Romans 4:2
righteousness APART from works
And James said: "Abraham was justified by works".
Titus 3:4
NOT BY WORKS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH WE HAVE DONE
HAVING BEEN JUSTIFIED BY HIS GRACE
Ephesians 2:8 For by GRACE you HAVE been saved through faith, and that NOT OF YOURSELVES; it is the GIFT of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.
Notice how he doesn't say "not by works of righteousness will be justified" but he speaks in past tense? This is to do with conversion. After conversion people are supposed to obey God from then on.
John 3:14
WHOEVER BELIEVES in Him should not perish but HAVE everlasting life.
John 6:28 Then they said to Him, “What shall we do, that we may work the works of God? 29 Jesus answered and said to them, “THIS IS THE WORK OF GOD, THAT YOU BELIEVE IN HIM WHOM HE SENT.”
This is a common technique used by people who hate the idea of having to do good works. Quote verses about belief and grace and forgiveness while ignoring verses about justice, good works etc.
I already addressed this technique in OP, by showing how people twist verses like Romans 10:9 to say people are saved by "believing" and nothing else.
Finally you conclude:
“I am the resurrection and the life. The one who BELIEVES in me WILL live, even though they die; 26 and whoever lives by BELIEVING IN ME WILL NEVER DIE. Do you believe this?” Apparently you do not. You think you have to earn something that can't be earned by fallen man.
In other words, because I believe the Bible means what it says in Romans 2:7 and elsewhere, this is evidence to you that I cannot believe in Jesus.
However, this is a sin on your part. Repent of your dead faith, which James warned you about, and start doing good works. If you do not, I am afraid that you will certainly be cast into hell. As the Bible warns us:
Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. (Gal 6:7)
