then it says all the good works you have done is like fithly rags to the lord. this has always confused me. and I never really know what to do.
Faith wont save me and good works wont save me, so what will? I have a lot of faith, and I try very hard to do whats right and I dont do it just to get into heaven, I do what my heart tells me to do. But since my fiancee died and a pastor told me he was in Hell because he didnt live according to the bible, I have always wondered. He was a good man and he was saved, but we did drink sometimes, and we had sex out of marriage. and I cant seem to accept that the lord would put him in Hell for that, it seems way to extreme, and I find my faith and trust in God disapearing because if it. it just seems way to cruel. I love the Lord with all my heart, but can not accept that he would put somebody in Hell for such little things. Can you help me understand this?
