You are dreaming!

Take another read of John’s first epistle.

It is plain that anyone not keeping his commandments is covered only by Matthew 7:13-23

You and the Catholics just keep on trying to earn your salivation. That “break one you’ve broken them all” is going to end up not working well for you.

>>You are dreaming!<<

Romans 3:22 and the righteousness of God is through the faith of Jesus Christ to all, and upon all those believing, -- for there is no difference,

Ephesians 6:14 Stand, therefore, having your loins girt about in truth, and having put on the breastplate of the righteousness,

1 Corinthians 1:30 and of Him ye -- ye are in Christ Jesus, who became to us from God wisdom, righteousness also, and sanctification, and redemption,

2 Corinthians 5:21 - For he hath made him [to be] sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him

Philippians 3:9 - And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith

Romans 5:17 - For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.

You go right ahead and try to earn your righteousness. I will trust in Christ alone and the gift of righteousness through Him.

And I testify again to every man who receives circumcision, that he is under obligation to keep the whole Law. You have been severed from Christ, you who are seeking to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace. (Galatians 5:3,4)
