"So how, exactly, am I supposed to live up to God's standards?" Well, the standard is simple: Perfection. As in one-hundred percent sinlessness, worthiness, goodness...ALL the time. That's the standard. So how are you doing on that? Are you perfect? Do you think you'll ever get there? So "degrees" of goodness aren't even part of the equation. It doesn't matter whether you think you're "pretty good" or "better than most"....It's YES or NO. PASS or FAIL. PERFECT or IMPERFECT. It's 100%, or a big, fat ZERO.
"So exactly how is this 'Good News'?"
