If, however, by faith you mean a profession of faith not accompanied by good works

I'm curious what good works the thief on the cross did before Jesus told him he would be in Paradise that day.

He repented of his theft, suffered for it, defended an innocently accused, defended God against blasphemy, and prayed to Christ to get to heaven.
