Unbelievers won't be judged against Moses' Law - as the package deal that it was. For example, an unbeliever in Japan won't be judged for not having been circumcised in accordance with Moses' Law.
And if he'd never heard of Christ, then he won't be judged for not having believed in someone he'd never heard about.
But he will be judged by "the" Law. (Paul said that the Gentiles who didn't have "The Law" (Moses' Law, complete with all its symbols and rituals) still had "the" Law (God's eternal righteous requirement) written in their hearts. Everyone does.
The purpose of my recent Posts is therefore upheld: believers are not obliged to observe Judaism.
