Romans 2:4 “Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?”The reason you are still breathing is not luck. It is not chance. It is not your goodness. It is the goodness of God.God’s goodness is giving you time. Time to hear the Gospel. Time to repent. Time to believe. Every heartbeat is mercy. And here is the Gospel: Jesus Christ died for your sins. He was buried. He rose again the third day.The Gospel is what He did at Calvary — not what you do on earth.Salvation is not earned. It is received.But you must choose what you will trust.False Gospel #1: “I’m a good person. My good will outweigh my bad.” God says otherwise. “For all have sinned…” (Romans 3:23 KJV)False Gospel #2: “My rituals will save me.” Rituals cannot wash away sin. Only the blood of Christ can.False Gospel #3: “My church will save me.” A building cannot save. A preacher cannot save. Leadership cannot save.The church is a gathering of saved people — not a place where lost people earn salvation.TRUE GOSPEL: Romans 3:20 “Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.” The law exposes your sin. The Gospel saves your soul.There is only one thing keeping you from hell — the Gospel of Christ.Do not despise the goodness of God.
