Is Judgement at the door?

By keeping his commandments you are demonstrating repentance and shiowing that Christ is in you. By professing faith you are nothing. Read 1 Cor 13.

The criminal on the cross was guaranteed paradise with Jesus by faith alone!

Lets see if everyone in the world especially non-believers can keep all 1,050 NT laws and 613 OT laws daily. https://www.abc.net.au/reslib/201407/r1308729_17984331.pdf

The thief on the cross served God and kept the commandments until the day he died. Hope you can do that too.

Christ will note to your detriment, that you are discouraging people from keeping His commandments. I think that is the kind of thing that will get your name struck from the book of life. You are working for Satan clearly.

Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. (Revelation 22:14 KJV)

I'm just saying without Christ in a person you will not keep it. People on island in the middle of nowhere will be lost for an eternity unless they hear and accept the Gospel. For they do not know all the laws. And even in the tribal people on the islands will lust after the topless women so that is commenting adultery of the heart. And even if we hate someone we have commented murder of the heart. God will judge the inner man the thought life/heart as well as the outer.

The criminals on the crosses were just mocking Jesus, surely?

Paul addressed that issue:

The Gentiles do not have the Law of Moses; they sin and are lost apart from the Law. The Jews have the Law; they sin and are judged by the Law. For it is not by hearing the Law that people are put right with God, but by doing what the Law commands. The Gentiles do not have the Law; but whenever they do by instinct what the Law commands, they are their own law, even though they do not have the Law. (Romans 2:12-14 GNB)

The knowledge of good and evil is written in the heart of all people, even those on an island in the middle of nowhere, and they can obey the law because the law is written in their hearts. These people you condemn with be in the Kingdom of God if they please God with their works.

Did you hear Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) testify about the grace of God through Jesus on the floor of Congress?

Paul also say that you are saved by grace. Abraham was also given God's righteousness by believing God.

Try to focus. Salvation is through Jesus Christ. I dont care what Paul said neither what Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said. They are fallible frail humans. Tell me what Jesus Christ said about who gets eternal life in the Kingdom of God.

In case you missed it here it is :

"When the Son of Man comes as King and all the angels with him, he will sit on his royal throne, and the people of all the nations will be gathered before him.
Then the King will say to the people on his right, 'Come, you that are blessed by my Father! Come and possess the kingdom which has been prepared for you ever since the creation of the world.
I was hungry and you fed me,
thirsty and you gave me a drink;
I was a stranger and you received me in your homes,
naked and you clothed me;
I was sick and you took care of me,
in prison and you visited me.'
(Matthew 25:31-36 GNB)

Go start doing it before it is too late

Those are all the believers. When a believer was hungry did you feed him the word of God?

Parable of the Pharisee and Tax Collector

9 Then Jesus told this story to some who had great confidence in their own righteousness and scorned everyone else: 10 "Two men went to the Temple to pray. One was a Pharisee, and the other was a despised tax collector. 11 The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed this prayerb: ‘I thank you, God, that I am not like other people—cheaters, sinners, adulterers. I’m certainly not like that tax collector! 12 I fast twice a week, and I give you a tenth of my income.’

13 "But the tax collector stood at a distance and dared not even lift his eyes to heaven as he prayed. Instead, he beat his chest in sorrow, saying, ‘O God, be merciful to me, for I am a sinner.’ 14 I tell you, this sinner, not the Pharisee, returned home justified before God. For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”

One was a born again church Christian [BACC], and the other was not. The BACC stood by himself and prayed this prayer ‘I thank you, God, that I am not like other people who are not BACCs — cheaters, sinners, adulterers. I’m certainly not like those others who are not born again and live on an island in the middle of nowhere [PIMON]. I attend church twice a week, and I give the pastor generous donations.

But PIMON stood at a distance and dared not even lift their eyes to heaven as they prayed. Instead, they beat their chest in sorrow, saying, ‘O God, be merciful to us, for we are sinners.’

Repentance is part of the law.
No one truly born-again would be like the first man. To become born again you have to be like the second man.

Of course. Who is disputing that? In the end what matters is what Jesus Christ said about who gets eternal life and who gets cast out. There are some who think they are worthy but Christ will cast them out and viceversa. People focus on all kinds of things. There are many types of Christians - bible scholars, there are those who pray all day, those who call Lord Lord 20 times a day, the church goers, the faith healers, the prophesiers etc etc. Jesus said it is the righteous and those who keep the commandments who get eternal life in the Kingdom of God.
