James 2:26
For just as a body without a spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.

Then you do not understand the Word of God and are selectively interpreting only the parts of the Bible that suit your needs. You seem to ignore those parts that contradict your opinion.It can be positive to inquire about Christ's teachings so that you can understand and follow them.

However, there is a sense that many posters are just insistent on their own opinion (or their man-made church's teachings) and keep repeating it without examining the true facts and the information presented by Catholics.

You didn't answer my questions on how you love God and your neighbor and verify your faith without works and following Jesus’s teachings.

Jesus came to earth and obediently and humbly followed GOD THE FATHER. We should do the same.

Final question, What if you are wrong about Faith Alone? How will you feel on Judgment Day?

I will pray to the Holy Spirit to help you on your way to Heaven with God.

I think FreeRepublic should charge for commercials.

“What if you are wrong about Faith Alone? “

We cannot be wrong by believing what God inspired in Scripture. For that to be true, it would have to turn out that God got it wrong. Not going to happen.

The faith that saves is never alone.

“However, there is a sense that many posters are just insistent on their own opinion (or their man-made church’s teachings) and keep repeating it without examining the true facts and the information presented by Catholics.”

Any religion - and there are many of them - that teaches human effort (works) will lead to salvation, will always be man-made teachings.

The only place in Scripture where the words, "Faith alone" appear, is in james, "You see that a person is considered righteous by what they do and not by faith alone." james 2:24

so show me from Scripture, and not your man-made belief, why 'faith alone' is Scriptural?????
