The part that you quote explains the Catholic teaching that works of the law, especially Jewish Law, do not save, because they are not what the New Testament consistently calls “good works”

BECAUSE??

Likewise...

...that works of the law, especially Catholic Law, do not save, because they are not what the New Testament consistently calls "requirements."

works of the law, especially Catholic Law, do not save

Aha. True that, they don't. But they teach you something.

When I hear this ridiculous talk (i.e., good works that save are not obedience to the “Law”), I often wonder if they get it that the “Law of Moses” contained the Ten Commandments. If the “good works” RCs claim must be done to be saved don't include not murdering, not committing adultery, not stealing, not honoring parents, not worshiping Almighty God alone, etc., then what kind of works ARE they????
