Devil: Ohhh you blew it this time! God wants to have nothing to do with you.

Me: I've been saved by grace through faith, and it's not that of myself, it is a gift of God. Who can condemn me? It is God who justifies.

Devil: You're not good enough to be saved.

Me: Though I'm chief among all sinners, God's grace abounds even greater. His grace is infinite, his mercy is from everlasting to everlasting.

Devil: God never began any work in you. You don't have any fruit, son.

Me: May God have mercy on this dog. Even the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.

Thats more like it. Few people nowadays realize we dont deserve to be saved, we dont deserve grace but it is there. God loves the broken sinners but he loves them too much to leave them that way. the problem comes when people think we have to be God to be God's children. We should thrive to be like God not like Godly people another problem comes when beleivers start comparing themselves to one another or start seeing there denomination as their lifesource for without god denominations would not have a reason to be here.

beware of dogs - Philippians 3:2

In that context, Paul is talking about proud people who resist the gospel.
If you call yourself a dog, you will be given great faith.
If you think of yourself as a great beacon of faith, you will be judged as a dog.
God resisteth the proud, but he giveth grace unto the humble.

"And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.
And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also?
Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth."
[John 9:39-41]

[John 9:39-41]
Jesus was not sent but for the lost sheep of the house of Israel. JEWS. Jesus' earthly ministry was for the Jews/Israel to believe and be saved; they killed Him. God chose Paul to preach the gospel of grace to all people. Jesus and Peter to the Jews. Paul to the gentiles.

Matthew 15:24 KJV -
