"The whole idea that a human being who faithfully carried out a task they were given by GOD is anymore than a humble servant of GOD is irresponsible."
Luke 17:10 So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that which was our duty to do.
That is an excellent parable, one that I keep forgetting about but bears repeating. Anything "good works" that we do is expected of us. What God does NOT expect of us is to fall into sin. When we fall into sin, Jesus is there to pull us out. But the reason of the Spirit is so that we may abide in Christ.
