“I am doing the best I can and I’m sincere.”
Even if you could do far better than you are doing now, you still can’t do well enough because you don’t please God by being good (Galatians 2:21), but by trusting Jesus (John 1:12).
Also, sincerity is not the way to heaven. What if you are sincerely wrong? (Remember John 14:6?) If you are relying on your sincerity, then you are saying that because you are sincere, you are good enough on your own to be with God. To appeal to your sincerity is to appeal to pride, because you are appealing to something that is in you, and not to God, for your reason to go to heaven. You must have faith in Jesus.
