Clearly you are unable to have faith in Jesus ONLY because you are too enamored with faith in yourself. Your faith in YOU makes it impossible to have the righteousness of Christ imputed to you because you do not BELIEVE Jesus lived and kept the law FOR YOU AND ME. Your loss, cultist ... and the end thereof is horrible to contemplate.

——>you do not BELIEVE Jesus lived and kept the law FOR YOU AND ME

You literally have no idea what you are talking about.

Christ kept the law perfectly, so that mankind would not suffer eternal death, under the CONDEMNATION of the law.

“So the author of the law, the Son of God, had to die because His Law could not be changed. It stands eternal, forever, the law of liberty and righteousness, the very character of God put in words. By dying in our place, He has offered His perfection, His ability to keep the Law of God perfectly, to you a sinner. The demands of the Law of God are met, paid for in full. By believing on Jesus Christ in this matter, you can put on His robe of Righteousness and God will consider you to be perfect, a keeper of the Law, fit to live with Him forever!”

Who was Jesus Christ
and why did He have to Die?

I have some news for you. Because of what Christ did during his life and death, and life again, on this earth, Christians are under an even higher duty to keep His law. You are not excused in any way, shape, or form.

Matthew 5:
17Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

18For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

19Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

20For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.

Who was Christ talking to? HIS PEOPLE. We are the REMNANT of HIS PEOPLE. Christians are HIS PEOPLE.
