The only use of the phrase by faith alone in Scripture, is in James, and is preceded by the word not.Try searching for {by faith} Then read in context from Acts 15:9 through James.

"Salvation by faith" is fine.
"Salvation by faith alone" is not what the scriptures support.

Try searching for {by faith} Then read in context from Acts 15:9 through James. AMEN!
"But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness." -- Romans 4:5
"Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth." -- Romans 8:33
No wonder the RCC has to confuse and wrongly define sanctification and justification in order to contradict God's clear understanding -- Elected by God; Justified by Christ; Sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
