>> Jesus’s work of salvation was completed in full, not in part, HE said..”It is finished”. <<

.
Assertion out of ignorance of the word as usual.

“It is finished” was the traditional pronouncement of the Cohen Gadol as he completes the Passover. That is exactly what Yeshua finished. He has much to do, including saving us as he explained to Nicodemus, by changing us into incorruptible Sons of Yehova. If we are not changed, we will not be saved, as our present flesh and blood bodies of matter will cease to exist when the entire space/time universe dissolves with fervent heat and a loud noise.

Torah is not bondage in any way; it is love, and perfect liberty in righteousness.

If you hate Torah, you hate Yehova.

If you are not in Torah, you are not in Yeshua; those that love him keep his commandments.

You glow with hate of Yeshua and his Torah. You are iniquity personified.

You may think that your good works outweigh the bad you have done in life,... that this will merit you entrance into heaven at the end of your life..... But this is not God’s standard of good; Only Jesus is.

We are to look to Jesus Christ who kept God’s standards (laws) perfectly while living among people like you and me. We ‘measure ourselves by the standard of Christ’..... Once we do this we find Jesus is the perfect ideal human who we cannot compare to.... There is no one else like Him, because He is also God.

...there is no other way but His way. “For by grace you are saved through faith; and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9)

SALVATION is not in any sense a reward for what you do but a free and undeserved gift of love from God. You need to recognize that salvation (forgiveness and being rescued from the consequences of your sin) depends upon your personal acceptance of the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior. It is God’s work on the cross through His Son. It is offered to you freely by His grace. There is no way to earn it.
