The more I trust in my self-righteousness, seen by God as “filthy rags,” the more my sense of 'deservedness' or entitlement will actually keep me from knowing Christ. Hell comes from pride leading to merit leading to divine entitlement. Heaven results from unworthiness leading to desperation leading to grace and mercy.
