We know that Faith alone, without works, is dead. Only faith, working through Love, means anything to Jesus Christ.
There is a subtle change in what you're quoting. "Only faith, working through Love" is not the same as "faith without works". You are implying that we "work through Love" to accomplish our good works. I would say we have faith, and God gives us our good works as evidence of our faith. Anything that we might accomplish isn't because of us but because of Him. He is the vine, we are the branches.
Ephesians 2:10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.
I didn’t mean to imply anything, but I am glad that you agree that Faith without Works is dead.
We both agree that you need Faith. And we both agree that Faith without works is dead.
Catholics would also agree with you that works alone are insufficient.
I don’t entirely know what you mean when you say “God gives us our good works as evidence of our faith.” I hope you are not implying that we somehow lose our free will - seems like you are trying to say Faith alone. Certainly God gives us grace, but are the ones running the race, obeying His commandments, and otherwise walking worthy.
