Best Answer

The Bible in Romans 6:23 says, "For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." We're not "right" with God because we sin, and therefore deserve death, or separation from God. But according to this verse, we don't get right with God, God gets right with us through the death and resurrection of Jesus - all we have to do is accept that and let him change us.

How does God define a right action?

To God, an action is 'right' if it is in line with His moral will. Therefore, if an action is sin, it cannot be 'right', or 'good'. Sin is defined as disobedience to God, and the way God tells us the difference between what is sin and what is right is in His Word, the Bible. Hebrews 11:6 says that "without faith, it is impossible to please [God]", and so to make a 'right' or 'good' action pleasing to God, one must have saving faith in Jesus Christ. If one knows Christ, then they will know what is right, for Christ and God the Father are one and the same, and since God is the very definition of what is right, to know Him means to know what is right. In John 10:27, Jesus says "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me." As a true Christian and ambassador of Christ, all deeds are done with the purpose to glorify God. An action that is done for the glory of God is a right action, and all else is sin. As human beings, we suck at this because we are imperfect and God is perfect, and so without Christ to absolve us of our sin, we cannot please God or do any right action.
