How good do you have to be to get into heaven?
Everybody needs to know the truth and they Need Jesus!
Well the Bible teaches us - It can't be done. You can not get into heaven by being good, because no one can be good enough. It can't be done! "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" - Romans 3:23
"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God--not by works, so that no one can boast." (NIV) Ephesians 2:8-9
Here on earth what we would do is hire a really good lawyer. A lawyer who knows the court system. A lawyer who knows the law. A lawyer who knows the judge. A lawyer who knows what to do to save us from going to prison. Maybe a lawyer who is even good enough to figure out a way to get some other person to take our punishment so we can go free. (I say, if it's possible, do whatever it takes to avoid eternal punishment. Hell is not a nice place.)
So where do we find a lawyer that is that good, and who can represent us before God?
