This attitude: mother of Christ (Apoc. 12) isn’t Mary, water (Jonh 3) isn’t baptism, “not by faith alone” (James 2) means the opposite — is a good illustration why Protestant claims of interest in the Holy Scripture are so comical.

I admit there are many things about your church I don't know (but am fast learning)...But as far as being an authority on the Scriptures, your church IS NOT...

If your pope can't see faith 'alone' anywhere in the scripture, he'd miss a Cadillac sittin' in his living room...

Eph 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Eph 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Rom 3:24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

The scripture doesn't get any more simple than this...If you guys don't get this, you won't get none of it...

Amen, Iscool. There are none so blind who cannot, or will not, see.

I see its opposite in the passage directly treating this issue in the Letter of James. Ephesians 2 does not say "faith alone": it teaches grace alone, which is the Catholic teaching. So does Romans 3:24.
