God's approval isn't based on what a person does. rather, he accepts what a person does because he already approves of the person. the person hasn't earned god's approval through the good that he or she does

The person will earn God's full approval if he tries to build a connection with God. being good will not get you to heaven, for if you try hard enough everyone can be good, but building a connection and changing and praising god he will approve of you
