Imagine you had an invisible recorder around your neck and all of your life, all it ever did was record whenever you said to somebody else you ought. It only ever recorded when you told somebody else how they ought to live. In other words, it only recorded your own moral standards, the moral standards that you imposed on other people. It didn't record anything else but what you believe was right or wrong. And what Schaeffer says is what God can do on judgment day is he'll stand in front of people and he'll say, 'Look, you never heard about Jesus Christ or you never heard about or read the Bible. Hey, I'm a fair-minded God. Let me show you what I'm going to judge you by. And then he takes that little recorder off from around their necks, which they didn't know was there, and he says, "I'm going to judge you by your own moral standards." And he plays it. And Schaeffer says there's not a person on the face of the earth that will be able to pass that test.
