At salvation, we receive God’s forgiveness and are made new in Christ. Yet instead of viewing ourselves as good, it can seem more spiritual to say we’re dirty or sinful, especially when we look at our imperfect performance. Even Jesus said in Luke 18:19, “No one is good except God alone.” But a lot has changed since Jesus uttered those words, and in this message, we’ll learn what the New Testament says about your new heart and who you are at the core of your being. You’ll discover you’re actually good, you don’t really want to sin, and you can enjoy being in perfect union with Jesus today!

Most believers agree they are holy and blameless “in God’s eyes,” but we’re not so sure we can actually call ourselves “good.”Religion has taught us that we want to sin, we should doubt our motives, and that it’s more humble to view ourselves as bad – or, at best, only partly good.But if we’re bad at the core, trying to do good will be a losing battle. There’s no real victory in the Christian life if we’re fighting against our own nature and desires.In this message, I answer the simple question, “Are you good?” with a resounding “Yes!” You’ll find a genuine freedom in this one – maybe like never before!
