Precisely the difference between spirituality and religion. That phrase was said often by me to my children in their formative years. You do the right thing because it's the right thing to do.
Jesus said in the Sermon on the mount that you can't buy your way into heaven or justify yourself as righteous, you have to accept God's grace & forgiveness. BTW If you don't accept forgiveness, the only way to avoid feelings of Guilt or blame is to twist reality of blame others & circumstances.
