though a man say he hath faith

Another false herring. What professing Christian claims to have NO faith? You cannot be a Christian without professing faith in the sacrifice of Jesus. This claim that faith and works do not mix is the sermon of Satan. He would love to mislead people to Hell through this breaking of Gods Law. James 2:10 "Whoever keeps the whole Law but stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it."
So Satan has put out the lie it's okay to break the Law. The Bible says different. Jesus says different. There will be no excuse at Judgment time for iniquity.

What professing Christian claims to have NO faith?

I think that's the whole point. Many there be that claim to be Christians who have faith. But does their lifestyle bear that out? Go to any American bar where people are carousing and take a poll on who claims to be a Christian. What are the chances that many will claim that title?

True Bible believing Christians are not the ones sucking down the Budweiser beers. True Bible believing Christians are not the ones in Los Wages gambling away their paychecks. True Bible believing Christians are not at the strip clubs lusting after the pole dancers. But ask people in any of those places who claim to be Christian and you will find people there who claim to not only be Christian but also have faith.

Romans 12:1
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
