[cites Leviticus]

Right: that is the teaching of the Catholic Church, that the Jewish laws do not save anyone who is Christian.

You’re no fooling any Spirit filled Christian. Didn’t the pope himself claim and doesn’t the Catholic Catechism state that people can be saved without even knowing Jesus? In other words by their works?

1260 "Since Christ died for all, and since all men are in fact called to one and the same destiny, which is divine, we must hold that the Holy Spirit offers to all the possibility of being made partakers, in a way known to God, of the Paschal mystery." Every man who is ignorant of the Gospel of Christ and of his Church, but seeks the truth and does the will of God in accordance with his understanding of it, can be saved. It may be supposed that such persons would have desired Baptism explicitly if they had known its necessity.

That is by definition “salvation by works”.

Your religion teaches that you 'must have' good works (which are covered under the Jewish law) to be saved...

Neither do the Catholic ones...
