You ever read (or hear of) the Screwtape Letters C.S. Lewis? The "You're a good person" is one of the 3 most poisonous lies that one can tell someone if you are trying to get them into Hell. If you have read them, correct me if I'm wrong, but the 3 lies are 1) Tell them there is no God (e.g. Teaching evolution), 2) Tell them they have plenty of time left (the Bible teaches that tomorrow is not guaranteed), and 3) Tell them they are a good person (so they think God will let them into heaven because they are good or due to their good deeds; the Bible teaches that no one enters into Heaven except through Jesus).
I’m just comparing my actions to other peoples actions and try look objectively on them, and to me I seem like a good person (well compared to all the shit ones atleast), but I always think to myself I need to get better, no one is at their 100% power level, you can always improve
It's not showing me which of my comments you're replying to so I don't know what you're referencing. You sound sure of yourself though so that must be nice.
Oh haha, there it is. The C.S. Lewis comment. Yes. I think I know the answer to my own loaded question. Pray tell me more about C.S. Lewis' opinion on the after life. And please alert me to his qualifications on the matter aside from being just another dude who likes the New Testament.
