...”By this logic everybody is saved”...

Not at all....only those who come to Him for Salvation and accept the gift of life he offers.

.... When they do so there is no longer a “record against them” as is written...’having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness (the law), which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross....and further...having ‘disarmed’ the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.

Jesus’s last words on our behalf,... “It is finished.”

At that moment the veil of the temple, (of sacrifices and priesthood), which separated man from God was torn in two from top to bottom.…the way fully open for man to enter boldly into the presence of God, without further sacrifices or priesthood...and this by his blood which paid the price for our sins which had doomed us. He is now our Great High Priest, Savior and coming King.

(Noteworthy is this veil was gigantic and was torn “top to bottom”...no man could have ever done that.)

Colossians 2:14,15, John 19:30

Generally, I do not disagree.... But anybody with another god(s) is not asking Him for squat. Thus, one would need to keep that first commandment to know enough to go to Him seeking Salvation.
