I would be careful about your confidence in faith alone.

My confidence is in God's grace through faith in Christ's atoning sacrifice and His glorious resurrection.

"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

Not of works, lest any man should boast.

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." -- Eph. 2:8-10

So you also think that good works are necessary for salvation, correct? That's what we were created for, correct?
