Sunday, Tim Keller: What Is the Gospel?

BURNING THE BIBLE VS. BURNING THE KORAN IN THE US, OR FIGHT THE POWER

DO YOU UNDERSTAND THE GOOD NEWS OF THE GOSPEL?

Another similar answer:

According to Jesus, no man is too sinful to be saved, only too righteous. The Pharisee not only does not want God’s grace, He disdains it. The reason, in his mind, is that he does not need it, for his righteousness (in law-keeping as he defines it) is sufficient, indeed, more than enough. The penitent sinner goes away justified, by grace, while the Pharisee goes away condemned, by his own works and words.

The worst misconception is thinking we're too good to need a Savior. The best is to know we're a sinner in need of a Savior.
