Do you think that you have kept the Ten Commandments?
    
We all think we're a pretty good - we're really not a bad person, are we? To see ourselves in God's eyes we need to see how we measure up to His standards. God gave us the Ten Commandments to show us our real selves and our need for Him. Answer these ten questions below and see how YOU measure up.
How are you measuring up so far? If you've been honest you've answered yes to all three. That makes you a lying, thieving, blasphemer! But wait! There's more!
So far, if you've been honest with yourself, you are a lying, thieving, blaspheming, adultering, murderer. And that's only five commandments!
The Bible says if we even break ONE Commandment even ONE time we are guilty of ALL of them! James 2:10 says "For whosoever shall keep the whole law and yet offend in one point (break ONE) he is guilty of ALL . Think about this:
We all deserve HELL. Can we cover up our sin? Some think by doing good deeds we can cover up our bad deeds, kind of like balancing the scale.
If a person murders someone and then spends the rest of their life helping the poor, giving to charities, doing all kinds of good deeds will that cover up the murder or make it go away? NO! The murder was committed and nothing they do can change that. If a person has sex outside of marriage just one time and then regrets it so decides they will never have sex again the rest of their lives to atone for what they did will that then turn them back into a virgin? NO! The deed has been done and nothing they do can reverse that. We can not cover up our sins and make ourselves ready for Heaven by doing good deeds. The fact is God did not make the Ten Commandments as a way for us to get to Heaven. He made them to show us our sin. God is Holy and can't have sin around Him so we can't go to Heaven in our sinful condition. Yet God WANTS us to be in Heaven with Him. He created us to spend eternity with him. So how are we going to get to Heaven when we are so full of sin?
![]() There is Good News! GOD came to earth to pay the penalty for our sin by dying on the cross and taking the punishment we
deserve for our sins upon Himself!
He could have let US suffer the consequences of our sin. But He loves us so much that He came
to earth, lived the perfect life for us that we couldn't live ourselves, was beaten, mocked and nailed to a cross. He took the punishment
we
deserved upon Himself. That is perfect love!
We don't have to wonder or worry about where we will spend eternity if we turn to Jesus and trust what He did for us on the cross.
The Bible says "These things I have written to you who believe (repent and turn to Jesus) in the name of the Son of God
that you may KNOW that you HAVE Eternal Life."
