Reflect

In this episode, Liz and Lucille had a hard time finding 50 good people. After a while, they discovered that being good doesn’t come from what you do—it comes from who God is.

What about you? Are you good enough for God to save you? That’s a trick question! No one is good enough for God! Romans 3:23 says that everyone has sinned. And no one can be good enough for God's glory. Every one of us deserves the same punishment as Sodom. But that isn’t where Romans ends! It also says, the free gift of God's grace makes all of us right with him. Jesus paid the price to set us free. So God forgives the sins of those who have faith in Christ's blood. Are you good enough for God? If you believe in Jesus, the answer is YES!
