Where does Christ refute the 10 Commandments? He refutes hypocrisy and the myriad of Law man-made by the Scribes, Pharisees and Sadducees.

Without faith one can not be justified.

True, if you mean faith in Jesus Christ as the only way, but He himself calls for works.

The Law can not save a person. Matter of fact the more they try on their own to keep the law the further they rely less on God.

Absolutely true. Without the proper orientation, towards Christ, keeping the law is moot. That's the Gospel, OT & New.

They think they are doing a “good” thing but the trouble is, you can not work your way to salvation.

Without Christ first, true. Well done.

You continue to speak out of both sides of your mouth.

You cannot be saved by your works...any works apart from Christ living His life thru us is dead. We can not keep the commandments...Christ did and therefore only He has the authority and power to do good works thru us and only He gets that credit....carnal deeds will not count as Christ already fulfilled the requirements of the law on our behalf.
