Do you want to discuss verse 21?Why were the people condemned in Matthew 7:21-23?
One can't abide in Christ without being right with God. I think you're promoting obligation to the law for salvation.You need to understand the difference between being justified (made right with God) and abiding in Christ (obeying His commandments).
You can't keep two opposing sets of laws. A divided house will be destroyed. I was confused for years by the errant mixed stuff from the bully pulpit that tries to preserve the religious system. Most of the so called pro grace churches preach grace and demand an amended version of the law be kept.
So if you want to keep or say you keep the law, have at it. If you do any of the law you have to do all the law. Gal 5
Do you want to discuss verse 21?
I've already posted one of them - JN 13:34. You say it isn't. That would be calling Jesus or John a liar. I believe the text to be inspired.
If you submit to the law for any reason you're submitting to being justified by the law and Jesus is of no effect for you. There's nothing in the NT requiring the keeping of the law for its participants.Galatians 5 is referring to people trying to be justified by the law. They are not relying on Christ as their means of being made right with God. Are you saying we don’t have to keep Jesus’ two most important commandments? Why were the goats condemned in Matthew 25:31-46? Notice the works Jesus mentioned have to do with loving others just like James 2:14-17 as he is giving an example of a dead and useless or barren faith.

JN 13:34 isn't from the OT.I am saying it is in Torah, which it is. So I am not calling anyone a liar. He is just repeating His Father's will.

So the reality is the new covenant has nothing to do with the old covenant.Absolutely but one can’t abide in Him without obeying His commandments.
“If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love; just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love. These things I have spoken to you so that My joy may be in you, and that your joy may be made full. "This is My commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you.”
JOHN 15:10-12 NASB
I'm not. You're issuing a call to Judaism which isn't Christianity. So how can you be a Christian and promote Judaism? You're posting in a forum you agreed not to when agreeing to the terms of service.
Why can’t a person obey God simply because they love and honor Him and not in exchange for salvation?
Is being in compliance with 1 JN 3:23 not obeying God? If it is how is that keeping the law?Why can’t a person obey God simply because they love and honor Him and not in exchange for salvation?

And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.
Pick apart this verse.
No one can buy (appease/obligate) God by keeping the law. The only way to the Father is through Jesus Christ the righteous. JN 14:6, 10:9Why can’t a person obey God simply because they love and honor Him and not in exchange for salvation?

Sorry. Judaism as practiced isn't Christianity. There's no Jesus in Judaism. Jesus is indeed the Messiah of the Jews and the whole world, Who is rejected for various reasons.Rabbinic Judaism...um no. Christianity IS Judaism...Yeshua is our promised Messiah.
