Romans 2: 5 But in accordance with your hardness and your impenitent heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, 6 who “will render to each one according to his deeds”:[a] 7 eternal life to those who by patient continuance in doing good seek for glory, honor, and immortality; 8 but to those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness—indignation and wrath, 9 tribulation and anguish, on every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Greek; 10 but glory, honor, and peace to everyone who works what is good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 11 For there is no partiality with God.

That's not what Paul says. He says future Judgement.

Did someone rip Chapter 3 out of your bible???

Rom 3:21  But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;

Christianity without Christ is a fascinating idea. But this does not mean what you mean it to say.

But that passage in no way refers to those who have been born again, for it's talking about those with impenitent and hard hearts. That's not someone who has repented and been born again.

So those who haven't repented and received new life in Christ WILL be judged by their works, as it's the only thing left for them to be judged BY.
