The Good Person Test
Your Answer: I have never done anything
really serious such as murder someone.
Are you sure that
is true?
Has God ALWAYS been #1 in your life?
Has God always been more important to you than any person,
money, a car, music, your health or anything else?
If not you have broken the first commandment.
Jesus said, "You
have heard it said to people long ago, 'You shall not commit
murder.' and Whoever commits murder shall be liable in
court. But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his
brother shall be guilty before the court, and whoever says
to his brother, 'You good-for-nothing,' shall be guilty
before the supreme court, and whoever says, 'You fool,'
shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell."
- Matthew 5:21,22
Have you been angry with someone?
If so, you are guilty of murder.
Have you ever called someone a "fool"?
If so, you are guilty of murder.
Breaking any of God's laws is serious.
When you disobey God, you are saying to
the creator of the universe, the one who gave you life, that
you reject Him.
Breaking God's laws (sin), is very serious.
Sin keeps you separated from God.
Sin keeps you from entering heaven.
You have
broken God's laws..
For there to be justice,
you must pay the penalty for breaking God's laws.
The penalty is death
(hell).
But...
there is a way justice can be served
and you can be set free.
