The Good Aren't Saved


“For there is no partiality with God. For all who have sinned without the Law will also perish without the Law; and all who have sinned under the Law will be judged by the Law; for not the hearers of the Law are just before God, but the doers of the Law will be justified. For when Gentiles who do not have the Law do instinctively the things of the Law, these, not having the Law, are a law to themselves, in that they show the work of the Law written in their hearts, their conscious bearing witness, and their thoughts alternately accusing or else defending them, on the day when according to my Gospel, God will judge the secrets of men through Christ Jesus.” Romans 2:11-16

Someone sent me a YouTube video link recently to illustrate this point. Do you know who is leader of the largest group of “believers” in the world? I hope you can take time to watch this and think of the hearts of all the “good” people who may be buying this message.

This video is not a political statement in any way, as I know the way this video concludes may disappoint some of you, so watch and listen for the issue of how being responsible for your own life is enough to self-save you; that there are “many ways” to reach God. Because the Bible says “good people are NOT saved by their works”.

Know His Word. Take care. Your servant & friend in Christ, Darlene

PS: Ongoing Requests: Denny just had heart surgery. Bill - unspoken request; Australians recovering from natural disasters ; encouragement for support workers still labouring. God’s hands on new USA political administration. Barb to find the new job God has for her; wisdom for doctors caring for Doris, Gary, Michael, David & Adrian. Randy’s family moving to Canada and his ministry. New work projects for me. Amazing ways God is using the WeakDay Devotions lately!
