7 Reasons “Good” People Go to Hell

I’m sharing these thoughts above with you because people have asked me questions like these about good people many times over the years. I’m not declaring any sort of theological statement. I’m just illustrating some of the things with which people wrestle.

People who have greater “light” have more responsibility to live up to the “light” (Matthew 11:23-24).

The key is — are we living up to what we know? The answer is a resounding “No!” No person performs up to the level of what they know. We all fall short.

7. God will evaluate according to the inner secrets of the heart (Romans 2:16).

At the Great White Throne, God will open the closet doors and reveal the secrets of the people who stand there. Jesus spoke of this often (Matthew 10:26-27). Skeletons will come out of closets then. Deeds long buried in the depths of memory will be brought up. Unsolved crimes will find their solutions. These are the secrets of men.

As a Christian, I know with absolute assurance that I will never stand before this Judgment Bar. “There is no condemnation to them who are in Christ Jesus” (Romans 8:1).

(Anyway, I’ve already settled my case out of court!)
The way to avoid The Judgment Seat of Christ is to settle your case before it comes to trial.

Christ said, “If you meet your adversary in the roadway, you had better settle with him, lest he drag you into court and you have to pay to the uttermost penny!” (Matthew 5:25-26).

In this passage, the adversary will be God. He will be Judge, Jury, and Prosecuting Attorney.

Christ died on the cross to offer us a chance to accept him now and settle our sin issue before Judgment Day comes. If we die without Christ, our case will come to trial and God has enough evidence to condemn every person to Hell — and he will. There is mercy now — settle out of court. The days of mercy are not without end. When we die, our choice is sealed for eternity.

Well, Kelly, I hope that my answer about good people is helpful to you and your friends. As far as I’m concerned, this subject is hard to swallow. But it shows us very clearly how devastating is sin and how much God loved us to let his son die to save us.

Sincerely,
Roger
