You are calling Yeshua a liar, by totally twisting what the prophet was saying.

Yeshua and his apostles declared plainly that “doers of the Law will be Justified.”

Salvation will be dependent on “Believing on him” which means believing as a disciple, his every word and teaching, and completely following the same.

Easy Believers will be cast into “outer darkness.”

Intellectual belief, as you and many others have, is the same level of belief that Satan and his angels have, and it won’t save them either.

Will you explain, then, what Jeremiah was saying?

Yeshua and his apostles declared plainly that “doers of the Law will be Justified.”

You've really misunderstood Romans 2:13. Have you read Romans 3:20?...

"by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified in his sight"

In fact, it seems you've missed the entire point of Paul's letter to the Romans. Here's a short passage worth considering from chapter 2:


"For circumcision indeed profiteth, if thou be a doer of the law: but if thou be a transgressor of the law, thy circumcision is become uncircumcision.

If therefore the uncircumcision keep the ordinances of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be reckoned for circumcision?

and shall not the uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who with the letter and circumcision art a transgressor of the law?

For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh:

but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God."
