Your trying to justify yourself? Are you so high-minded that you will actually tell the public that your able to keep a commandment of God without his grace?

I find you very offensive and self-righteous. Nevertheless I will assume it's because you are a new-born Christian and don't know any better yet.

When a Christian walks though a dark alley and sees those in their sins he does not say to himself I would never become like that, I could never degrade to that low of a level. When he visits a prison he does not say, these people are here because they belong here but I would never be that bad. No! He reflects upon the scripture which says we are all as an unclean thing, filthy in the eyes of God in our unregenerate nature.

He understands that only the grace of God has brought him thus far and only the grace of God will get him home.

It was the pharisee (and still is)who boldly declares before God and men that he is righteous and can fulfill the commandments of God by his own righteousness.
