If I tell the righteous man that he will surely live, but then he trusts in his righteousness and does evil, none of the righteous things he has done will be remembered; he will die for the evil he has done.
Ezekiel 33:13
Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God.
Romans 8:8
Therefore no one will be declared righteous in his sight by observing the law;
Romans 3:20
Not that we are competent in ourselves to claim anything for ourselves, but our competence comes from God.
2 Corinthians 3:5
