“Yet I live, no longer I, but Christ lives in me; insofar as I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God who has loved me and given himself up for me.”

Galatians 2:20

You are not good enough. If you were good enough, John the Baptist wouldn’t have said: “do not assume that you can say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father’; for I tell you that God is able, from these stones, to raise up children for Abraham” (Matthew 3:9). He said that to the people who truly had a claim at being “good enough” to God, and yet even they could get replaced.

God has a godly standard of living that no human being can achieve. It is impossible to live a life free of sin. As Charles Spurgeon wrote, “You cannot perfectly keep the law of God, for you are sold under sin. I recollect when I resolved never to sin again. I sinned before I had done my breakfast.”

Scripture tells us in 1 John 1:8, “If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us.” Whether you commit a sin without a heart set out for it, or you don’t even know it was a sin, you are guilty of it—ignorance is not bliss (Leviticus 5:17-19).

Thankfully, even though we are not enough, the Second Person of the Trinity —Jesus Christ— is. Christ died without sin (1 Peter 2:22) for sinful creatures such as ourselves. He was, is, and forever will be the perfect Lamb of God. It is His imputed righteousness —to those who "repent and believe"— that God sees in us. Apart from His righteousness, we have no righteousness to present—for we have none (Isaiah 64:6).

The only way to be “enough” in God’s eyes is to have Christ’s righteousness imputed to you.

AU where Mr. D claiming to be Percy’s dad accidentally counts as Claiming according to Greek god law or whatever and now all the other gods legitimacy believe Percy is his son, but if Mr. D corrects it, he has to explain to Zeus why he pretended he was Percy’s dad so now he’s like “YEP ol’ Perry Johansson is MY child wowie just look at the little fry, you have your mother’s eyes. Please stop standing next to water or you will blow my cover”

Meanwhile Poseidon is just standing off to the side like “how on earth did I dodge THAT bullet”

#EVEN BETTER if Mr D tries to keep his cover by actually treating him like a son #Clarisse doesn’t mess with him cuz after the toilet fiasco Mr D is like “I will feed you to my cult young lady!! good job Peter :)#Percy is like “hey dad why can I control water “and Mr D is like …ever heard of that guy that turned it to wine??#Mr D: PLEASE just help me I can’t keep it a secret for much longer Mr. Brunner: you told him his brother was JESUS???#percy jackson #percy jackon and the olympians #percy jackson the lightning thief #dionysus #Mr D
