Years ago, there was a wicked emperor by the name of Dionysius. He discovered that near to where he lived was a cave shaped in the form of a funnel with an opening right at the surface. Dionysus used this cave as a workshop for his slaves. He put all the slaves in caves and then he’d go up and put his ear at the top of it. Inside the slaves were uttering all kinds of harsh and cruel things about him. Then the next day they would go before him where he would repeat everything they had said about him to their face. And it cost many their own lives or severe torture.
Now God is a good king, not a wicked king. At the same time, He knows every thought you’ve had, every word you’ve spoken and everything you’ve done, and all He says about you is "ungodly." Even your best does not impress Him. Therefore, He is not asking, "How well have you behaved?"
