I believe Ro 3:28. .. haven't read it, have you?. . .or do you just not believe Ro 3:28? . . .looking like the latter, placing oneself above the word of God written.
You believe in being justified by your precious faith seen in you

I believe the word of God (2 Tim 3:16) in Ro 3:28. . .I suggest for your own good that you do the same, rather than believe your own word.

Ro 3:28 - "man is justified by faith."

When religionist make faith or repentance or anything else for that matter conditions man must meet in order to get saved or justified before God they are denying that Salvation/Justification is a free gift of Gods Grace. Thats in contradiction to Rom 3:24

24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

Rom 5:16

16 And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offences unto justification.

The free gift is unto Justification !

When religionist make faith or repentance or anything else for that matter conditions man must meet in order to get saved or justified before God they are introducing a law principle in Justification. When they present anything as a condition to do to get saved, in which if they dont do it, there is the threat of punishment, but if you do do it there is the promise of reward, eternal life, thats a law principle, the same as under the mosaic law, do and live Lev 18:5

Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and my judgments: which if a man do, he shall live in them: I am the Lord.

They're under the principle of Gal 3:10

10For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.

Primarily mans religion says that man must do something or he will be lost, that apart from him doing something, salvation isnt possible. All man made religion is under the delusion that they are alive to God, not understanding that by nature we are dead to God. Man was murdered in the garden when he disobeyed God in Adam, and so Jesus called him a murderer Jn 8:44

44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. Man lost life with God, he's therefore dead to God !

When it comes to mans religion, salvation is contingent not solely on God and what has been accomplished by the person and work of Jesus Christ for His People, but it depends on how a sinner responds, so it all rests with the sinner, See Prov 14:12

There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.
