It's kind of confusing to believe those who say that their FAITH ALONE saved them but clearly manifest the contrary for disobeying the one they claim to be their Lord.
Matthew 7:19-23 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them. “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’

paul was talking to the jewish converts in Galatians,
they never need to here about the gospel, they were the one that wrote an account of the gospel in the bible so you could read it.
namely the apostle peter,
they aready knew jesus at a personal level, after all being an apostle of jesus. and eye witnesses to his life.
Paul Opposes Peter
11 But when Cephas came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he stood condemned.Galatians 2
8 (for he who worked through Peter for his apostolic ministry to the circumcised worked also through me for mine to the Gentiles)

you would need a law, to define what a sin is, for that law to condemn you.
and who appointed you judge.
2 And he commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that he is the one appointed by God to be judge of the living and the dead.43 To him all the prophets bear witness that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name."Acts 10

I think Jimbo is referring to Heaevnly Jerusalem when he says "promised land" in reference to Moses entering into God's rest, not the earthly version spoken of in this scripture.
I also believe Moses is in Heaven with Jesus now and not asleep as some say.
Revelation shows us this.

Revelation 6
9When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the witness they had borne. 10They cried out with a loud voice, “O Sovereign Lord, holy and true, how long before you will judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?” 11Then they were each given a white robe and told to rest a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and their brothersc should be complete, who were to be killed as they themselves had been.

28 so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.Hebrews 9:
Galatians 5: Christ Has Set Us Free
1 For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.
2 Look: I, Paul, say to you that if you accept circumcision, Christ will be of no advantage to you.3 I testify again to every man who accepts circumcision that he is obligated to keep the whole law.4 You are severed from Christ, you who would be justified by the law; you have fallen away from grace
