You Dont Know Him

 Good does not get you to Heaven for two reasons. #1  your standards of good and God's standards of good are two different things. See James 2:10 says that if we offend His law at one point we are guilty of ALL. If we steal one thing if we lie once, have one lustful thought that will exclude us from Heaven.  So none of us can stand before a Holy God and say hey i'm pretty good let me in.  He's going to say "no not according to my standards you're not good"  If you went and found the most expensive home in the country And you went and knocked on their door You said excuse me but I'm moving in with you because I'm a good person  What do you think the people would say? No right?  You wouldn't expect them to you have no relationship with them You wouldn't expect to let them To let you move into their home Yet you go through your whole life you have nothing to do with God  You deny Jesus is the Son Of God which said is the only way to His House. Then at the end of your life you have the nerve to come and knock on His door, and demand to live there because you're a good person. What does good have to do with it? You don't know Him. See God is your creator and He's not your father until you invite Jesus as your Savior. It's a love affair. Jesus wants to have a relationship with you and accepting Him as your savior is the only way to live with Him for eternity. It's not a religion, its a relationship. How can you say you want to spend eternity in Heaven with Jesus when you rarely spend time with Him now.
