First, he's about as antinomian as you are a pure, bona fide legalist.
Second, where did he say salvation did not require faith? If I recall, that's his entire argument.
Third, I think our major disagreement is how you see Abraham's "being made right with God" and your absurd claim that Abraham's reckoned righteousness is not salvific (I'll get back to that later).
Finally, no one makes a mockery of doing his commandments, Legalist. You guys obsess with this. We are talking about initiation. Getting in the family. It's a faith family. That's the point.
