You wanted me to do your homework earlier and I will now use your comments to do so, because you are making the same claim howbeit, different words.
Actually I was asking for a little help but you are above that apparently.
First it has nothing to do with who is Sovereign. God is sovereign but He specifically created man to be free and be able to choose Him, to love Him or not to follow, love or obey.
It has everything to do with God being sovereign.
It does. That is the whole purpose of our existence and a moral obligation is part of being transformed into His likeness. It certainly does make us righteous. We are as righteous as we do righteousness, I John 3:7.
How does this transformation come about?
He is always in control, but He also gave man freedom to act as moral agents. We can choose to abide by His rules or just ignore them and go our way. Passivity is hell.
actually your phrase is misplaced. If not for His grace and mercy mankind would still be under the dominion of Satan and would simply dissolve into dust, Gen 3:19.
Hell doesn't exist?
Christ saved the world from death and sin, which is the great gift of His mercy, love and grace. This aspect of our salvation man plays no part. However, Christ's purpose was to enable man to again be able to freely choose to be united with Him If we desire to be united with Him, He requires that we are to work with Him toward perfection, towards being transformed. That is not done simply by believing passively. One is required to grow, to mature, to be perfected in order to attain eternal life.
