Am I good enough to get to heaven?

I have heard it said that many

people think they will go to

heaven because they believe

they are a good person. They 

believe that because they 

haven't murdered anyone or 

committed any major crimes 

that that makes them a good 

enough person to get into 

heaven. 

But by whose standards are 

they judging their goodness 

to get into heaven? Their 

standards or God's? God's

standard of goodness to

get into heaven is perfection

because he cannot be around

sin! Yikes! That leaves me out!

But please keep reading for

good news is coming further

down in this post.

Habbakuk 1:13(a)

Thou [God] art of purer eyes

than to behold evil, and

canst not look on iniquity [sin]:

But please do not get 

discouraged by that 

news because there is 

good news coming later 

on in this Bible study.
