Paul said the same thing.
6For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value (towards justification). The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love. - Galatians 5:6
The only thing that counts towards justification is faith--and this faith is the faith that expresses itself through godly love (the summation of the law).
I can tell you that the jokers in this thread right now that are peddling different gospels for JEWS and GENTILES are as far off base as one can get..........

So that is what is going on.....not good.
Yes, but that is because I also follow the principle of rightly dividing the word.
You will have a hard time convincing people here about that, but all the best
Have you’ve ever read, One Book Rightly Divided, first edition by Douglas Stauffer? Excellent! Best book I’ve ever read on rightly dividing the word of truth.
Have you ever done something good and a lost person gave the glory to God?
Yeah....trying to say the gentiles are justified by FAITH and the JEWS are justified by faith and keeping the law.....<---what they are peddling boiled down....
Take it up with JESUS pal....that is who you are opposing and arguing against
When The Lord is through building His Church, His attention goes back to the Jews in the tribulation. The age of simply believing the gospel is over. They missed out. They are back to faith plus works to endure to the end.
You just reminded me that your doctrine was created to fix the (apparent) contradiction between Paul's justification by faith and James' justification by works. I first heard this doctrine about two kingdoms about twenty years ago.
All one has to do is understand the definitions of 'justified' and they can see there is no contradiction between them at all, and so there is no need to create a two kingdom doctrine to explain a contradiction that doesn't exist. Besides, Paul teaches that the faith that justifies apart from works is the faith that works. So he says the same thing James says anyway.
Not hardly pal.........one faith for all and ONE way for all.......
My salvation does not depend on my works, it solely depends on Jesus Christ.
Quote that passage here and explain how you can conclude it’s the same for both Jews and Gentiles who believe
BLAH BLAH BLAH.......false.........the two have been joined as ONE.....there is neither JEW nor Gentile under the New Covenant....
more false theology from you, like normal
Do you not think things change after the Lord is through building His Church and gathers us together?
Right now we are one, but what about when the Lord gathers us together and is done building His Church? Things change.
