Tract Text: Narrator: Meet Mr. Nice Guy. If good people go to heaven, he will be the first in line. Mr. Nice Guy: Well... I try to do whats right. Narrator: Have you kept the Ten Commandments? MNG: Pretty much. Narrator: Really? Do you mind if we look at them? MNG: Ummm... all right. Narrator: Have you ever told a lie? MNG: Yeah, who hasn't? Narrator: What do you call someone who lies? MNG: A liar. Narrator: Have you ever stolen anything? MNG: Nope. Narrator: But you just told me you're a liar... MNG: Hmph. Well, I did steal some candy once as a kid. Narrator: What do you call someone who steals? MNG: A thief. Narrator: Have you ever looked at someone with lust? MNG: Of course. Narrator: Jesus said, "Whoever looks at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her in his heart." (Matthew 5:28) Narrator: Have you ever used God's name to curse? MNG: #$%@$! Watch it moron! Narrator: That's called blasphemy. "the lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name." (Exodus 20:7). Narrator: By your own admission you're a liar, a thief, a blasphemer, and an adulterer at heart. And that's just four of the Ten Commandments. MNG: OK, so I'm not perfect. Narrator: Actually, its worse than that... sin isn't just doing things we shouldn't. It's also not doing the things we should. Narrator: "Anyone who knows the good he ought to do and doesn't do it, sins." (James 4:17). Narrator: There's more... suppose we could put a device in your brain that would record all your private thoughts for a week... and then play them on a movie screen for your friends and family to see. MNG: that would be embarrassing! Narrator: "God knows the secrets of the heart" (Psalm 44:21). MNG: Well... compared to some people I'm a saint! Narrator: True, but the standard is God's law, not other people. Narrator: Besides, even if you sin just five times a day...
