If God promises to do x if a man will do y and when a man then does x and God does not do y, then what is God?

In this case, a lot more perceptive than you. If it is God who promises to do x, then for man to do x means that x is not anything supernatural, otherwise only God could do it. If God promises to do x if man does y, then if man does x, there is no need for God to do y. Man has done it all!

Excellent! I had to read it three times, but it was worth it. Exactly correct.

Salvation is of the Lord. Man cannot accomplish what is the Lord's to accomplish.
