The first guaranteed way to die in your sins is to be completely content with your own

ability to please God.

Believe that you can be good enough or be moral enough or have good deeds that outweigh

on some imaginary scale the weight of your bad deeds.

Be Self-righteous.

Welcome to Grace To You with John MacArthur.

I'm your host, Phil Johnson.

You hear the gospel, you're convicted of your sin and you profess faith in Christ,

and yet one day you learn the horrible truth that you are not going to heaven.

Jesus said that many people who call him Lord will not get into heaven.

How can you make sure that you're not one of them?

How can you be sure that doesn't happen to you that you don't miss out on heaven?

John MacArthur answers that crucial question today on Grace To You in a message titled

Four Ways to Miss Heaven.

It's part of his series that's taking you through the New Testament beginning to end.

Follow along now as John helps you understand critical truths and

asks some questions that can help you know your true standing before God.

We've all heard the expression.

He has nobody to blame but himself.
