According to God’s standard (the only standard that really counts) a person would have to live an absolutely perfect life to earn eternal life. Not one lie; not one bad thought; not one disrespectful word to their parents, etc. \u003cb\u003ePerfect\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003eDo you think you have fulfilled and maintained this strict standard? Romans 3:19 says, “Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.” Wow! The whole world stands guilty before God. No one can argue that they have lived a perfect life. No one … not you, not me, \u003cb\u003eno one\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003eWe don’t like to think about it, but it’s true …we all have sinned (Romans 3:10, 23). But, you may say, “I’ve never committed any terrible sins. I’ve been pretty good.” Perhaps you are right, but is pretty good, \u003cb\u003egood enough\u003c\/b\u003e? NO, it’s not! In fact, some sins that we consider minor are really major in the Lord’s eyes. Have you ever murdered anyone? Consider this: “Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him” (1 John 3:15). Could it be that we are greater sinners than we realize? Could it be that we are \u003cb\u003enot all that good\u003c\/b\u003e after all? We need to keep in mind that, “The Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart” \u003cbr\u003e(1 Samuel 16:7).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"p5\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eHOW BAD IS TOO BAD?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003eMaybe you are one who thinks you have sinned so much that there is no forgiveness for you. We often offend people so greatly that they may refuse to forgive us, but \u003cb\u003eGod is love\u003c\/b\u003e (1 John 4:8) and He loves to forgive. To those who believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord would assure us, “I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more” (Jeremiah 31:34). Under God’s inspiration, the apostle Paul wrote, “This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners” (1 Timothy 1:15). This tells us that \u003cb\u003ethe world’s greatest sinner has found forgiveness\u003c\/b\u003e and is saved. If he can be saved then we can all be saved!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003eSo, none are without sin, but \u003cb\u003enone are without hope, either\u003c\/b\u003e. The Lord wants “all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.” \u003cbr\u003e(1 Timothy 2:4). By now, you may be asking, “What do I have to do to be saved?” A sinner in Bible times asked the same question. The answer was simple, yet profound, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.” (Acts 16:31).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003eThat’s it? That’s all there is to it? YES! \u003cb\u003eThe Lord Jesus did all the work.\u003c\/b\u003e Simply put your trust in the finished work (death, burial, and resurrection) of the Lord Jesus Christ, and God will save you … right here, right now. “That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved” (Romans 10:9). Won’t you bow your knee to the Lord Jesus right now and confess that He is Lord? No matter how good you think you are or how bad you think you are, the Lord saves all those who come to Him in faith. “All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out” (John 6:37).\u003cspan class=\"Apple-tab-span\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e—C.T.C.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"p6\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eNO ONE IS SO \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eGOOD\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e THAT THEY DON’T \u003cbr\u003eNEED TO BE SAVED.
