Description

You think good people go to heaven? Think again.



In this eye-opening message from Ephesians 2:1-10, Senior Pastor Sam Weitman tackles the most dangerous lie that has infiltrated the church since day one. Using a hilarious (and slightly disturbing) story about peanuts, chocolate, and an elderly woman, he exposes why the idea that "good people go to heaven" is spiritual poison that looks appealing but leads to death.



Pastor Sam breaks down Paul's diagnosis of our spiritual condition - we were all born spiritually dead, and dead people can't make themselves alive - no matter how moral they become. He explains why sin isn't primarily about bad behavior but about worship - it's not what you do, it's who you worship that determines your eternal destiny. The good news? Jesus steps into the room and makes the dead come alive.



Here's what you'll discover:



💀 How being "good" can actually disqualify you from heaven

⚰️ The difference between Jairus' daughter, the young man, and Lazarus

🎁 How salvation works (hint: it's 100% gift, 0% earning)

🔥 How the magnitude of your rescue determines the magnitude of your worship



This message shatters religious assumptions and reveals the shocking truth: Heaven isn't for good people - it's for dead people who've been brought back to life by Jesus.



If you've ever wondered whether your good deeds matter to God, this sermon will change everything.
