For those that have accepted Christ God has judged us not guilty. Praise be to the Lord

okay this might be confusing but hold on I have a good point. I just want to clear up that this is in the CATHOLIC point of view NOT all CHRISTIANS.
God did not make heaven for the perfectly good. Heaven is for sinners. Not mass murderer sinners but struggling to find God sinners.
God knew that we oculd not be perfect so why would He make heaven for the perfect where only He could be while He watched His chilidren suffer hell.
SAINT Paul (note that he is a SAINT and one of the best in history) wrote :
"I dont understand myself at all, for I really want to do what is right, but I cant. I do what I dont want to- what I hate. I know perfectly well that what I'm doing is wrong, and my bad conciese proves that I agree with these laws i am breaking. But I cant help myself....No matter which way I turn, I cant make myself do right. I want to but I cant. When I want to do I dont;and when I try not to do wrong, I do it anyway. Now if I am doing what I don't want to, it is plain where the trouble is: sin still has me in its evil grasp" ROMANS 7:15- 20.
so if saint paul could not be perfect then how could we. There are millions of passages in the New Testament that prove this. Good luck at figuring it out.
Oh yeah budda does not rock!!!! Reincarnation is FAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We rationalize that the sin is not sin. Stealing is "borrowing" without telling someone and besides, I deserve it and so on and so forth. In the garden of Eden, Satan tricked Eve by asking her in a sneaketry voice "Did God REALLY say you were not to eat of that tree?" Then he proceeded to rationalize the opposition to the command to the point where he made it seem like it would be stupid to trust God. This is still happening today "Did God REALLY say you should not have sex with the same gender?"

That's why we need the saving grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, because we will never get to heaven on our own merits.
If we (followers of Christ) truly ask forgiveness and repent (turn away), God not only forgives us, but He forgets it.
Believers will have their names in the Book of Life. We will be judged, but only according to the fruit we produce while here on earth.
Non believers will be judged for their sin, which has gone unforgiven.
Not a pretty picture.

it's called sin. No one can keep His commands perfect. But He forgives you if you ask for it.
PS~ bhudda is fake.

For the same reason buddists do something that is counter to achieving the PÄramitÄ. Our hearts are not good, but my God is.

I believe they think they have a free pass either from the pope or from that Savior they call "Jesus" in spite of the direction in Ex. 23:13 that we are not to use pagan names. (His name means YHVH is my Savior, so it is YAHOSHUA! (The name mistranslated Joshua in other places)

Because even believers can be and are tempted to do what feels good rather than to do what "is good". Sometimes temptation wins out unfortunately.
