FK: "It does not do so, per the passage, through works. Rather, it does so through faith ......... alone."

The scripture doesn't say that. It says that grace doesn't come from works of man, but then it says that grace produces both faith and works.

Once again:

Eph 2:8-9 : 8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith — and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast.

I don't see how you can miss the plain statement the verse makes: "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith". Then, just to be even more clear, it specifies that this is NOT by works, i.e., it is not by works you have been saved. Your statement skips this part.

We are saved by Grace. True Catholic statement.

We are saved through faith. True Catholic statement.

Grace is not of our works but a gift of God. True Catholic statement.

We should walk in good works. True Catholic statement.

We are saved through faith alone. Conterscriptural heresy.

What part of Eph 2:8-9 did I skip, and why did you skip Eph 2:10?
