Now to go back to the beginning in what I was TRYING to say The works of the law of righteousness and works by faith to justification
should work together, and complement each other in God's perfect will. If they can't seem to do that, then there is a mix of false religion, and a distortion of the truth. That was the totality of all that I was saying. Wasn't very hard to understand was it? The again, it might be for some.

Your trying to be justified by the works of the law and mixing it with works of faith. You just made that very clear.
Scripture says otherwise. It says we are under law until we find grace and are born again. THEN (AFTER WE ARE JUSTIFED) the works of faith help and empower us to do what we could not do before. Which in a round about way, is the works of the law (not because we are under law. But because we UNDERSTAND how God created us, and what it takes to please him. doing this and learning this will cause us not to think of self. (god fulfills our desires) thus sin would not creep in, because we are outward focused. NOT INWARD focused.
And here I had a 62 year old lady tell me you were not trying to say this.
You both should apologize.
Now.
is ANYONE going to show me were I erred in what I think? or are we going to continue to judge??
