No one except Christ could keep the whole law perfectly. When Jesus summarized them into two laws, that did not make them easier, it made them harder .. No one can love God with their whole heart, if the did the would never sin against Him.. no one can love their neighbor as themselves.. if they could they would never sin against them .
Rabbi Akiva was being combed with burning rakes by the Romans when he said he had said the Shema every day, repeating the commandment. Under torture unto death, he rejoiced that he now knew that he had kept it
And muslims blow themselves up.. because they believe the lie of Islam.. This man was judging himself based on human judgement , He had to stand before Christ for that final judgement, it was not his to do

Try it again, only this time from the premise that God love and not some kind of celestial con man, pulling a Three-card Monty trick on His creatures.

"And muslims blow themselves up.. because they believe the lie of Islam.." Muslims do it because the believe in life everlasting as the reward. How much sadder then is it to watch Calvinists blowing up their souls and forfeiting life everlasting in these threads because they believe the lie of Calvin?

Are you saying the Rabbi is somehow similar to the scum jehadis?????
This man was judging himself based on human judgement , He had to stand before Christ for that final judgement, it was not his to do He hardley seems to have judged himself, you are reading your own words into his mouth. All that is said is that he rejoiced knowign that he had kept it.
