That makes no sense. If you’ve never done anything wrong and you’re perfect in every way, then you don’t need grace. Few can claim that. And if you just don’t want to admit you need any help, good luck with that.

“That makes no sense.”

Yes it does. Not perfect at all, but guilt requires forgiveness innocence does not. I am not going to commit a sin by lying to God if I did nothing wrong. In turn I am being truly honest with him if I am indeed guilty of doing something wrong which does require me to beg for his forgiveness.

Exercising self accountability and self responsibility before the fact prevents that need to be forgiven after the fact.
