C’mon, ET. Where has anyone ever said we are saved by “Scripture alone”? Is it past your bedtime?

You asked for it:

Sola scriptura (Latin for 'by scripture alone') is a Christian theological doctrine held by most Protestant Christian denominations, in particular the Lutheran and Reformed traditions,[1] that posits the Bible as the sole infallible source of authority for Christian faith and practice.[1] The Catholic Church considers it heterodox and generally the Orthodox churches consider it to be contrary to the phronema of the Church.

Sola fide

Justificatio sola fide (or simply sola fide), meaning justification by faith alone, is a soteriological doctrine in Christian theology commonly held to distinguish the Lutheran and Reformed traditions of Protestantism,[1] among others, from the Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, Assyrian and Anabaptist churches.[2][3] The doctrine asserts that it is on the basis of faith that believers are made right of their transgressions of divine law rather than on the basis of what Paul the Apostle calls "works of the law", sometimes called good works.[4] This forgiveness is known as "justification".
