I think the sin of the Jews was to believe too much in their works. Works without faith are useless and faith without works is useless.

If a Jew can't be saved by works, how can a believer be saved by works? I think the verse in James that says faith without works is dead has been mis-interpreted by some. You see, faith is an action word. We accept Christ by faith, and iif we don't operate our faith by confessing Him as our Lord and Savior, of course faith is dead. I believe the Bible commands us to use our faith to get thinks from God, like healing. After a person is saved, the Bible says He has the measure of faith. We cannot be saved without grace and faith.

Mindonfire, It's all about faith in a God who came to earth to save you.

Revelation
20:11 Then I saw a large white throne and the one who was seated on it; the earth and the heaven fled from his presence, and no place was found for them.
20:12 And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne. Then books were opened, and another book was opened – the book of life. So the dead were judged by what was written in the books, according to their deeds.
20:13 The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and Death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each one was judged according to his deeds.
20:14 Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death – the lake of fire.
20:15 If anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, that person was thrown into the lake of fire.

Why doesn't it mention faith? Confused or disgusted

why doesn't it mention faith in the day of judgment?

look..

Psalms - Chapter 1

Psa 1:1 Blessed [is] the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
Psa 1:2 But his delight [is] in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
Psa 1:3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
Psa 1:4 The ungodly [are] not so: but [are] like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
Psa 1:5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
Psa 1:6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

you know at he end it says who is on the outside of the kingdom?

Rev 22:14 Blessed [are] they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Rev 22:15 For without [are] dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

Go backwards FFT..back to Genesis..and Cain knew his wife...

how? from where? They are not in the Garden of Eden, they are not in paradise, they are not in the kingdom of God.

They are those that have no faith, and they do not believe that there is even a God to come into judgment with.
Who are those who fear judgment, but those who believe that it truly exists.

And the Sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair to look upon. And they took them for their wives.

There is in the law about taking wives from countries round about, and not mixing with them.

But those who Abide with God and do not leave their first estate in the new earth and heaven, will neither marry nor be given in marriage but will be as the Angels in heaven.

So no faith, no judgment. Just death as beasts.

Jesus Christ sits at the right hand of the Father. Jesus sent us the comforter, the Holy Spirit. We serve the resurrected Christ.

I have no idea what you are trying to say. Why don't explain your thelogy. Of course, God the Father and Son are in the third heaven. Yes, the Kingdom of God is in the Believer, but not in the natural way.
