What is your hope? What are you going to plead when you face your Maker and Judge in maybe twenty years — thirty, forty, five, or even three hours? What will your plea be when he says, “So, what right do you have as a sinner in my absolutely perfect presence in heaven?” What will your answer be?
If you try to say, “I was as good as so-in-so,” that will not cut it. You might’ve been as good as this person. That’s not a help. “I volunteered and donated money.” “I got baptized.” That will not help. “I went to such and such church. That’s a good one.” Wrong, wrong. Not a good one. That’s the wrong plea. Christ is good, and we are sinners. When I face God as a judge someday, I will not plead my goodness or righteousness. I can’t. I’m not. I’ll plead his goodness and righteousness and my faith in him alone. I can only do that because of the faithfulness and grace and mercy he has shown me throughout my life. What about you?//
