Oh noes. Does that mean that I cannot self-declare my own salvation and demand that God honour that declaration under legal threat?
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
Matthew 11:29
The proud and haughty man, scoffer is his name; He worketh in the arrogance of pride.
Proverbs 21:24
8 If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us.
1 John 1:8-10
