I believe you follow Paul fairly closely on this, as do I. The primary difference is that I perceive that when God's consideration of you is that you are righteous, well, then you are righteous. Abraham's faith was counted to him for righteousness, but he was a pretty righteous dude in his works. That's why the Jews missed it so much. They focused upon his external attributes rather than his internal attributes. For the record, I do not see anyone as sinless based upon personal effort. I have stated such many times.
