>>because He necessarily kept Torah.<<

Because He was a Jew living prior to His death and resurrection.

>>His word cannot be made null, nor will He change His mind.<<

But He did change His dealings with man. We are now justified by faith apart from the works of the law.

Rom. 3:28-30, "For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the Law. 29 Or is God the God of Jews only? Is He not the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also, 30 since indeed God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith is one."

Paul even rebuked Peter for preaching like you do.

Gal. 2:16, "nevertheless knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by faith in Christ, and not by the works of the Law; since by the works of the Law shall no flesh be justified."

You are in serious error preaching like you do.

Gal. 2:21, I do not nullify the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the Law, then Christ died needlessly.

Galatians 5:4 You who are trying to be justified by the law have been alienated from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.

If you think God doesn’t change His dealing with man check out the but now.

Rom 3:21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;

No, because he was the Great Prophet and Rabbi sent to show the people the true meaning of Torah - The one who must be listened to. And who still must be listened to. Do you think He keeps Torah now?

Show me who was ever saved by works of the law. It has always been about grace through faith.

You might have a point if ever I had preached justification or righteousness by keeping Torah.
