Right acting will always lead to right thinking....I cannot think myself into right behavior
_______
If we aren’t able to think ourselves into right behavior God wouldn’t have given us the Ten Commandments and all laws would be useless.
Nonsense....God’s gift was the Ten Commandments ( that’s His action towards us not our thinking them into existence). Moses took the tablets his action...Moreover the Son told me clearly that I am saved by GRACE and not by the law because ALL have fallen short.
None of man’s thinking has ever brought him into right standing with God. Grace and grace alone has done so.
