Do "Bad" People Go To Heaven?
Why Do Christians...?
Sunday, August 30, 2026 - 21 minutes
Ever wondered if “being a good person” is really enough to get you into Heaven? In this episode of the Why Do Christians podcast, Mark Dickey and Pastor Burt Miller tackle one of the most uncomfortable questions in Christianity: Are there really a lot of “good” people going to Hell?They break down why the Bible says no one is truly good, why our “good deeds” can’t erase our sin, and what Jesus actually requires in John 6. They unpack the thief on the cross, the parable of the workers in the vineyard, and how grace flips our ideas of fairness upside down. Plus, Pastor Burt explains why following Jesus isn’t about earning points with God, but about a transformed life that flows from love.The Bridge Podcast Network is made possible by generous support from The Boardwalk Plaza Hotel and Victoria’s Restaurant on the boardwalk in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware - Open 7 days a week, year-round - Learn more at https://boardwalkplaza.comFeedback, or Show Ideas?
