We are incapable of doing the works of God in and of ourselves.

We cannot do it, therefore, we need Christ and His imputed righteousness.

Jesus says one thing. You say another.

Yes, this is true.

The corollary is that we are capable of doing the works of God - if God is with us.

This is a very beautiful thing. We can be about our Father's business every day!
