He said in one way or another. Just because it doesn't line up perfectly doesn't mean it's not a concept that can be observed in Christianity or just in human nature. If you're an ass, it'll eventually catch up with you (you'll eventually make the wrong person angry and screw yourself in the end). If you're a nice guy eventually that'll catch up with you (even if stuff tends to go wrong, eventually someone will see the good in you and help you out). Typically people who are so up their own asses as to say "I'm a great person" typically aren't or they have a really loose definition of what a good person is. And the 10 commandments aren't the be all end all of good/bad, despite what you want to believe.
Which is why I specifically stated that I obey the commandments rather than a crazy statement like I don't sin. Sloth, pride, and lust are certainly sins that I commit, and that's why I need Jesus to help me.
