"But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honor, and some to dishonor. If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work." 2 Timothy 2:20-21

"Good enough" is not good enough
Writing about the fact that all humans are sinners, Dr. Voddie Baucham says in his book The Ever-Loving Truth,
"You and I will never be 'good enough'. God's standard does not allow for a margin of error. Besides, if any one of us is good enough, the work of Christ was in vain."1
