How do we know that we are unprofitable servants?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that all our righteousness is as filthy rags, affirming that in ourselves, we are unprofitable servants.

Understanding our status as unprofitable servants comes from a biblical perspective on human sinfulness and God's grace. In the sermon, it is emphasized that even when believers fulfill their duties, they must acknowledge their unworthiness: 'We are unprofitable servants.' This is a humbling truth found in scriptures like Isaiah 64:6, which declares that all our righteous deeds are like a polluted garment. Thus, the recognition of being an unprofitable servant leads us to rely entirely on God's grace for acceptance and righteousness in His sight.
