About this sermon

1/24/2021 According to recent polls, the majority of Americans see themselves as “basically good.” But the Bible teaches otherwise. And when people believe the narrative that they are basically good, they will not see their need for God. In Matthew 19 there is a story about a rich, young man who is a picture of the majority of the world—he’s a good guy who thinks that doing good things is the key to getting into heaven. But he was wrong, and so are those who believe the same. Pastor Gary shares the answer to the young man’s questions, “What good thing must I do to have eternal life?” 00:00 - Welcome 00:41 - Introduction 03:34 - The good qualities about the Rich, Young Ruler 03:38 - 1. He is seeking eternal life 04:31 - Statistics about people’s views on Heaven/Hell. 08:44 - 2. He is doing a lot of things well 12:33 - Where the Rich, Young Ruler isnt doing well. 13:58 - 1. No one is good except God 17:05 - 2. Doing good things won’t get us to Heaven 19:34 - Christianity is different from all other world religions 31:18 - How can I know I’m going to Heaven?
