God’s standard is nothing less than perfection. That means we can’t make it into Heaven on our own, for no matter how good we are, we still aren’t perfect. Even the best person sins in words and actions, as well as in thoughts and motives. God’s standard is perfection and even one sin will keep us out of Heaven.
So if you know someone who thinks good deeds are their ticket to Heaven, urge them not to gamble with their soul. Instead, urge them to repent of their pride and trust in Jesus alone for their salvation.
There is no one righteous, not even one.
Romans 3:10
