You seem to think that savation is Jesus Christ, plus the Catholic church.
Think of it this way. The law really is religion or the Catholic church.
The law is something that we do. Any religious thing that you do is a work of the law.
Paul is trying to tell you that we are not saved by what we do, which is law, religion, Catholicism, etc.
Trying to be saved this way (By what you do) means that you are under a curse, Galatians 3:10.
The reason is that no matter what you do it will never meet God's standard, which is perfection.
What is sad about this is that you are going to spend your whole life trying to be good enough, only to find out that you went to hell trying to be good enough. such a waste.

Absolutely nothing. Why...did you have a speech worked up for the occasion?

Good luck with that. In any case, you've been thoroughly answered in my previous posts above. There's really no need for me to continue wasting time on this thread. Moving on...

All who are "In Christ" will not be judged for their sins.
They have already been judged and put to death "In Christ."
When Christ died they died with him, Romans 6:3.
When Christ was raised from the dead they were raised with him, Romans 6:5.
When Christ ascended into heaven they ascended with him, Colossians 3:1.
When Christ entered into heaven they entered in with him, Ephesians 2:6.
Are you sure that you want to reject the Gospel and embrace Catholicism?
