WEB Notes: This is the state of our world folks, to heck with the Lord Jesus Christ huh? Why do you think Americans believe this? Their church told them that was the truth, and they believed their dear ol pastor.
In reality, all the good deeds in the world will not get you to Heaven. If you do not believe and accept Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, then you and the Lord will have a nice long talk one day. We are saved by our faith in Christ, (John 3:16, Romans 10:9), and rewarded by our works, (Revelation 22:12).
Roughly half of Americans believe they will go to heaven if they are “generally good” or “do enough good things,” while one-third believe salvation is obtained only by accepting Jesus Christ as savior, according to a new survey.
The poll by the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University found that 48 percent of U.S. adults affirm the statement that “a person who is generally good, or does enough good things for others, will earn a place in heaven.”
