Answer 2

Don't worry about if other people think you're a good person. You can't make other people love or respect you, but you can always love and respect yourself. When you find your own true happiness, it radiates off you so everyone can see the type of person you are.

As for the religious side, I think God isn't so impressed with you doing good deeds as he is with what's in your heart. Practice being a truly loving person, a forgiving and patient person, and keep looking for God's will in your life, and God will see and love that. The more you make God's will your own will, the more that will shine through you in the good things you do.

Answer 3

Sweetie, no one is good enough to get to heaven on their own. The only sinless one was Jesus Christ. That's why he was able to be our substitute and pay for our sins by dying on the cross and rising again. I don't want to offend you. I'm sure you are a nice girl, but you sound like the Pharisee in the Bible who said, "God, I thank thee that I am not as other men are: extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. I fast twice a week. I give tithes of all that I possess." And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote his breast saying, "God be merciful to me a sinner." I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other, for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased, and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
Luke 18:11-14.
What I'm trying to tell you is: calling your avatar "beautiful" and talking about how good you are is pride. Pride is the sin that keeps most people out of heaven. By humbling yourself and asking Jesus, God's son, into your life to be your Lord and Saviour, you can know that you are going to heaven.
1 John 5:12 "He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life."

Doing nice things for people and obeying your parents are wonderful things. You can be proud of this. These things will help you in your earthly life now, and bring you happiness and success in later life. But what happens after that? Can you be sure that God is pleased enough with your performance, to allow you into His heavenly kingdom? How many good deeds is enough? How many bad deeds is too many? Can you ever be confident in your relationship to God? The answer is "Yes"....Jesus taught us that the "Good Works" we do on our own, apart from Him, are detestable to Him. They are but filthy rags before Him. It is only through Gods Spirit, by submitting to His authority over our lives that God is pleased with us. Then He chooses what "Works" we will do in order to further His kingdom. We do not brag about the "Works" we do, rather, we give God all the Glory, Praise and Honor, for producing His works through us. These are the "Works" that please God, His works that He commands us to do. When Jesus was crucified on that cross, there was a criminal hanging next to Him on another cross. This man had been a criminal his entire life. He never did any good deeds, he never obeyed his parents, he never went to church, he never helped the poor, he was a career criminal and was paying for his actions by being crucified. As this mans life was about to end, he looked at Jesus and believed Jesus was the Messiah. He simply said to Jesus: "Remember me Lord when you come into your kingdom" To which Jesus replied. "I say to you, this day you will be with me in paradise"... This man was found worthy to enter the gates of heaven, not by what he had done, but by believing Jesus was the Messiah. That my friend is called "Faith" and it is the only way to please God Almighty.
We don't do good deeds to please God, we simply believe in Him and allow Him to use us to do the works that He directs us to do. First comes "Faith"...Then come the "Works"
Being a good person and being a person who pleases God are two different things altogether. Keep doing all the things you are now doing and add "faith" in Christ Jesus and you will be assured an eternal home in heaven.
God Bless You...Peace.

Answer 5

Dear child, you lack one thing. Doing good deeds will not get you into heaven. You should however continue to do good things because it does please God. . The thing you lack may be found by reading & believing John 3:16. and John 14:6 in the Christian Bible. I dont tell you these things to offend you. I tell you out of love, because I know these things are true. I must tell you the truth . God loves you and wants you to know the truth too. I will pray for you to receive the truth.

Answer 6

Live a good life, enjoy the good things and the blessings providence has granted you. I may not agree with religion, but I still believe that Providence is not psychotic, and all good people will be glad with the time they spent on earth.

Answer 7

Talk to God, Listen for his answer. You have the same right to hear him as anyone who has ever lived. Be no-ones slave, be God's friend. Everything else will work itself out.

Answer 8

Guilt results from unresolved conflicts or sinful actions. We are all imperfect, and we all have our problems. But pray to God about these things and we can overcome them all.
