The Good Person Test
Your Answer: I know I make mistakes and do wrong, but we all make mistakes.
God created us this way. He wouldn't punish us. We're just behaving the
way He made us behave.
There is a problem with this answer.
It is not what God says in Bible.
We are flawed.
We are no longer the way God originally designed us.
Originally we were God's very good creation,
now we are enemies of God.
When Adam disobeyed God in the Garden of Eden,
sin entered the world and us. It is now
part of us and corrupts us.
But God is perfect. God is good. God is just.
That means that God will see that there is justice.
"He has fixed a day in
which He will judge the world
in righteousness..." - Acts 17:31(NASB)
"For the Lord is a God
of justice." - Isaiah 30:18 (NIV)
What is justice?
If you have broken any of God's laws,
then you must pay the penalty for breaking his laws.
That is justice.
How well have you done at obeying God's laws?
