The seeming contradictions, e.g. Paul vs James, must be resolved in the clear light of Scripture

But, there is the problem. There is no clear light. You can stack Scripture atop Scripture for both positions - faith in one and works in another. And, what you then have is two stacks of Scripture. And opinions.

This is not the fault of Scripture. It is the fault of misuse of the Scripture - forcing it to do what it was not intended to do.

I disagree with that...

Exactly...So why do you chose the stack that you do???

Maybe as one preacher likened it...”Being settled in being unsettled”.
