But Rich, you left off the important part of the quote -- duty only makes you an unprofitable servant. It goes BEYOND duties and requirements if you want to be profitable to your Creator.
Christianity is not a list of rules and regulations -- it's the hidden man of the heart that walks by faith, and not by sight -- that places NO confidence in the flesh and rejoices in Christ Jesus the Lord!
Philippians 3:3 For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.
