I was watching tv yesterday and people were kinda critisizing christians for grace. They were mucking christians around because christians believe that everyone can go to heaven only if we believe in God. Even murderers can go to heaven if they belive in God and they dont agree with that. What is the difference really between killing someone physically and killing someone's heart by saying something that is inappropriate to that particular person or people?? they're both bad and hurt in someway...do u really believe that one sin is better than the other???
Yes saying bad things about someone is not as bad as killing someone physically but they're both sin and God hates sin.
As the time goes by, I realise that Im just making up excuses when I say that one sin is better than the other to make myself feel better so then God would deffinitely allow me to go to heaven because Im a good person and I never do bad stuff to people around me. That shows that Im relying on my good works to get me to heaven.
Would I be good enough in God's standard by never committing crimes?? Romans 3:23 says no! because "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."
If we can go to heaven by trying hard to do good works, why should Jesus bother came down to earth and died for my sin?? He certainly didnt have to do that because I wouldnt need him to help me to go to heaven and there would be no such word as grace. As the word grace means getting something that you dont deserve. that is how I get to go to heaven. I dont deserve to be in heaven because I keep sinning in a regular basis, but God gave me the salvation anyway purely because he loves me.
Would you choose good works or grace??
