There we go again!

This strawman of justification by the law is leading billions to hell.

It is a distraction from the Gospel preached by Yeshua and his apostles. They all preached Torah as “The gospel of the Kingdom.” That doesn’t mean justification by the law. WE all have prior sin that must be accounted for, and the grace of the Father is the only way that can be.

Torah becomes our way of life if we are truly in him. Yeshua writes his Torah on our hearts if we are his.

To “believe on him” we must have Torah written on our hearts, or there is no way that we will continue in obedience that is required for belief.

One that harbors a belief that they can pay for their sin through following the law makes Yeshua a liar, just as much as one who thinks they can be saved without a life of obedience to the law.

One cannot read James, or John’s first epistle, and come to any other conclusion.

You had better look at when He said that would happen and to who.

Hebrews 10:16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;

After what days? After the days of the tribulation when the nation of Israel will accept Christ as their Messiah.
