Are You A Good Person? Most people would say, “Yes, I’m good compared to most people”.
But, what about compared to God’s standards? God’s moral standard is the 10
Commandments.
Have you ever told a lie? If you have, you broke the 8th commandment and that makes you a
liar. How many murders must you commit to be a murderer? Just one. Therefore, if you
have told even one small lie, you are a liar.
You shall not steal. (Have you ever stolen anything? Regardless of its value)
You shall not make for yourself an idol. (Have you ever put anything before God; Such as a
hobby, your job or even your family?)
You shall not commit adultery. (Jesus said in Matthew 5:27-28, "everyone who looks at a
woman with lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart"; this also
includes sex before marriage).
The Bible says in Rev. 21:8 and 1 Cor. 6:9-10 that all liars shall have their part in the Lake of
Fire and that no thief, idolater or adulterer will inherit the Kingdom of God.
Romans 3:23 says that everyone is a sinner; “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of
God”.
If you honestly judge yourself with God’s standard, you will see that you have offended God
and you will be guilty on Judgment Day, “For the Wages of sin is death, but the gift of
God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 3:23).
Baptism, attending church, your apologies or good works cannot remove your sins. Isaiah
64:6 teaches that even your good deeds are "as filthy rags" to God.
