or hell. Knowing this, we would be foolish to ignore God’s Word and risk relying on our own ideas about how to get to heaven. Many people think that eternal destiny is determined by behavior. If their good works outweigh the bad, they believe God will accept them. But the Lord says all our good works are like filthy rags in His sight (Isa. 64:6). Since every person on earth inherits a fallen nature, no one is qualified to enter God’s holy dwelling place. Jesus said: I am the way and the truth and the life. No-one comes to the Father except through me! John 14 v 6. Our entrance into heaven therefore has nothing to do with how good we are; what matters is how good Jesus is, and what He did for us. He lived an absolutely perfect life and paid the penalty for our sin by dying in our place. Those who believe this and accept His payment on their behalf are given a ticket to heaven which can never be revoked. My prayer for you is: Accept Jesus as your Lord and Saviour today! Say this simple prayer: Lord Jesus Christ, I repent of my sins, come into my heart, I make you my Lord and Saviour. Amen!
