The Scripture says the opposite.
Let me use your language; Gimme a break...
Scripture says both...Problem is, you keep the one and ignore the other...And that's just like may Protestants who keep the other and ignore the one you like...
Salvation from faith and works is in there...Salvation with faith alone is in there...And that's really basic stuff...
The scripture doesn’t say both; it wouldn’t be infallible otherwise. It says that we are not saved by faith alone.
Works without faith is dead; faith without works is dead. Nothing too complicated here... Faith really comes first. Then God shows you the works He wants you to do for Him. Not so hard to figure out, is it?
