Thanks for posting the definition. It sure sounds like someone has decided faith is heresy.

Why thank him when you choose to ignore what was said? To restate, faith is not heresy. The idea that faith exists apart from reason is heretical. Further, the idea that faith alone is what saves is heretical.

What strikes me the most is the idea that it is heresy to believe that salvation is by faith alone. Salvation is by faith alone.

That's a rather circular statement.

The definition was very nice to know what he was saying. Salvation by faith is all over the bible.

John 6:28 Then they said to Him, “What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?” 29 Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.”
