Well quit trying...You're not going to make it anyway...
That's why Jesus died...He took our sin and gave us his righteousness...
I realize it doesn't look that way when you look around at other Christians, but when it comes time for Jesus to present us to His Father, all the Father will see in us is the Righteousness of Jesus...
So quit trying...Let Jesus work in you and thru you...You'll recognize and know the difference...
That’s how God gets the glory for saving us.
He does it in spite of the fact that we don’t deserve it.
Matter of fact, if we deserved it, WE’D get the glory for our being in heaven.
