why being good doesn't work

[samawat]

The reason why being "good" doesn't earn me salvation is very simple.

When I am good, I feel good about myself and I have pride in me goodness. Even in my goodness I sin. Therefore I need Jesus to die as my subsitute to bring me peace with a holy God. Otherwise, I don't deserve to be in the presence of the Almighty--who is much too good for me.

salam all!
being good gets you in troubles so you are either good or just so so.
saly jesus is not here yet it could be lot better i would of followed him..but i wouldn't want him to die for me in order for my goodness to live?
this is why all this society is based of trichery and traison ..and frauds..
some one have to pay in order for others to succeed??
how low thinking is that!!
why don't you die for jesus?
THAT MAN did enough into spreading love mesage and harmony
and when we say love we mean true love of repect in all aspect!
sadly so many expect that second comming of jesus to be another sacrifice?
may be you will be tested for sure you will?
BUT ALMIGHTY is always alive and cohearant!
